Theories of working memory (WM) capacity limits will be more useful when we know what aspects of performance are governed by the limits and what aspects are governed by other memory mechanisms. Whereas considerable progress has been made on models of WM capacity limits for visual arrays of separate objects, less progress has been made in understanding verbal materials, especially when words are...

Raw hides and skin are preserved before processed into leather. Salt preservation is the general and age old popular practice. Possibilities of using other methods of preservations have been analysed in order to reduce the pollution load in the soaking process of leather by many scientist. However, in the present study less salt preserving systems based on herbal extract have been investigated ...

The binding of chlorosulphonated paraffins to collagen triple helices is studied by means of classical molecular dynamics simulations and experimental spectroscopic techniques in order to disclose the principal characteristics of their interaction during the leather fattening process. Indeed, collagen is the main target to develop new leather modifying agents with specific characteristics, and ...

Head and neck cancers account for an estimated 549,000 global cancer diagnoses each year. While tobacco use, alcohol consumption, and HPV16 infection are considered to be the major risk factors for this disease, occupational risk factors, including exposure to asbestos, have also been described, although dust exposures other than asbestos have been historically understudied. We have investigate...

Ecological pressures on chromium have now forced the leather industry to look for possible alternatives. A vegetablealuminum combination tannage has been studied, with special attention being given to intended final product. Aluminum is mineral tanning agents that are widely used to stabilize collagens in the leather industry. In this study, the crosslinking of vegetable and aluminum, with coll...

With an increase in ethical awareness, people have begun to criticize the unethical issues associated with use of animal materials. This study focused on transition global consumers’ awareness toward vegan materials and relationship between interest subjects such as animals, environment, For this purpose, posts about fur/fake fur leather/fake leather uploaded Google Twitter from 2008 2019 were ...

We use terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, combined with effective-medium theory, to measure the moisture content and thickness of leather simultaneously. These results demonstrate that this method could become a standard quality control test for the industrial tanning process.

This paper reports a method for preparing artificial leather with high comfort and useful mechanical property. Blending thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU), Toluene diisocyanate (TDI) prepolymer 4,4-Methylene bis(2-chloroaniline) (MOCA), nanofiber was obtained by using online reactive electrospinning technology heat cross-linking. Compared the commercial PU leather, tensile strength of f...

A sustainability-oriented innovation (SOI) in the leather-making process is key for inducing a sustainable shift leather supply chain. Fashion an industry that highly vulnerable to sustainability disruptions and, at same time, as fertile ground SOIs. As result of increasing pressures from market, several fashion brands have started recognize potential SOIs induce positive transformation whole T...

Despite the fact, world leather industries are built on chromium tannage system, there is a growing interest of metal free tannages (chrome). This primarily owing to rising demand for tanning in industry. The goal this research paper was evaluate influences vegetable tannins materials retannage leather, by using Acacia nilotica ssp Adansonia pods (hydrolysable tannins) and Azadirachta indica ba...
