Corgard [Corning], TM for a borosiheate glass armored with an opaque, filament-wound laminate of glass fiber and a modified polyester resin. [Pg.337]

Contrary to expectations, small quantities of char were collected after each experiment. Soot formation was evident, and particularly prominent following the corn cob experiment. Coking of the volatile matter on the reactor wall beneath the window rendered the lower part of the reactor opaque. The water condensate was a light yellow color with a disagreeable (but not strong or particularly foul) odor. No tar was observed in the condenser, but the teflon tube connecting the reactor to the condenser was blackened. [Pg.241]

EVA does not bond well to all metals. Copper is particularly difficult, which poses a problem copper is the best candidate for low-cost photovoltaic cell metallization. Some primer tests were run using two primers. The first was zinc chromate powder, 10 parts Dow-Corning Silane Z-6030, 9.9 parts N, N-di-methylbenzyl amine, 0.1 part and methanol, 30 parts. Because the zinc chromate is opaque and difficult to keep in suspension, the second primer omitted it. [Pg.416]

Pourable frying oils are popular because of their convenience in handling. They range from clear to opaque fluids at room temperature. Refined, bleached, and deodorized (RBD) vegetable oils, e.g., soybean, cottonseed, corn, and canola may be used, but they are not stable to oxidation. Therefore,... [Pg.1203]

High-Lysine Corn (Opaque-2, or O2). It has been known for many years that corn, the world s third most important human food after rice and wheat, is nutritionally inadequate. [Pg.241]

For years, plant scientists assayed the world s corn varieties one by one, looking for a strain with more nutritionally balanced protein. Finally, in 1963, a Purdue University team headed by biochemist Edwin T. Mertz analyzed an odd group of corns characterized by soft, floury endosperm inside an opaque, chalk-white kernel. The Purdue scientists found that the opaque characteristic of corn, which had been noted for years without exciting much scientific interest, is associated with a recessive gene that replaces some of the kernel s amino acid deficient zein with other protein higher in the needed lysine and tryptophan. The mutant— routinely labeled opaque-2, or O2 for short—had a lysine... [Pg.241]

In the new mutant corn, opaque-2, the ratio between the protein fractions is changed, with the zein content lowered from about 50% to less than 30% of the protein. The net result of this changed ratio is that opaque-2 has a higher content of lysine and tryptophan than regular corn. For this reason, corn of this type can supply a larger part of the protein requirement in the diets of people than ordinary corn. [Pg.242]

The characteristics of these cooked viscous solutions vary from starch to starch. After cooling to room temperature, the starch from roots are clearer and more fluid, while starch from the cereal grains yield a cloudy less fluid paste that tends to be jellylike. These characteristics are dependent upon the amylose and amylopectin content of the starch and upon the size of the amylose and amylopectin molecule. Some hybrids—waxy hybrids—of corn and sorghum have been developed which yield starch that is almost entirely amylopectin, while other hybrids have a high amylose content. Overall, the tendency to thicken or gel upon cooling, and to become opaque is caused by the presence of amylose. [Pg.987]
