The aim was to investigate the feasibility of using a device characterize permeability in porous substrates with low gas flux. Al2O3 supports were prepared by dry pressing 1 3 wt% polyethylene glycol (PEG) as pore-forming agent. green body partially sintered at 1300 ºC. CO2 used measure both pressure loss and flux passing through substrate. behavior analyzed Darcy Forchheimer models. correlatio...

Six potentially important wood adhesives for gluing southern pine and white oak flakeboards were evaluated for their perfonnances in steam-injection pressing and conventional platen pressing. Of the six resins tested, polyisocyanate resin perfonned well in both steam injection and conventional platen pressings. Phenol-fonnaldehyde (PF) and melamine urea-fonnaldehyde (MUF) resins perfonned poorl...

The article demonstrates that dry eye syndrome is remaining a pressing issue at present and leads to vision deterioration decrease in the quality of life. Among its causes there are autoimmune disorders, environmental impact, contact lens wearing, hormonal changes, chronic inflammation, infections, iatrogenic factors. Dry known as one most common pathological conditions modern ophthalmology pri...

Using Annosol Reactive Blue DS dye as the colorant, an inkjet printing ink was developed, and its rheological properties dynamic surface tension were evaluated for use in dry heat transfer of patterns on bio-based nylon 56 cotton interwoven fabrics. In particular, effects parameters fabrics investigated. The results revealed that optimal custom-produced are follows: hot pressing at 130 °C under...

Habitat fragmentation drives biodiversity loss in rivers around the world. Although effects of anthropogenic barriers on river connectivity are well known, there has been little research ways which stream drying may alter connections among habitats and resources. Given that is increasing many regions, a pressing need to understand habitat fragmentation. Here, we quantify spatiotemporal patterns...
