Many hydrogen-bonded liquids, especially glass-forming cases, display a dielectric relaxation behavior that differs qualitatively from that of other simple liquids. The majority of models aimed at explaining this unusual dielectric behavior associate the prominent Debye process with structural relaxation, viscous

The authors evaluated changes of symptoms and biomarkers in health care staff (N = 18) for people with different physical dysfunctions and similarly in an external office control group in a nondamp building (N = 15). The first workplace had
It has been reported that the numbers of people suffering from occupational asthma and skin rashes triggered by various chemicals in indoor air have increased markedly. Two-ethyl-hexanol (2-EH) is known to be an indoor air pollutant and its influence on
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 (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
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.
