Environmental context The effects of the presence polymer additives and polymeric structure on sorption xenobiotics to microplastics remain unclear. Our results combined data from experimental batch experiments using three environmentally relevant model sorbates with confocal microscopy. This provides clear evidence that both factors play a major role in strength underlying process, affecting o...

Alumina-Mullite-Zirconia ceramic composites were prepared by reaction sintering of alumina, zircon mixture and the sintering aids of magnesia and titania at temperatures of 1400 and 1600 C for 2 hours. The development of different phases and microstructures of the composites were analysed to assess the relative influence of the additives on the formation of alumina-zirconia-mullite compos...

In recent years, the use of edible coatings as a carrier of food additives and antimicrobial compounds in fishery products has been considered. This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of 2% chitosan coating singly or combined with 0.1% grape seed extract (GSE) on microbial (mesophilic and psychrophilic count), chemical (TBA, pH and PV) and sensorial properties of rainbow trout fillet...

current article describes application of zeolites in fluid catalytic cracking (fcc). the use of several zeolitic additives for the production light olefins and reduction of pollutants is described. application of zeolites as fluid catalytic cracking (fcc) catalysts and additives due to the presence of active acid sites in the zeolite framework  increase the formation of desired cracking product...
