in this study, polystyrene ethylene butylene polystyrene (psebs) was functionalized to prepare mono and bipolar ion exchange membranes. in the case of the bipolar membrane, platinum was used as the intermediate layer. nacl solution of concentration ranging from 5 g/l to 25 g/l was used as the feed solution. a commercially procured ion exchange membrane made of polystyrene divinyl benzene was al...

The aim of this study is investigation on effect of stem end splitting and Geranium essential oil on vase life on quality of cut chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflorum L.). This experiment arranged as factorial based on RCD with 2 factors of stem end splitting at 2 levels (with splitting and without splitting) and Geranium essential oil at 6 levels (0, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 10 %), with 12 treatments...

dry beans are rich sources of dietary fiber and phytochemicals such as flavonoids and phenolics that exhibit good functional properties. in current study line, cooking and soaking time effects were investigated on water absorption, splitting and texture properties of different iranian red kidney beans to determine the best lines and the best soaking time for industrial use. d81083 line showed t...

For the improvement the postharvest longevity of cut alstroemeria (Alstroemeria hybrida L.), a factorial experiment was carried out based on RCD with 2 factors of stem end splitting at two levels (5 cm splitting and without splitting) and ethanol at five levels (0, 1, 2, 4 and 6%), 10 treatments, 3 replications and 30 plots. In this experiment, the estimated traits included vase life, water abs...

titania nanotubes (tnt) prepared by anodization of ti foils were used for water splitting in a standalone cell. the concentration polarization between the anode side (1m naoh) and cathode side (0.5 m h2so4) ensured that the water splitting reaction could take place with no external bias and separate h2 and o2 evolution could be achieved. the destruction of tnt structures under 365 nm uv irradia...
