The objective of this study was to determine the physicochemical and sensory properties of Appenzeller cheese supplemented with different concentrations (0, 1, 2, 3, and 4%, w/w) of powdered microcapsules of tomato extracts (PMT) during ripening at 14℃ for 6 mon. The particle sizes of PMT ranged from 1 to 10 m diameter with an average particle size of approximately 2 m. Butyric acid (C4) concen...

Many phenomena in continuous casting including the formation of surface defects are greatly affected by heat transfer in the mold. The interfacial slag layers between the solidifying steel shell and the mold wall dominates the resistance to heat removal and thus controls mold heat transfer. Surface defects, such as longitudinal cracks and star cracks have been associated with variation of slag ...

mold powders are fluxing agents used as raw materials in the steel industry, which play very important role inprocessing stability and final surface quality of a product. surface quality depends particularly on the viscosity and the heat transfer of infiltrated mold flux between the mold wall and the solidified steel shell. heat flux across the interfacial gap depends on thermal properties of s...

One of the most important tasks remaining to be resolved in nanoimprint lithography is the elimination of the resist sticking to the mold during demolding. Previously, the main approach was to apply a thin layer of fluorinated alkyl silane mold-release agent on the surface on the mold; however, this involves complicated steps and high costs. The low surface free energy material polybenzoxazine ...

Mold Shape Deposition Manufacturing (Mold SDM) is a Solid Freeform Fabrication technique for producing complex shaped fugitive wax molds. A variety of castable polymer and ceramic materials have been used to make parts from these molds. This paper describes the Mold SDM method and an automated mold building machine based on a commercial CNC mill. Process steps, material selection and equipment ...

The air-gap nucleation time, the stress evolution and the solid shell growth pattern are examined for different mold topographies to illustrate the potential control of aluminum cast surface morphologies during the early stages of solidification using proper design of mold topographies. The interaction between heat transfer and deformation during the early stages of solidification is considered...

Blue rot disease caused by Penicillium expansum is one of the most widespread fungal diseases that affects apples worldwide. This work was to verify effect chitosan (2 and 4 g/L) its nano-form (0.2 0.4 against blue on their expression six defense-related genes as well fruit quality parameters. Regarding incidence, in cases, NPs performed better compared raw materials for both artificial natural...

In thermal characterization tests of bone cement according to the ASTM Standard Specification for Acrylic Bone Cement, time-temperature profiles of bone cement were observed to be sensitive to the thickness of the cement patty and the mold material. Due to the heat transfer from cement to the surrounding mold, such tests might underestimate the exothermic temperature of bone cement. Developing ...

Introduction and scope. “Mold spores are omnipresent, and a constantly elevated humidity in given building containing organic components will inevitably lead to [fungal] growth and subsequent damage to the materials” (Gravensen, 1999). In recent years indoor fungal growth and airborne particles have gained the reputation of a serious health threat. The extent to which this perception is justifi...
