Polyethylene is the most important and widely used plastic in the world and it is used in a wide range of consumer plastics.

An unsolved challenge in catalysis is the efficient and selective functionalization of simple alkanes and plentiful hydrocarbon feedstocks. One promising approach since the late 1990’s is the use of ...

It's packed with hydrocarbons such as alkanes and alkenes. These hydrocarbons act as solvents and are ruthless in stripping away the cell membranes of a plant. They also attack the waxy protective ...

In a new video, an esthetician says these popular makeup items, including e.l.f. foundation and Supergoop sunscreen, can ...

The longest unbranched chain containing the functional group is the parent molecule, or simply the longest unbranched chain for alkanes. Remember that, the longest chain can go round a bend.

however our instrument is optimized to quantify straight-chain alkanes from C11-C36 (or thereabouts). Samples in solvent matrices (e.g. hexanes) are volatilized in a heated sample introduction system, ...

It feels weightless and goes on light while hydrating with coconut alkanes. Clarins uses sustainably sourced ingredients and 40% of its ingredients are organic. It comes in four different colors ...

"Typical ones you'll see include various esters like coco-caprylate/caprate, ethylhexyl olivate, various types of palmitates, isododecane, and alkanes, like c9-12 alkane or coconut alkanes," Koestline ...

Gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer analysis of long-chain n-alkanes exposed to such volatiles showed that some decomposition occurred even <250°C. Reactions with anions donated by the volatiles led ...

ALBANY — Albany State University recently hosted its 12th annual Undergraduate Research Symposium. Sixty students presented scholarly research projects that aligned with the theme “Academic Excellence ...

Dr. Thomas Gold, in his 1992 book “ The Deep Hot Biosphere, ” postulates that the methane, outgassing from the earth’s core ...

The longest unbranched chain containing the functional group is the parent molecule, or simply the longest unbranched chain for alkanes. Remember that, the longest chain can go round a bend.
