Routes to greener plastics
How to hide a dimension from view Compacted dimensions are essential ingredients of advanced string theories; the extra dimensions used to describe the world are hidden from view, or compacted. Pendry et al. used concepts of transformation optics, in which metamaterials are designed to produce specific optical properties, to show theoretically that compacted dimensions could be possible in plas...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Anionic Polyurethane Dispersants for Waterborne Paints
Anionic polyurethane dispersants APUDs were used as dispersing agents in formulation of waterborne paints. The APUDs were synthesized by three steps. In the first step, macromonomer diisocyanate having carboxylic acid was prepared by isophorone diisocyanate IPDI, dimethylol propionic acid DMPA in presence of acetone as solvent and dibutyltin dilaurate DBTDL as catalyst. Then, carboxylic polyure...
متن کاملHow a painter paints
Drawing from the seminal definition of the principles of abstract art posed by Wassily Kandinsky in the early years of the twentieth century, and contextualizing that knowledge in contemporary cognitive metaphor theory (Lakoff & Johnson, 1999), the study attempts to arrive at an understanding of how cognitive structure emerges in pragmatic self-observation during the artistic process. Through a...
متن کاملDendrite Plasticity: Branching Out for Greener Pastures
Environmental stress triggers substantial alterations in animal physiology and, in some cases, brain structure. Using the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, a new study reports that unfavorable conditions lead to dramatic dendrite remodeling in neurons that mediate an adaptive dispersal behavior.
