PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Sotol (Dasylirion spp.) is a resilient desert plant that sustains ecosystems, cultures and livelihoods in Chihuahua Desert. Our review highlights its nutritional properties, traditional uses and potential new applications in food, pharmaceuticals, renewable energy and water remediation. By synthesizing evidence across disciplines, we show how sotol can

Perlite toxicology and epidemiology – a review [PDF]
Inhalation Toxicology, 2014 Perlite is a generic name for an amorphous volcanic alumina-silicate rock that expands by a factor of 4-20 when rapidly heated to 1400-1800 °F (760-980 °C). Both the ore and the expanded product have extensive and widespread commercial applications. Limited data on the toxicology of perlite in animal studies indicate that the LD₅₀ (oral ingestion) is ...

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2023 Abstract The thermal resistance of concrete significantly influences the energy consumption of the building. Consequently, concrete with high thermal resistance can contribute to the envelope’s energy efficiency. In order to obtain the thermal conductivity performance required for the passive house standard using the principles of ...

Tribological performance of volcanic rock (perlite)-filled phenolic-based brake friction composites
Journal of King Saud University: Engineering SciencesThe present work investigated the influence of perlite on the tribological properties of phenolic-based brake friction composites. The composites were manufactured by mechanical mixing and compression moulding at different perlite loadings as 0%, 5%, 10%
