The Effect of Montmorillonite Type Nanoparticles on Stiffness and Flammability of Rapeseed Oil Based Polyisocyanurate Foams
2013
Polyisocyanurate foams incorporating polyols derived from rapeseed oil are developed, with the polyol system comprising up to 80% of rapeseed oil esters. To enhance the mechanical characteristics and fire resistance of the foams, they are filled with three different types of organically modified clay (organoclay) in the range of loading from 1 to 5% by weight. Marked increase in tensile stiffness of nanocomposite foams is observed.
Fatty acid composition of the seed lipids ofChamaerops humilisL. natural populations and its relation with the environment
2014
Seed lipids composition is a tool to discriminate among plant taxa and is related to phylogeny and biogeographic distribution. Aim of the present study was to evaluate the fatty acid (FA) composition of the seed lipids from nine natural Chamaerops humilis L. population and its relation with the climatic traits of the collection sites. The average seed lipids content was 54.8 g kg21 and the most represented FAs were oleic (478 g kg21 oil) and linoleic (230 g kg21 oil), with significant differences among the accessions. Most of the lipid traits significantly correlated with climatic traits. In particular, oleic acid negatively correlated with year potential evapotranspiration. These relations…
Utilization of different dietary lipid sources at high level in herbivorous grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella): mechanism related to hepatic fatty …
2008
Herbivorous grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) has been reported to exhibit low capacity to utilize high dietary lipid, but different lipid sources might affect this limited capacity. In order to compare the effects of different lipid sources with different lipid levels, juvenile grass carp were fed one of nine diets containing three oils [lard, plant oil mixed by maize and linseed oil, and n-3 high unsaturated fatty acid-enriched (HUFA-enriched) fish oil] at three lipid levels (20, 60 and 100 g kg(-1) dry diet) for 8 weeks. Decreased feed intake, poor growth performance, hepatic pathology and higher blood lipid peroxidation were found in 60 and 100 g kg(-1) fish oil groups. Conversely, i…
Performance Test of Various Teeth Diameter of Cylinder Type Sago Rasping Machine
2021
Traditional method of sago starch extraction was a time and labor intensive process. The most laborious stage is pith disintegration which is done by using hammer-like tools called pounder. However, the use of rasping machine to disintegrate the pith is saving time and energy significantly. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of teeth diameter and cylinder rotation speed on performance of cylinder type sago rasping machine. In the experiment, four variations of teeth diameter i.e. 3mm, 4 mm, 5 mm and 6 mm, and three levels of cylinder rotation speed i.e. 1500 rpm, 2000 rpm and 2500 rpm were examined. Results showed that both teeth diameter and cylinder rotation speed s…
Influence of synthesis conditions on the morphology of Dodecasil 1H
1993
Abstract The synthesis of Dodecasil 1H was studied in the system SiO2/1-adamantylamin/NH3/water with the objective of controlling the particle size and the morphology of the crystals. Since nucleation occurs in a very early stage of the synthesis, the heating rate to the final temperature and/or holding points during heat up have a strong influence on both parameters. Crystals smaller than 150 μm could only be obtained by the use of seed crystals, which are completely consumed in the synthesis with subsequent new nucleation. Using seed crystals, the expensive template 1-adamantylamine can be substituted with cheaper reagents such as sodium dodecyl sulfate or trimethylethylammonium bromide a…
PUNAS: A Parallel Ungapped-Alignment-Featured Seed Verification Algorithm for Next-Generation Sequencing Read Alignment
2017
The progress of next-generation sequencing has a major impact on medical and genomic research. This technology can now produce billions of short DNA fragments (reads) in a single run. One of the most demanding computational problems used by almost every sequencing pipeline is short-read alignment; i.e. determining where each fragment originated from in the original genome. Most current solutions are based on a seed-and-extend approach, where promising candidate regions (seeds) are first identified and subsequently extended in order to verify whether a full high-scoring alignment actually exists in the vicinity of each seed. Seed verification is the main bottleneck in many state-of-the-art a…
Density, Speed of Sound, Viscosity, and Excess Properties of Binary Mixtures Formed by Ethanol and Bis(trifluorosulfonyl)imide-Based Ionic Liquids
2015
In this work, viscosities, densities, and speeds of sound of three binary mixtures containing the ionic liquids 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [emim][NTf2], 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [bmim][NTf2], and 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazo-lium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [hmim][NTf2], mixed with ethanol were measured at atmospheric pressure in the range of (278.15 to 338.15) K, covering the entire range of compositions. From these experimental data, the excess isentropic compressibility and molar isentropic compressibility of pure components and mixtures have been calculated. Additionally, excess properties, such as viscosity dev…
Oxygen isotope analysis of human bone phosphate evidences weaning age in archaeological populations
2015
Here we report bone phosphate oxygen (δ(18)Op) values from perinates/neonates and infants ( 50 years), have δ(18)Op values consistent with the consumption of local modern drinking water. The implications of this study for the reconstruction of weaning practices in archaeological populations are discussed, including variations observed with bone δ(15)Ncoll and δ(18)Op co-analysis and the influence of culturally-modified drinking water and seasonality. The use of this method to explore human mobility and palaeoclimatic conditions are also discussed with reference to the data presented.
Les enfants difficiles à table : conceptualisation et évolution
2022
L'objectif du présent article est de proposer un état des lieux des études récentes permettant d'offrir un cadre conceptuel et opérationnel au concept de comportement difficile à table, tout en mettant en lumière les conséquences psychologiques pour l'enfant, ainsi que les pratiques éducatives parentales associées. L'article ambitionne aussi de déterminer dans quelle mesure un enfant difficile est un mangeur à risque de développer ultérieurement des troubles du comportement alimentaire (anorexie mentale, ARFID), et quelles seraient les pistes à privilégier, en termes de guidance parentale, pour accompagner l'enfant.
Revindication of religious organizations’ properties in Poland : Thirty years’ experience of building a democratic state ruled by law
2022
Celem tego artykułu jest analiza przepisów, na mocy których odbywa się w Polsce po 1989 r. rewindykacja nieruchomości osób prawnych związków wyznaniowych upaństwowionych w okresie Polski Ludowej. Omówiono w nim zarówno tryby, jak i sposoby regulacji spraw majątkowych wyznaniowych osób prawnych, uwzględniając liczne zmiany stanu prawnego wprowadzane kolejnymi nowelizacjami przepisów oraz ewolucję ich wykładni dokonywanej przez judykaturę i doktrynę. Zwrócono szczególną uwagę na dyskusyjne kwestie prawne, w tym na nieuprawnione zróżnicowanie sytuacji prawnej poszczególnych związków wyznaniowych. Przeprowadzone w artykule analizy prowadzą do wniosku, że ustawodawca konsekwentnie uwłaszczył wsz…
