The dielectric spectra of most simple liquids are characterized by two relaxation processes: (i) the alpha-process, an intense, broad non-Debye relaxation with a non-Arrhenius temperature dependence and (ii) a beta process, evident mainly below the glass transition and having nearly
The biodegradation of plasticizers has been previously shown to result in the accumulation of metabolites that are more toxic than the initial compound. The present work shows that the pattern of degradation of di-2-ethylhexyl adipate by Bacillus subtilis can be

2-Ethyl-1-hexanol (2E1H) is a possible causative chemical for sick building symptoms; however, thus far, we do not have a clear understanding of the indoor air pollution levels caused by it. In this study, first, airborne 2E1H concentrations were measured during
The feasibility of using native lipase A from Candida antarctica (CAL-A) to esterify fatty acids with water-insoluble alcohols in the presence of excess water was investigated in stirred-tank reactors. For high reaction rates, a ratio of water:substrates of 0.6-1.4:1 (v/v)

2-Ethyl-1-hexanol is a possibly causative chemical in sick building symptoms, although 2-ethyl-1-hexanol has received little attention as a hazardous substance in studies on indoor air pollution. Airborne 2-ethyl-1-hexanol concentrations were measured from 2002 to 2004 in 99 rooms of 42
Mesoporous materials, such as aerogels, offer advantages for practical hydrogen storage. They have large surface areas, open porosity, small pore sizes, and the ability to coat the surface with one or more compounds.
