BACKGROUND It is important for industries to find green chemistries for manufacturing their products that have utility, are cost-effective and that protect the environment. The paper industry is no exception. Renewable resources derived from plant components could be an excellent substitute for the chemicals that are currently used as paper binders. Air laid pressed paper products that are typi...

In recent decades there has been great interest in the design of highly sensitive sequence-specific DNA binders. The eligibility of the binder depends on the magnitude of the fluorescence increase upon binding, related to its photophysics, and on its affinity and specificity, which is, in turn, determined by the dynamics of the binding process. Therefore, progress in the design of DNA binders r...

binders are of prime importance in the agglomeration of iron ore concentrates. in this research, strength and density of briquette produced from the magnetite concentrate of gol-e-gohar were investigated using different binders at various applied pressures. the results showed that peridor was the most effective binder relative to bentonite and lime. for all types of binders, the increase in bin...

In spite of broad improvements in construction technology, cement is still stayed as binding material for construction purposes. Cement industries are the main sources for the contribution of carbon dioxide (co2) into the atmosphere. So, there is a need to use new materials as binders (green binders) in substitute for cement, which leads to reducing the production of cement. In this study, fly ...

The authors and collaborators have devised innovative technologies that decrease foundry costs, pollution, materials use, and energy. These include: (a) applying advanced oxidation to green sand and baghouse dust to diminish clay, coal, sand, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and costs; (b) replacing phenolic urethane core binders with collagen-alkali silicate binders to diminish VOCs; (c) rep...

We investigate regular languages on infinite alphabets where words may contain binders on names. To this end, classical regular expressions and automata are extended with binders. We prove the equivalence between finite automata on binders and regular expressions with binders and investigate closure properties and complementation of regular languages with binders.
