BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D)-reconstruction from paraffin embedded sections has been considered laborious and time-consuming. However, the high-resolution images of large object areas and different fields of view obtained by 3D-reconstruction make one wonder whether it can add a new insight into lung adenocarcinoma, the most frequent histology type of lung cancer characterized by its morph...

Precipitation ofsolid paraffins is one ofthe most common problems in the oil industry, imposing high operating costs. There have been a great many efforts for the prediction <span style="font-size: 10p...

In order to explore the heat storage properties of phase change paraffin, a calculation model for melting paraffin was established based on equivalent capacity method. A finite element software (COMSOL) used study influence different inclination angles paraffin. The results show that process is determined by conduction and natural convection transfer, transfer plays significant role in Phase ex...

In this work, a series of novel paraffin inhibitor, polyaminoamide (PAA), was designed and prepared by aminolysis and poly-condensation using soybean oil and canola oil as the raw material. The property of the PAAs as paraffin inhibitor was investigated, the results show several PAA samples are potent in paraffin inhibition, and PPC-2 is the most effective one. Besides, the paraffin crystal mor...

Abstract Rocket fuels are subjected to intense in-flight inertial, pressure and thermal loads that has drastic effect on its performance. In order achieve optimal results, we require functionally-graded solid propellant (FGSPs), specifically designed for each flight condition. A novel series of FGSPs were developed using Paraffin Wax (as fuel) Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene binder); treated ...
