A major factor conferring resistance towards protein adsorption to a surface is the presence of tightly bound water molecules, as is the case in oligo ethylene glycol (OEG)-terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). Due to strong attractive protein-protein and protein-surface interactions observed ...
alpha-olefins(AO), ethylene oxide (EO) used primarily to make mono ethylene glycol (MEG) for use in polyester and antifreeze production, vinyl acetate (VAM), ethyl alcohol (ethanol), ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), a co-monomer for polypropylene, ethylbenzene ...
This study focuses on optimizing the medium composition for cellular biomass production and bioconversion of ethylene glycol (EG) to glycolic acid (GA) using Gluconobacter oxydans CCT 0552. The improvement in cellular growth in the presence of yeast extr
This article models a system of partial differential equations (PDEs) for the thermal and solute characteristics under gradients (concentration and temperature) in the magnetohydrodynamic flow of Casson liquid in a Darcy porous medium. The modelled problems are highly non-linear with convective boundary...
Polymerization activity is strongly depended on the polymerization temperature and the ethylene pressure. The decrease of the temperature to 20 ◦C resulted in the decrease of the activity in one order of magnitude (entry 5). Although activity decreased as the temperature was increased to 60 ◦...
The reactor tube length can be validated in two ways: first, the optimum length is the length beyond which there is a negligible increase in temperature. Because the glycol formation reaction is an exothermic reaction, a zero rate of change in temperature indicates that the reaction is complete...
