‘Chrystalline Talk’: Thomas Browne's Poetics of Concretion and Mineral Plain Style
Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article charts the figuration, both material and rhetorical, of mineral bodies in early modern natural philosophy, paying particular attention to the second book of Thomas Browne's Pseudodoxia Epidemica (1646). It argues that concretions (stony calculi and crystals formed through the aggregation of physical matter) make manifest a mineral

Avicenna on the PSR and Causal Necessity in the Natural World
Theoria, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Avicenna's account of causal necessity in the natural world is a key part of his metaphysical system and it is also historically significant. Yet, there is little scholarly discussion of the philosophical basis of his view. This is surprising not only because the topic is important, but also because the view is challenging to interpret ...

CONTROL OF STICKY CONTAMINANTS WITH CATIONIC TALC IN DEINKED PULP
BioResources, 2011 In this study a cationic talc was applied to deinked pulp for control of sticky contaminants. Effects of the cationic talc on stickies and dissolved and colloid substances were investigated and compared with those of a conventional talc.

Aggregation‐induced enhanced emission for quantification of recycled content in automotive plastics
Polymer International, Volume 75, Issue 10, Page 919-927, October 2026.Quantifying recycled content in four automotive plastics using aggregation‐induced enhanced emission showed that performance was highly dependent on both polymer and additive chemistries. Abstract The use of plastics in the automotive industry is increasing due to their versatility, light weight and affordability.

Thermal, rheological and morphological properties of poly (Lactic Acid) (PLA) and talc composites
Polímeros, 2014 In this study, composites based on poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/talc were prepared at different compositions by melt mixing in a twin screw extruder. The effect of a nucleating agent, talc, on the crystallization behavior, rheological and morphological ...
