The data of Table II indicate that pellet production is not sensitive to contained moisture over a wide range. Some moisture is needed for die lubrication and pellet cohesion high moisture content results in a scaly, loose-bound pellet which breaks more easily in handling than others. Considering both equipment operations and pellet properties, the preferred moisture content is judged to be in the range 15 - 20%. 

Sand production has application in any reservoir where conditions are appropriate (low cohesion, high porosity, blockage or scaling problems, etc.). 

Colloid prepared from vapor silica dioxide is widely used in lead-acid batteries. Colloid prepared from vapor silica dioxide has the advantages of strong cohesion, high active surface, and superior electrode performance. However, it is relatively...

If the concentration of junction points is high enough, even branches will contain branches. Eventually a point is reached at which the amount of branching is so extensive that the polymer molecule becomes a giant three-dimensional network. When this condition is achieved, the molecule is said to be cross-linked. In this case, an entire macroscopic object may be considered to consist of essentially one molecule. The forces which give cohesiveness to such a body are covalent bonds, not intermolecular forces. Accordingly, the mechanical behavior of cross-linked bodies is much different from those without cross-linking. 

Neoprene—phenohc contact adhesives, known for thein high green strength and peel values, contain a resole-type resin prepared from 4-/-butylphenol. The alkyl group increases compatibiHty and reduces cross-linking. This resin reacts or complexes with the metal oxide, eg, MgO, contained in the formulation, and increases the cohesive strength of the adhesive. In fact, the reactivity with MgO is frequently measured to determine the effectiveness of heat-reactive phenoHcs in the formulation. 

The modulus of elasticity can also influence the adhesion lifetime. Some sealants may harden with age as a result of plasticizer loss or continued cross-linking. As a sealant hardens, the modulus increases and more stress is placed on the substrate—sealant adhesive bond. If modulus forces become too high, the bond may faH adhesively or the substrate may faH cohesively, such as in concrete or asphalt. In either case the result is a faHed joint that wHl leak. 

Oilseed proteins are used as food ingredients at concentrations of 1—2% to nearly 100%. At low concentrations, the proteins are added primarily for their functional properties, eg, emulsification, fat absorption, water absorption, texture, dough formation, adhesion, cohesion, elasticity, film formation, and aeration (86) (see Food processing). Because of high protein contents, textured flours and concentrates are used as the principal ingredients of some meat substitutes. 

Polyurethane adhesives are known for excellent adhesion, flexibihty, toughness, high cohesive strength, and fast cure rates. Polyurethane adhesives rely on the curing of multifunctional isocyanate-terrninated prepolymers with moisture or on the reaction with the substrate, eg, wood and ceUulosic fibers. Two-component adhesives consist of an isocyanate prepolymer, which is cured with low equivalent weight diols, polyols, diamines, or polyamines. Such systems can be used neat or as solution. The two components are kept separately before apphcation. Two-component polyurethane systems are also used as hot-melt adhesives. 

Three forms of set may be conferred to wool fibers. (/) Cohesive set is imparted when the fibers are dried under strain or set in steam and is lost when the fibers are relaxed in water at room temperature. (2) Temporary set is imparted at higher temperatures and is lost when the fibers are wet out in hot (70°C) water. (2) Permanent set is imparted in boiling water and in high pressure steam, and is stable to release in hot water. 

Zirconium is a highly active metal which, like aluminum, seems quite passive because of its stable, cohesive, protective oxide film which is always present in air or water. Massive zirconium does not bum in air, but oxidizes rapidly above 600°C in air. Clean zirconium plate ignites spontaneously in oxygen of ca 2 MPa (300 psi) the autoignition pressure drops as the metal thickness decreases. Zirconium powder ignites quite easily. Powder (<44 fim or—325 mesh) prepared in an inert atmosphere by the hydride—dehydride process ignites spontaneously upon contact with air unless its surface has been conditioned, ie, preoxidized by slow addition of air to the inert atmosphere. Heated zirconium is readily oxidized by carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, or water vapor.
