Periodic patterns are ubiquitous in nature and spontaneously form on molecular to cosmic scales by the interplay between reaction and diffusion. Understanding how these patterns form is important to understand the construction rules of nature and apply them in the

4-Ethylphenol (4-EP) and 4-ethylguaiacol (4-EG) formation in red wines by Dekkera/Brettanomyces yeasts reduce significantly wine consumer's acceptability. Polymers with specific adsorption for volatile phenols (VPs) could be a valuable tool for wine producers for removing this negative sensory defect. In

Thermoplastic solid poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) (PMEA)-based polyurethane (PU) is synthesized through the reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and the condensation polymerization, using hydroxyl-terminated RAFT reagents and diisocyanate, respectively. Neat PMEA is a promising antithrombogenic liquid used in the medical fields.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
