Force‐Induced Control of Circularly Polarized Luminescence With Rotaxane Architecture

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Force‐induced reversible on/off switching of circularly polarized luminescence is achieved with a rotaxane‐based supramolecular mechanophore. The mechanophore, featuring a chiral helicene luminophore, is incorporated as a first network cross‐linker into a double‐network organogel.

Tg as an index of conversion in PMDI-impregnated wood

open access: yesBioResources, 2007
It is well established that the glass transition temperature (Tg) is a sensitive measure of cure in neat thermosets. As cure advances, network mobility declines and the Tg rises in a systematic fashion. This study sought to determine if such a relationship exists for polymeric isocyanate adhesives (pMDI) cured in the presence of wood.

Dose proportionality of fluticasone propionate from hydrofluoroalkane pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDIs) and comparability with chlorofluorocarbon pMDIs

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine, 2000
Fluticasone propionate pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDIs) containing the hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) propellant, HFA 134a, are being developed to replace existing chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) pMDIs. This is part of the ongoing worldwide project to limit the damage to the earth's ozone layer.The in vivo performance and dose proportionality of fluticasone

Dose-response Protective Effect of Salbutamol on Methacholine Airway Responsiveness using Pressurized Metered Dose Inhalers and Turbuhalers

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 1998
The purpose of this study was to estimate the relative dose potency of salbutamol Turbuhaler compared with salbutamol pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI) with respect to the protective effect against methacholine bronchoconstriction.

Fiberboard Made from Scrap Denim: Characterization of its Properties by Effective Bulk Modulus Elastography

open access: yesBioResources, 2023
Fiberboards from scrap denim were fabricated using two different resins, melamine urea formaldehyde (MUF) and polymeric methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (pMDI). Resin content and MUF-pMDI weight ratio were studied. Physical and mechanical tests determined

The Effects of Using Different Adhesive on the Thickness Swelling Ratio of LVL Produced from Scotch Pine

open access: yesBioResources, 2022
Most wood properties are affected by changes in moisture content below the wood fiber saturation point. In this study, the thickness swelling ratios of laminated veneer lumber (LVL) produced from Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) bonded by using ...

Bronchodilator responsiveness and onset of effect with budesonide/formoterol pMDI in COPD [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine, 2011
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients are thought to have limited bronchodilator response, determined by changes in forced expiratory volume in 1s (FEV(1)). In this study, we assessed bronchodilator response in patients with COPD using not only FEV(1) but also changes in lung volume expressed as forced vital capacity (FVC) and ...
