The dual-process component of Terror Management Theory (TMT) proposes that different types of threats lead to increases in death-thought accessibility (DTA) after different delay intervals. Experimental studies of terror management threats' effect on DTA were collected and coded for their use of explicitly death-related (vs. not explicitly death-related) threats, and for their use of delay and ...

the present work deals with the synthesis and characterization of cds nanoparticles with good thermal stability and optical properties by a novel and simple synthetic route. the nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical precipitation method in a single reaction vessel under ambient conditions. the prepared cds nanoparticles were compared with the bulk cds. the optical properties were determin...

Abstract The effect of three types emulsifiers (polyglycerol monostearate ester – E475, sucrose stearate E473 and modified inulin palmitate HP-25) on the starch retrogradation in sponge cake (SC) during storage was investigated. method differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) applied to determine changes staling process. temperature enthalpy endothermic transition decreased when were added. lowe...

as a high temperature structural ceramic, cermets exhibit less brittleness than ceramic-ceramic composites or monolithic ceramics owing to the presence of a ductile metal second phase in their microstructure. these cermets can, therefore, be used in applications where the abrasive, creep and thermo-mechanical resistance are required. in the present study, aluminum-alumina cermets with different...

The reaction of levulinic acid production from glucose has a stage that requires high temperature and activation energy so in this catalyst is needed. required must have lewis site bronsted the acidity very influential for successful levulonic acid. Silica nickel phosphate catalysts sites Ni metal phosphoric silica groups. was measured using pyridine ammonia adsorption method center strength TG...
