Interaction of a Long Alkyl Chain Protic Ionic Liquid and Water [PDF]
A combined experimental/theoretical approach has been used to investigate the role of water in modifying the microscopic interactions characterizing the optical response of butyl-ammonium nitrate (BAN) water solutions. Raman spectra, dominated by the signal from the protic ionic liquid, were collected as a function of the water content, and the ...

Simulating microbial degradation of organic matter in a simple porous system using the 3-D diffusion-based model MOSAIC [PDF]
This paper deals with the simulation of microbial degradation of organic matter in soil within the pore space at a microscopic scale. Pore space was analysed with micro-computed tomography and described using a sphere network coming from a geometrical ...

Determination of the water content of foods
Abstract The indirect determination of the water content of foods is dealt witli on the basis of tlie following general considerations: A. The absolute vapour pressure of the water in the substance to be desiccated ; B. The absolute vapour pressure of the water in the surrounding air, C.

Rocky super-Earths or waterworlds: the interplay of planet migration, pebble accretion and disc evolution [PDF]
Recent observations have found a valley in the size distribution of close-in super-Earths that is interpreted as a signpost that close-in super-Earths are mostly rocky in composition. However, new models predict that planetesimals should first form at the water ice line such that close-in planets are expected to have a significant water ice component ...

Preliminary Identification of Local Maize Under Drought Stress By PEG-6000 [PDF]
Adaptation test of local maize plants under drought stress requires early selection at the seedlings stage through Poly Ethylene Glycol (PEG-6000). This study aimed to identify local varieties of maize plants from North Sumatra under drought stress with ...

Water storage capacity of the Martian mantle through time [PDF]
Water has been stored in the Martian mantle since its formation, primarily in nominally anhydrous minerals. The short-lived early hydrosphere and intermittently flowing water on the Martian surface may have been supplied and replenished by magmatic degassing of water from the mantle.

Compaction behaviour of clay [PDF]
This paper presents an experimental study of the compaction behaviour of non-active clay. One-dimensional static compaction tests were carried out at high and medium water content with matric suction monitoring using Trento high-capacity tensiometers. At

Certified reference material to water content determination in bioethanol fuel
Bioethanol is a strategic biofuel in Brazil. Thus, a strong metrological basis for its measurements is required to ensure the quality and promote its exportation. Recently, Inmetro certified a reference material for water content in bioethanol.
