چکیده
Title: Domicology: Human Structural Abandonment Author: Hafsa Khan Abstract: Many Midwestern cities have suffered decline, resulting in widespread residential, commercial, and industrial property abandonment. In Muskegon County, 3,312 housing units are either unoccupied, not for sale, not for rent, or are not in seasonal or occasional use. The current system of private property ownership encourages abandonment. Abandoned property refers to a building where there is no visible owner or one that can be contacted easily. When a property is abandoned, the owner has abdicated rights of ownership, and the property reverts to the public domain. Abandoned properties inhibit talent retention/attraction, community economic vitality, and divert limited public resources to blight elimination.

متن کاملSynthesis and characterization of polyurethanes made from copolymers of epoxidized natural oil and tetrahydrofuran.
Polyols were synthesized from epoxidized natural oils and tetrahydrofuran through ring opening copolymerization catalyzed by Lewis acid. The properties of these polyols depend on the type of natural oils as well as the reaction conditions (monomer concentration, catalyst amount, reaction temperature and reaction time). These polyols were evaluated as a raw material for making polyurethane (PU) ...
