Substituted Phenols. Phenol itself is used in the largest volume, but substituted phenols are used for specialty resins (Table 2). Substituted phenols are typically alkylated phenols made from phenol and a corresponding a-olefin with acid catalysts (13). Acidic catalysis is frequendy in the form of an ion-exchange resin (lER) and the reaction proceeds preferentially in the para position. For example, in the production of /-butylphenol using isobutylene, the product is >95% para-substituted. The incorporation of alkyl phenols into the resin reduces reactivity, hardness, cross-link density, and color formation, but increases solubiHty in nonpolar solvents, dexibiHty, and compatibiHty with natural oils. 

Travoprost causes changes in iris pigmentation (3.1-5.0%) and changes in eyelash characteristics, including length, thickness, density, and color (44-57%), similar to those described with latanoprost, after 12 months (1). 

We developed systems where we could conveniently control the parameters affecting the assemblies and characterize them. These parameters include the shapes, surface properties, densities, and colors of the objects the directionality of the forces between objects and the densities and surface properties of the fluids. Some of these systems allow quick examination of tens to thousands of assembling particles. Agitation is normally in the form of fluid shear or gravity. The following sections describe some of the successes and failures in these experiments in self-assembly. 

In recent years other methods for the detection of the onset or the progress of thermally dependent reactions have been employed with increasing frequency. The measurements used include those of conductivity, density, optical density and color, volume changes, electron and x-ray diffraction, infrared absorption, nuclear magnetic resonance and various others 24, 32,33). 

Intensive property A property of a substance that is not dependent upon the size of the sample, such as density and color. 

With silicon there are formed the silicide ZrSi2, the natural silicate ZrSiO, and various complex silicates. Native zircon as well as certain other zirconium ores are quite strongly radioactive, and when heated they display luminescence and suffer a change in density and color. Zircon also shows2 the property of triboluminescence. 

The use of alkyl phenols such as cresol in phenolic resin production reduces reactivity, hardness, cross-linking density and color formation but increases solubility in non polar solvents, flexibility, and compatibility with natural oils. At room temperature, o- and p-cresol are crystalline solids, while m-cresol is a viscous oil. Cresols are less soluble in water than phenol is (Weber and Weber, 2010). Approximately 60% of cresol is obtained from coal tar and crude oil using classical techniques such as distillation and liquid-liquid extraction. The remaining 40% is obtained synthetically by the alkylation of phenol with methanol (Fink, 2005). In addition to phenolic resins, cresols are also used in the production of herbicides, fungicides, disinfectants, plasticizers, epoxy resins and pharmaceuticals (Fink, 2005 Weber and Weber, 2010). 

Fig. 5.91 A reflected light micrograph (A) shows the layered structures in a molded bar aligned parallel to the flow direction (arrow). Variation in density and color reflect variation in orientation from layer to layer. Lateral, curved flow patterns are seen in a polarized light micrograph overview of a thin section (B) (color section). The flow layers are nearly normal to the flow direction (arrow) in the center of the bar (C) (color section).

Other characteristics of isocyanates that are analyzed are total chlorine content, the content of hydrolyzable chlorine, acid content, freezing point, density and color.
