The oxidation of ethylene to ethylene oxide
… variables of type of reactor, catalyst, ethylene feed concentration, temperature, and contact time on the products of oxidation of ethylene to ethylene oxide; and together with subsequent hydrolysis to evaluate the commercial feasibility of the manufacture of ethylene glycol. The review …

Structural opportunities of ETFE (ethylene tetra fluoro ethylene)
An exploration of ETFE (ethylene tetra fluoro ethylene) foil cushions was performed in its use for building cladding. ETFE foil cushions consist of alternating layers of ETFE film and air cavities. An inflation system pressurizes the foil cushions prestressing the film layers to carry applied load. …

Investigations of Ethylene and Ethylene Inhibition, Ball Lie, and Synthetic Turf Color
… and three investigate the role of the hormone ethylene on growth of creeping bentgrass through (1) exposure of turf to exogenous ethylene and (2) testing an ethylene inhibiting compound for use to alleviate stress related injury. Previous research demonstrated a correlation of stress injury and …

UV stabilisation of poly(ethylene terephthalate)
… to yield copolymers of poly(ethylene isophthalate) (PEI). In certain cases, more than one UVAM was copolymerised into the same PEI chain to obtain a broader UV coverage and to distribute the UVAMs in the middle and end of the polymer chains. Copolymers were purified to remove …

Regulation of ethylene receptor expression in Arabidopsis
<p>The ethylene receptor family of Arabidopsis consists of five members, ETR1, ETR2, ERS1, ERS2, and EIN4. Regulation of ethylene receptor expression in Arabidopsis was studied using three different approaches. First, the effect of ethylene-pathway mutations upon expression of ETR1 was examined. …

Development Towards an Ethylene Sensing Artificial Metalloenzyme
<p>Ethylene (ethene) is the essential ripening hormone for climacteric plants, and consequently its detection and quantification is of considerable interest to the horticulture industry. Its detection however is a non-trivial pursuit, traditionally requiring expensive and inaccessible …

Gas-Phase Epoxidation of Ethylene and Propylene
… performance in the gas-phase direct oxidation of ethylene to ethylene oxide. For this study, which used no promoters, ethylene oxidation selectivity of SiC-supported catalysts ranged from 10 to 60% and conversion from 0-4.5%. Silicon carbide supported catalysts exhibited poor performance except …

New Applications for Poly(ethylene-alt-maleic anhydride)
… development of an understanding of poly(ethylene-alt-maleic anhydride) in terms of both its physical behaviour and chemistry. Chapter one involves a thorough and rigorous characterisation of the polymer, and three principle things are established: the polymer is structurally uniform, …

Structure Sensitivity of Ethylene Adsorption on Platinum (Dehydrogenation)
… to investigate the structure sensitivity of ethylene adsorption on platinum surfaces. Temperature Programmed Desorption (TPD), Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (EELS), Low-Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) and Auger spectroscopy are applied to study the adsorption of ethylene on the square …

Structure-property relationships in poly-(propylene-ethylene) copolymers
… and the mechanical properties of poly-(propylene-ethylene) bi-phasic copolymers. The copolymers investigated covered a comonomer content ranging between 4 and 23 percent ethylene. Nine grades were considered, with variables such as the melt flow index, the degree of crystallinity, the molecular …
