Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuators for Radial Contraction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents an Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuator that combines high‐performance electrohydraulic actuation with origami‐inspired folding geometry to achieve constricting radial actuation. This integration yields significant inner lumen constriction, alongside a gripping force capable of holding objects exceeding four times the actuator's ...

Harnessing the Interfacial Activity of Soluble Faba Protein‐Tannic Acid Conjugates for Enhanced Lipid Oxidative Stability of Oil‐in‐Water Emulsions

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In oil‐in‐water emulsions, lipid oxidation begins at the interface between the two phases. One strategy to slow down this process is to place antioxidants at the interface, where they can directly block oxidative reactions. This study explored that idea by conjugating soluble faba bean protein with tannic acid using the free‐radical grafting ...

Wax composition of sunflower seed oils

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 2002
AbstractWaxes are natural components of sunflower oils, consisting mainly of esters of FA with fatty alcohols, that are partially removed in the winterization process during oil refining. The wax composition of sunflower seed as well as the influence of processing on the oil wax concentration was studied using capillary GLC.
