In this article, we review state-of-the-art and recent progress in these perfluorodioxolane polymers for gas separation membrane applications.There are increasing environmental risks associated with extensive use of fungicides for crop protection. Hence, the use of new approaches using natural plant defense mechanisms, including application of…[Read more]

e., HAAs with relatively higher apparent logKow* caused by elevated solvent sspKa exhibited longer retention times; whereas with a high proportion of aqueous solution, ionic interactions appeared to dominate retention of HAAs, with the more polarizable HAAs exhibiting longer retention times. Using 70/30 (v/v) acetonitrile/1 M aqueous methylamine,…[Read more]

[This corrects the article DOI 10.1055/a-1230-3555.].Purpose Existing methods for checking the light field-radiation field congruence on x-ray equipment either do not fully meet the conditions of various quality control standards regarding inherent uncertainty requirements or contain subjective steps, further increasing the uncertainty of the end…[Read more]
