studying room temperature curing of phenolic resin and their composites

phenolic resins are synthetic low molecular weight thermoset resins which are polymerized and cured to higher molecular weights by condensation method. these resins have high weathering resistance, high oxidative thermal properties and good chemical resistance. phenolic resins can be cured thermally or by acid curing. the most common method of curing phenolic resin is by thermal curing that tak...

Enantioselective Total Syntheses of Citrinadins A and B. Stereochemical Revision of Their Assigned Structures

The concise, enantioselective total syntheses of (-)-citrinadin A and (+)-citrinadin B in a total of only 20 and 21 steps, respectively, from commercially available starting materials are described. Our strategy, which minimizes refunctionalization and protection/deprotection operations, features the highly diastereoselective, vinylogous Mannich addition of a dienolate to a chiral pyridinium sa...

Remembering chosen and assigned options.

Recent studies have shown systematic choice-supportive memory for past choices, wherein people tend to overattribute positive features to options they chose and negative features to unchosen options (Mather & Johnson, 2000, Mather, Shafir, & Johnson, 2000). In contrast, the present experiments showed no choice-supportive memory bias for assigned options. Rather than having a general motivation ...

Facets of user-assigned tags and their effectiveness in image retrieval

1 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Pauline Rafferty, for her valuable support and encouraging feedback during the process of writing this dissertation, and also Marianne Taylor for her support during this time. I would also like to thank my son, Adam Ransom, who wrote and amended the computer program to download images and data from Flickr, without whose assistance I co...
