This research studied the quantity of free formaldehyde released from 2- [(hydroxymethyl)amino]ethanol (HAE) in DI water and natural rubber latex mixture using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique. The quantity of formaldehyde retained in the solution was cross-checked by using titration technique. The investigated factors were the concentration of preservative (HAE), pH, and temperature. Taguchi's method was used to design the experiments. The number of experiments was reduced to 16 experiments from all possible experiments by orthogonal arrays (3 factors and 4 levels in each factor). Minitab program was used as a tool for statistical calculation and for finding the suitable condition for the preservative system. HPLC studies showed that higher temperature and higher concentration of the preservative influence the amount of formaldehyde released. It was found that conditions at which formaldehyde was released in the lowest amount were 1.6%w/v HAE, 4 to 40 °C, and the original pH. Nevertheless, the pH value of NR latex should be more than 10 (the suitable pH value was found to be 13). This preservative can be used to replace current preservative systems and can maintain the quality of latex for long-term storage. Use of the proposed preservative system was also shown to have reduced impact on the toxicity of the environment.
The pronounced variation of the optical reflectance R of nanometer thin VO2 films with temperature T at the phase transition recently has triggered interest in the development of compact thermo-optical sensors that ut...

Proton‐coupled electron‐transfer oxidation of a Ru II −OH 2 complex, having an N‐heterocyclic carbene ligand, gives a Ru III −O . species, which has an electronically equivalent structure of the Ru IV =O species, in an acidic aqueous solution. The Ru III −O . complex was characterized by spectroscopic methods and DFT calculations. The oxidation state of the Ru center was shown to be close to +3; the Ru−O bond showed a lower‐energy Raman scattering at 732 cm −1 and the Ru−O bond length was estimated to be 1.77(1) Å. The Ru III −O . complex exhibits high reactivity in substrate oxidation under catalytic conditions; particularly, benzaldehyde and the derivatives are oxidized to the corresponding benzoic acid through C−H abstraction from the formyl group by the Ru III −O . complex bearing a strong radical character as the active species.
This study performed a salt water spray test using zinc-coated steel sheet specimens, which are coated with S-700 solution and LR-0317. Test specimens were treated in the drying oven at 170∼210 °C for 5 minutes ...

Nanocrystalline CoFe films were fabricated by electrodeposition process for an investigation of the relationship between the alloys' characteristics and their magnetic properties. The study shows that coating thickness promotes softer magnetic properties of the films, and induces changes of film roughness, preferred orientation and domain pattern. The preferred orientation of the μm films(thin films) is(110) plane, whereas that of the μm films(thick films) are(110) and(200) planes. The magnetic domain of the thin films exhibit a stripe-liked pattern, whereas a bubble-liked pattern appears in the thick films. Iron content significantly affects the magnetic properties of the thick films. In this study, the 57.3wt.%Fe thick film has the highest saturation magnetization, and the 80.0wt.%Fe thick film shows the lowest coercivity.
