Amidos termoplásticos plastificados com glicerol (TPS), e reforçados com bentonita cálcica, foram preparados por extrusão. A morfologia dos materiais extrusados foi analisada por microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Foram avaliados os efeitos do teor de argila e do teor de glicerol sobre as propriedades físicas dos materiais. Os resultados de difração de raios X mostraram que o aumento no teor ...

Objective. To evaluate the treatment outcome and prognostic factors in patients with sinonasal malignant tumors invading skull base. Study Design and Setting. A retrospective clinical study at the Yamagata University School of Medicine. Subjects and Methods. Three patients with sinonasal malignant tumors invading skull base were presented in present study. All patients were treated with carbon ...

Many companies acknowledge the threat from global carbon emissions and how it affects climate change. Despite the continuous warnings, many organizations lack the necessary and recommended action plans that can hamper their negative impact on the environment. One of the managerial tools that companies use globally in order to work proactively and strategically on issues related to the environme...

Triple-walled carbon nanotubes (TWNTs) with three concentric cylindrical graphene layers have been selectively synthesized for the first time from decomposition of ferrocene encapsulated inside double-walled carbon nanotubes, and were identified by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Raman spectroscopy; HRTEM observations reveal that the formation of inner tubes of TWNT...

β-Alkylation of amino-furan and -thiophene heterocycles is described through metal-, acid- and base-free carbon-carbon bond formation. The ability of both heterocycles to undergo selective β-alkylation is compared by mean of experimental and theoretical data. The presence of chiral amine substituents induced the diastereoselective generation of the newly formed additional stereocenter.

-Animal bones were carbonized at a temperatures of 800-900C .The carbonized sample was reduced to particle size of 75μm and then chemically activated at 500C using orthophosphoric acid as activating agent. The mixture was separated by centrifugation. The activated carbon was then added (1:8 v/w) to the frog oil for purification. Physicochemical properties and individual fatty acid profiles were...

Conventional cellular wireless networks were designed with the purpose of providing high throughput for the user and high capacity for the service provider, without any provisions of energy efficiency. As a result, these networks have an enormous Carbon footprint. In this note, we describe the sources of the inefficiencies in such networks. First we quantify how much Carbon footprint such netwo...
