non-sulphur vulcanizing agent for synthetic elastomers. It is used extensively for rapid curing of butyl stocks requiring heat resistance. Butyl of this type is used to fabricate high voltage wire and cable products‚ moulded electric components‚ and heat resistant seals and hose. PQD has also been used as part of the curative system for liquid butyl elastomers. These compounds are formulated as coatings‚ sealants and electrical encapsulants. The proper choice of PQD and a co-curative‚ such as lead dioxide

Chase Sigler‚ a senior double major in chemistry and human biology‚ recently presented the chemistry research he has been working on for the last three semesters at a conference hosted by the American Chemical Society. Jerry Easdon‚ professor of chemistry‚ said around sixteen thousand people typically attend the ACS conference. Close to two thousand of those in attendance are undergraduate‚ Easdon said and “many of them are presenting their senior research at a poster session‚ just like Chase did

An ordinary piece of glass shatters when struck by a single bullet. Bullet resistant glass is designed to withstand one or several rounds of bullets depending on the thickness of the glass and the weapon being fired at it. So‚ what gives bullet-resistant glass the ability to stop bullets? It works by a two layers of glass separated by a vinyl acetal sheet then covered in Polycarbonate. (John Shriner‚ 2014)

impossible to do. For example‚ the gene from a fish that lives in cold seas was inserted into the tomato to make it frost resistant. GM foods offer greater resistance to pests‚ a longer shelf life and higher nutritional value. Research is currently being undertaken to develop drought tolerant crops using genetic engineering. Foods that have already been modified to be resistant to insects and disease are corn‚ wheat‚ rice‚ canola‚ potato‚ soybean and cotton. Whole foods that are GM are not available

Genetically Modified Organisms‚ or GMOs‚ are organisms that have been created through the gene-splicing techniques of biotechnology Although GMOs have been around for many years‚ it wasn’t until just recently that people have become more concerned with them. However‚ many companies that produce genetically modified organisms‚ like Monsanto‚ try to make believe that the products they produce are healthy and beneficial for the environment; while that may be true first glance‚ lots of anti gmo activists
