Propylene (propene) is one of the most important feedstocks in the chemical industry. It is a starting material for the synthesis of a wide variety of commodity chemicals ranging from small molecules (cumene, isopropanol, acrylonitrile, acrylic acid, propylene oxide, and butyraldehyde) to polymers (most notably, polypropylene). In 2013, approximately 85 million tons of propylene were processed ...

objective: the aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of two caries detector dyes in the diagnosis of dental caries. materials and methods: twenty extracted human posterior teeth without pulpal exposure were sectioned mesiodistally through the center of the lesions using a water-cooled disk. the tooth halves were randomly divided into two groups and treated with caries detector (...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of adding propylene glycol (pg) to mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) liquid with volume ratio of 20% on the compressive strength (cs) of mta in two time periods (4 and 21 days) after mixing. methods and materials: four groups of steel cylinders ( n =15) with an internal diameter of 3 and a height of 6 mm were prepared and mta (groups...

Catalytic cracking of n-hexane to selectively produce propylene on Beta zeolite was carried out. The H-Beta (HB) (Si/Al = 77) zeolite showed higher catalytic stability and propylene selectivity than the Al-rich HB (Si/Al = 12), due to its smaller number of acid sites, especially Lewis acid sites (LAS). However, catalytic stability and propylene selectivity in high n-hexane conversions were stil...

Liquid -caprolactone (CL) oligomers were synthesized by a ring-opening reaction of CL using a propylene glycol (PPG) as the initiator for use as new plasticizers of poly (L-lactide) (PLA) films. PPG-CL oligomers containing two (PPG-2CL) and four (PPG-4CL) units of CL at both PPG end-chains were prepared. The PLA/oligomer blend films were prepared by solution blending before film casting. The t...

This work aims to investigate the optical and electrical features of light-emitting diodes based on conjugated oligomer various quantities ZnO nanoparticles. Thermionic emission Cheung’s methods have been employed analyze results. Furthermore, analytical findings concerning Photoluminescence (PL) are modeled using sum Franck-Condon (FC) analysis Gaussians Fits. The p-n junction has formed betwe...

Single intraperitoneal injections (of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 ml per kilogram body weight) of a solution of sodium pentobarbital (50 mg/mI, in propylene glycol, 40 ml/100 ml) elevated rat serum triglyceride values obtained by the semi-automated fluorometric method of Kessler and Lederer. Increases of 267, 619, and 813%, respectively, were noted within 5 mm. Liver triglycerides and other major lipid f...

Cyclopentadienyl-titanium complexes containing –OC6H4X ligands (X = Cl, CH3) activated with methylaluminoxane (MAO) were used in the homo-polymerization of ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, 1-pentene, 1-butene, and 1-hexene, and also in copolymerization of ethylene with the α-olefins mentioned. The -X substituents exhibit different electron donor-acceptor properties, which is described by Hammett’...

Background Tau oligomers are considered toxic species in neurodegenerative disorders and their abundance correlate well with the disease onset pathology. Assays used for detection of these tau oligomer fail to detect low levels differentiate between various oligomers. This limitation reduces potential early diagnosis possible intervention. A label-free approach that can biomarkers at concentrat...
