High-energy mixing

Styrene—butadiene—styrene modified bitumen is an elastomeric material mixed into an asphalt between 10 and 15%. By using high energy mixing, the SBS is uniformly dispersed throughout the asphalt to form a network, referred to as phase reversal because the minor component s (SBS) physical properties are displayed by the final mixture. A properly formulated SBS asphalt blend has an elongation of 100% or greater and is flexible down to temperatures below —6°C. 

The sequential reactions that occur within the active site of aminoacyl-tRNA synthesis are (1) the formation of aminoacyl-AMP, which contains a high-energy mixed anhydride bond, and (2) linkage of the aminoacyl group to its specific tRNA. 

Pentaerythritol tetranitrate is a high energy explosive that is used as a pressed base charge in blasting caps and detonators, as the core explosive in commercial detonating cord, and as the main explosive ingredient in sheet explosives. It is also mixed in various proportions with TNT to form the less sensitive pentoHtes, eg, PETN 50/TNT 50. PETN is easily initiated, its responses are reproducible, and it is readily available (144—146).

High energy dyes are requited in the Thermosol appHcation and in those instances in which the dyed fabric is subjected to a heat-setting treatment. Each energy type has a characteristic rate of exhaust and, as a consequence, only disperse dyes of the same energy class are used in mixes for shade matching purposes.
