Wax Formation Mechanisms, Wax Chemical Inhibitors and Factors Affecting Chemical Inhibition
Applied Sciences, 2020 When crude oil is extracted out of a subterranean reservoir at high temperature and pressure, it is usually transported via a pipeline, where the crude oil experiences radical changes in its physical and chemical properties, instigating numerous ...

Reproducibility of wax interocclusal records on different articulators
Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2018 Context: The construction of a dental prosthesis needs the duplication of intermaxillary relationships of the patient on the articulator. This procedure is normally fulfilled using interocclusal records to program the articulator according to the patient'

Drought stress modulates cuticular wax composition of the grape berry
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2020 Drought events are a major challenge for many horticultural crops, including grapes, which are often cultivated in dry and warm climates. It is not understood how the cuticle contributes to the grape berry response to water deficit (WD); furthermore, the

Wax Inhibition by Comb-like Polymers: Support of the Incorporation−Perturbation Mechanism from Molecular Dynamics Simulations [PDF]
, 2007 Deposition of wax on a cold surface is a serious problem in oil production. Progress in developing more effective wax inhibitors has been impeded by the lack of an established mechanism connecting the molecular structure to inhibitor efficiency.

Molecular and Evolutionary Mechanisms of Cuticular Wax for Plant Drought Tolerance
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Cuticular wax, the first protective layer of above ground tissues of many plant species, is a key evolutionary innovation in plants. Cuticular wax safeguards the evolution from certain green algae to flowering plants and the diversification of plant taxa

The Plant Journal, 2020 Cuticular waxes play a crucial role not only in plant defense against biotic and abiotic stresses, but also in the quality and storability of fruits, such as the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit.

Evidence that no liquid equilibrium process is involved in the comb building of honey bees (Apis Mellifera) [PDF]
, 2017 According to Pirk et al. (2004), honeybees first build free standing cylindrical cells which are then transformed to hexagonal cross-section by wax-flow in a kind of self-organization. We show that there is no self-organization of the wax.

Surface wax esters contribute to drought tolerance in Arabidopsis.
The Plant Journal, 2019 Waxes are components of the cuticle covering the aerial organs of plants. Accumulation of waxes has previously been associated with protection against water loss, therefore contributing to drought tolerance.
