5 Objective: To explore home and drink food availability in UK homes. Knowledge of the types and 6 quantities of foods and drinks available in family homes supports the development of targeted 7 intervention obesity prevention or management programmes, or for overall diet improvement. In the 8 UK, contemporary data on foods that are available within family homes are lacking. 9 Design: An explor...

with these subjects developed two goals representing two separate strategies: forbidding only harmful ingredients and additions, on the one hand, and, on the other, demanding labelling of ingredients to inform the consumer. Milk was often the focus of independent campaigns. Protecting the public from impure ingestions also became an important element in the public health movement as it develope...

This paper contributes to the ongoing debate about the relationship between the social and the individual as it is enacted in personal learning and the remaking of cultural practices through work. It discusses progress in a two-year study of the work, working lives and learning of twelve workers. They comprise four groups of three workers in an emergency service, gymnasium, restaurant and IT he...

Scanning Electro n Mic roscopy (SEM) and X· ray Mic ro· analys is (EOS) have been used to investigate product conwinc r interaction problems in plai n tinplate metal food containers and to examine glass and glass-like particles that we re found in canned food . Through the usc o f SEMEDS. it wa~ detemlined that: sulfa te contain ing panicles from the cannery cooling water reacted with exposed i...

The corrosion behavior of both tin-plated carbon steel and aluminum (Al 1100) in NaCl solutions were studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The study objectives were to compare their corrosion behavior in concentrated brine solution, establish the equivalent electrical circuit diagrams of their corrosion phenomena, and consequently develop steady-state corrosion models for ...

Although alloy tin plating has been known and used for many years, this paper will describe the use of a new non-cyanide tin/zinc alloy as a possible replacement coating for cadmium and the use of a tin/nickel alloy as a possible substitute for barrel decorative chromium plating. A review on the corrosion properties of tin, zinc and cadmium compared to tin/zinc alloys and review of the properti...

The movement to eliminate lead (Pb), especially active in Japan and the European Union, has resulted in an increasing use of pure tin (Sn) coatings on leads and other external and internal surfaces of capacitors, resistors, and other passive components. This paper discusses the issues of tin whisker growth with respect to passive components. It also presents both a critical analysis of existing...

Tin platings on component finishes may grow whiskers under certain conditions, which may cause failures in electronic equipment. Although the thermal mismatch of tin and FeNi42 is well known and tin whiskers have been reported after thermal cycling of this material combination, no systematic investigation on the effects of thermal cycling is available. In this paper we describe the influence of...

A MODEL OF AN AIR-CONDITIONING CONDENSER AND EVAPORATOR WITH EMPHASIS ON IN-TUBE ENHANCEMENT Kuo-Hsiu Huang Michael B. Pate Mechanical Engineering Department Iowa state University Ames, Iowa 50011 A computational model for air-conditioning condensers and evaporators with in-tube enhancement has been developed. The purpose of this model is to provide a tool for the design of plate tinned-tube he...
