Abstract:: Porapak Q, Chromosorb 102, and Tenax GC, three porous polymers commonly used as adsorbents in headspace analyses were investigated. The retention times of various low-boiling compounds relative to water were measured on the collection columns to determine which compounds would be lost during the water removal step employed after sampling...

Abstract:: The main objective of this study was to determine appropriate accelerated aging methods for exterior plywood made with Southeast Asian hardwood face veneers. A secondary objective of this study was to determine the durability of exterior plywood made with keruing (12 Dipterocarpus spp.). To reach these objectives I made plywood...

Abstract:: Inheritance of the volatile components in bush snap beans, O.S.U. 58-110 X 'Romano' cross and reciprocal, was determined using gas-liquid chromatographic technique with gas-entrainment on-column trapping. A sample of 10 to 14 pods averaging 5 grams from a single plant was found to be adequate for F₁, F₂, and backcross...

Creator:: Promachotikool, Montree
Abstract:: Three samples of different wood densities of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) were cooked by the kraft process. The yields and the Kappa numbers were studied to establish the rates and the energies of activation of the pulping and delignification reactions respectively. Wood properties did not show significant effects on...

Creator:: Knutsen, Daniel Peter
Abstract:: High yield unbleached kraft pulp for linerboard and bag paper was deshived in a PFI mill and a Bauer model 187 double disk refiner. Levels of plate gap, specific energy consumption, throughput rate, and stock consistency were varied to control PFI mill and Bauer 187 deshive refining. Shive content reductions...

Creator:: Ilcewicz, Larry Bert
Abstract:: Nonlocal theories of continuum mechanics are used to model the fracture behavior of particleboard in tension perpendicular to the plane of the board. Classical theories of fracture are examined in comparison to a nonlocal crack solution which has removed the stress singularity at the crack tip. With the removal of...
