Bioavailability of carbohydrate material stored in tropical fruit seeds

Food Chemistry, 1996
Properties of starches derived from seeds obtained from tropical fruits used by the pulping industries were characterised and their response to enzyme attack ascertained. Despite similarity of the tissue from which starch was obtained, seeds starches varied depending upon the botanical source in all of the structural and physicochemical properties ...

TROPICAL SERVICE LIFE OF ELECTRONIC PARTS AND MATERIALS

1966
Abstract : Failure analysis of the CK12 capacitor indicated three failure modes: (1) transient increases in dissipation factor; (2) permanent changes in dissipation factor; and (3) permanent changes in dissipation factor accompanied by a change in capacity. From a failure effects analysis, the magnitude of change would not effect a filtering or by-pass

Iron oxides in tropical soils on various parent materials

Clay Minerals, 2007
AbstractTwenty nine Fe oxide concentrates of Thai soils formed on basalt, sandstone, shale/limestone and granite were investigated. Goethite and hematite are relatively more abundant in granitic and basaltic soils, respectively. Values of Feo/Fedrange from 0.01 to 0.28 indicating that free Fe oxides are mostly crystalline.There are no systematic ...

Electrolytic Corrosion-Methods of Evaluating Insulating Materials Used in Tropical Service

Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1945
The selection of insulating materials to guard against electrolytic corrosion has become increasingly important as the use of electric devices in the tropics has increased. Moisture conditions in the tropics are described, and means for producing such conditions in the laboratory are considered.

Role of Degradable Plastic Packaging Materials in Tropical Areas

Progress in Rubber and Plastics Technology, 1989
The photodegradation and stabilisation of plastics have long been studied to enhance their life. Rapid growth of plastics and continued increase in their utilisation, in a multitude of applications, have raised question regarding their disposal. The unabated use and subsequent disposal of plastics have resulted in acute litter and pollution problems ...

Development of acceptance specifications for tropical gravel paving materials

Engineering Geology, 1983
Abstract The ideal standard grading specification for gravels was meant to ensure high density and stability, and specifications on maximum limits of content of fines, liquid limit and plasticity index were meant to control the magnitude of swell of materials in the pavement structure.

Geophagy in the tropics: an appraisal of three geophagical materials

Environmental Geochemistry and Health, 1997
Geophagy, the deliberate consumption of soil, is a common practice amongst the world's poorer or more tribally oriented people of the tropics. An appraisal of three geophagical samples suggests that Fe is a mineral nutrient which can be supplied to humans in significant amounts via ingested soil. Geophagy provides a direct link between the geochemistry

Performance of OTEC Heat Exchanger Materials in Tropical Seawaters

JOM, 1985
The corrosion of several aluminum alloys in flowing Hawaiian surface seawater and water from 600 m depth for exposure periods up to three years has been studied. The alloys tested in cold water were Alclad (7072) 3003 and 3004; and bare 3004 and 5052). All show some pitting. Pit growth is slow, and pits do not penetrate the cladding. In the warm water,
