Vinyl ester resins are widely used as matrix materials in particle and fiber reinforced composites. Nowadays, particles also preferred micron-sized microstructures to increase the mechanical properties of polymer In this work, vinyl composites with aluminum oxide 1-3 micron dimensions were produced. Mechanical such tensile, 3 point bending, hardness, impact wear specimens prepared investigated....

In the title compound, C13H13ClO4, the dihedral angle between the chloro-benezene ring and the least-squares plane through the 4-meth-oxy-2-oxobut-3-enoate ethyl ester residue (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0975 Å) is 54.10 (5)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected by meth-oxy-ketone and benzene-carboxyl-ate carbonyl C-H⋯O inter-actions, generating a supra-molecular layer in the ac plane.

he Clean Air Act (CAA) Amendments of 1990 are inT tended to reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by 70 to 90%. They specifically designate 189 compounds as hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). The EPA estimates that the aerospace industry generates 208,000 tons per year of HAPs plus an additional 145,000 tons per year of VOCs. Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) standards ...

To facilitate urine sample preparation prior to head-space gas-chromatographic (HS-GC) analysis. Urine samples containing one of the five solvents (acetone, methanol, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone and toluene) at the levels of biological exposure limits were aspirated into a vacuum tube via holder, a device commercially available for venous blood collection (the vacuum tube method...
