14. Biofilm formation by Prototheca zopfii isolated from clinical and subclinical bovine mastitis in distinct growth conditions under different dyes
RESUMO: Prototheca spp. tem sido relatado como um patógeno ambiental causador de mastite bovina em vários países. A formação de biofilme é um fator associado a diferentes graus de virulência desenvolvidos por muitos microrganismos, incluindo Prototheca zopfii. O presente estudo teve como objetivo comparar duas condições de crescimento e dois corant

15. INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY FOR DETERMINING TRAY TEMPERATURE IN LETTUCE PRODUCTION
ABSTRACT This research was carried out in Recife, PE, Brazil, and aimed to assess the variation of the surface temperature of trays and substrate in the production of lettuce seedlings and its influence on the final product. Trays consisted of expanded polystyrene, conventional polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl chloride painted white, and polyvinyl chloride pain

16. Simulation of an Injection Process Using a CAE Tool: Assessment of Operational Conditions and Mold Design on the Process Efficiency
The present work developed an experimental and simulation study to evaluate the influence of some operational conditions and mold design on the efficiency of an injection process used to produce polystyrene parts. The software SolidWorks Plastic was used to simulate the injection process and assess the performance of the mold considering the absence and the

17. ARTIFACTS IN THE ANALYSIS AND ASSESSMENT OF LOW-COST CONTAINERS FOR SAMPLING AND STORING GREENHOUSE GASES
The objectives of this study were twofold: to assess two chromatographic methods for the analysis of greenhouse gases (GHG) and carbon monoxide, and to propose and evaluate a low-cost and reusable alternative system for their sampling and storage, using 10 different container configurations (flasks and bags). To that end, standard samples containing the gase

18. Polystyrene and cornstarch anti-corrosive coatings on steel
Abstract This work aims to evaluate the performance of anticorrosive thermoplastic coatings in cold rolled steel sheets. Two types of thermoplastic coatings were studied: polystyrene (PS) and cornstarch. These types of coatings are applied for protection against corrosion during transport and storage of steel plates after cold rolling until delivery to stam

19. LEWIS ACID SITES OF Mg2+-MODIFIED POLYSTYRENE SULFONIC ACID RESIN CATALYSYS FOR SYNTHESIS OF DIBUTYL SUCCINATE
The polystyrene sulfonic acid resin catalysts were fabricated, containing elements of Cl and Mg through oxidization and impregnation, and they were characterized by EDS, FT-IR spectra, Py-IR spectra, UV spectra, XPS and TGA to investigate their physiochemical properties. The catalytic performances of these catalysts were examined in the esterification reacti

20. Toughening of polystyrene using styrene-butadiene rubber (SBRr) waste from the shoe industry
Abstract The vulcanized rubber waste from the shoe industry causes environmental damage when it is incinerated or inappropriately discarded, turning this into a problem of major concern. Therefore, this study had as the main objective the Polystyrene (PS) toughening using different contents of white vulcanized styrene-butadiene rubber (SBRr) waste produced i

21. EFFECT OF NANOSILICA ON THERMAL, FLAMMABILITY, AND MORPHOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF WF/RPS-BASED NANOCOMPOSITES
ABSTRACT The present study considered the effect of nanosilica levels on the thermal, flammability, and morphological properties of nanocomposites made of wood flour and recycled polystyrene. To do so, the recycled polystyrene (50%), wood flour (50%), nanosilica (four levels of nanosilica; 0, 2, 4 and 6 phc (parts per hundred compounds)), and maleic anhydrid

22. Thermal degradation of polymer systems having liquid crystalline oligoester segment
Abstract Block copolymers and blends comprised by liquid crystalline oligoester and polystyrene were prepared and their thermal stability were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The samples have shown three main decomposition temperatures due to (1) lost of flexible chain and decomposition of mesogenic segment, (2) decomposition of polystyren

23. Effect of peracetic acid on biofilms formed by Listeria monocytogenes strains isolated from a Brazilian cheese processing plant
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the effect of peracetic acid (PAA, 0.5%) on adherent cells of three strains of Listeria monocytogenes strains belonging to serotypes 4b and 1/2b that had been previously isolated from the environment of a Brazilian cheese plant. The assays were conducted using polystyrene microplates and stainless steel coupons and th

24. Characterization of Vitrocrystalline Foams Produced from Discarded Glasses and Recycled Polystyrene Spheres
In this work, discarded soda-lime glasses (from glass bottles) and recycled polystyrene (PS) spheres (d50 < 300 µm) were successfully converted into vitrocrystalline foams for thermal insulation applications. Physical and chemical properties of the selected and prepared raw materials (wastes) were characterized. Batches containing well mixed glass powder (d
