Effects of UV Stabilizers on Polypropylene Outdoors

Description: This article looks at hindered amine light stabilizers (HALSs) and nano ZnO were used to stabilize polypropylene (PP) film-based formulations that were exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light for different lengths of time, simulating the harsh outdoor weather of Dallas, Texas, USA. UV doses applied in our laboratory are 121 times larger than the UV dose provided by the sunlight in Texas. 15 different compositions were studied. The combination of HALSs and nano-ZnO stabilizers makes the PP films harde… more

Preferential intracellular pH regulation is a common trait amongst fishes exposed to high environmental CO2

Description: Article testing the hypothesis that preferential pHi regulation is a widespread strategy of acid–base regulation among fish by measuring pHi regulation in 10 different fish species that are broadly phylogenetically separated, spanning six orders, eight families and 10 genera.

Wingate Miniature Printing Press

Description: This 3D dataset model contains the individual datasets necessary to print and assemble a miniature working printing press. The resulting press has a working area of about 2.35" X 1.7", stands 6.5" tall by 3.85" wide, and is 6" long. With minor liberties, this model is a miniature working version of a European style common press similar to those used during the hand-press era, in which a screw transmits pressure through the platen to create an even imprint onto an inked surface. Assembly is fac… more
