These crosslinked polymers are water-insoluble. They do not melt at high temperatures but rather deteriorate. However, after roughly 16 hours at 80 degrees Celsius, the acids "cut" the chains, stabilising the polymers and allowing recycling.
Washington: A new study has found that to survive short periods of heat stress, plants activate a molecular pathway called the heat-shock response. The research has been published in the ‘EMBO Journal’. This heat-shock response (common to all organisms) protects cells from damage inflicted by proteotoxic stress, which damages proteins. Such stress is not only […]
Grape consumption was protective; more UV exposure was required to cause sunburn following grape consumption, with MED increasing on average by 74.8 per cent.
