Sustainable dyeing of silk with curled dock (Rumex crispus) extract for trace element removal, ultraviolet protection, antimicrobial and anti‐oxidant activity

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the dyeability and functionality of silk dyed with curled dock leaf extract. The effects of sugar content and turbidity in the extracted dye solution on dyeing were analysed, along with K/S values and colour fastness, under varying temperatures and times.

Effects of Injection Rate Profile on Combustion Process and Emissions in a Diesel Engine

Journal of Combustion, 2017
When multi-injection is implemented in diesel engine via high pressure common rail injection system, changed interval between injection pulses can induce variation of injection rate profile for sequential injection pulse, though other control parameters ...

If You Want Help, You'd Better Be Green! Investigating the Effects of Sustainability Perceptions on Customer Co‐Creation in New Product Development

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academic Summary This research examines whether and how a firm's sustainable image increases customer co‐creation in new product development (NPD). Across four studies, two scenario‐based experiments (Study 1a: n = 184; Study 2a: n = 285) and two behavior‐based idea contests (Study 1b: n = 197; Study 2b: n = 396), this article evaluates ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Reduced contrail radiative effect for fleets with low soot and water vapour emissions

Atmospheric Environment: X
Besides the goal of net-zero carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, reducing aviation’s climate impact also involves addressing other forcing effects, particularly radiative forcing from contrails.
