A simple method for high resolution light microscopy of nervous tissue is described. Tissue perfused with glutaraldehyde and formaldehyde and postfixed with osmium tetroxide is embedded in HistoResin (LKB Bromma), a new glycol methacrylate based embedding medium, and sectioned (2 microns) on a standard microtome. The method gives excellent preservation of tissue structure, which is far superior...

A comparative study has been carried out on performance of two-dimensionally reinforced carbon/ phenolic (C/P) and carbon/epoxy (C/E) composites, subjected to low amplitude reciprocating wear at different temperatures. The C/P composite has shown greater wear rate than the C/E composite, with the difference being modest at room temperature, and larger at 250 °C. The values of coefficient of fri...

The knowledge generated by this stream has increased the wine industry’s capacity for meeting wine specification and consumer expectations and improving profitability. In particular, this stream was undertaken to provide the Australian wine industry with an improved understanding of structures, measurement, formation and function of phenolic compounds in red and white grapes and wines. Compound...

In this paper the effect of hardener on mechanical properties of carbon reinforced phenolic resin composites is investigated. Carbon fibre is one of the most useful reinforcement materials in composites, its major use being the manufacture of components in the aerospace, automotive, and leisure industries. In this study, carbon fibres are hot pressed with phenolic resin with various percentages...

The bonding interface between bamboo elements and adhesives is presumed to be significantly influenced by the degree of adhesive penetration into the porous network of interconnected cells of bamboo surfaces. In the study presented here, the average depth and effective depth of phenol-formaldehyde resin (PF) modified by different contents of lower-molecular weight (LMW) PF on bamboo surface wer...
