Vehicles selection

Topical medications usually consist of active ingredients incorporated in a vehicle that facilitates cutaneous application. Important considerations in vehicle selection include the solubility of the active agent in the vehicle the rate of release of the agent from the vehicle the ability of the vehicle to hydrate the stratum corneum, thus enhancing penetration the stability of the therapeutic agent in the vehicle and interactions, chemical and physical, of the vehicle, stratum corneum, and active agent.

Beyond considering the solvent formulators must also consider the biology and state of the skin, and whether transient or sustained delivery is desired. Generally, semisolid formulations are selected for increased residence on the skin, and liquid formulations for a rapid short-term input of permeant into the skin. In both the clinical and cosmetic domains, skin type can affect the choice of formulation base in that usually for normal to oily skin types, gels are preferred but for normal to dry skin types lotions are usually selected and for dry skin, creams are often the preferred base. As well as skin type, the skin site to be treated can affect vehicle selection. For example, for hairy areas lotions, gels or sprays are usually preferable as these spread better whereas for intertriginous areas, creams or lotions are usually employed. 

During the dynamic phases of this cycle, which lasts about 20 s with accelerations of about 1 m/s, peak power requirement of about 50 kW for the vehicle selected are certainly expected. Evaluating an average efficiency for the electric drives and DC-DC converters of about 0.8 and FCS average total voltage of about 55 V, the above value of engine peak power means a stack current derivative of about 50 A/s. 

The block of WTP questions was opened by a question on whether the respondents in the case of a referendum would be in favour of the payment vehicle selected for the WT P questions, i.e. contributions from consumers to a Special Fimd for Resource Management. This payment vehicle turned out to be quite successful, since about three out of four respondents answered that they would vote in favour of such a fund. Those who opposed the estahlishment of a fund met questions on whether they would instead be in favour of increased water tariffs or an introduction of restrictions and regulations for industry and agriculture. When the latter payment vehicle was suggested, it was emphasised that such restrictions and regulations would involve an increase in consumer prices. Table 6.5 summarises the answers to all payment vehicle questions. They are also illustrated hy Figure 6.3.

Beyond these limiting factors, process temperature restrictions may be imparted by solvent vehicle selection, drying capacity, and spray rate considerations. These concerns are discussed in Section 7.4.4. 

This paper does not set out to argue the case for international standards, but rather assumes that a strong case exists and discusses the current development of one particular set of structural engineering standards for use within the mining industry. The vehicle selected for this development is the International Standards Organization (ISO). 

The vehicle selected for the development of an international standard for mining structures is ISO. ISO is a respected and widely recognized standards organization using carefully formulated and documented standards development procedures. 

Vehicle selection, maintenance, and inspection procedru-es. Employers can use vehicle crash test ratings to help select safe vehicles. The manufacturer s recommended vehicle maintenance program shordd be followed. Vehicles should have regular inspections, and drivers should know how to report defects. Repairs should be made by qualified mechanics. 

As noted earlier, lead-free alloys require high reflow temperatures compared to eutectic Sn-Pb— with thermal profile plateaus in the range of 180-190°C, which are too high for fluxes formulated for eutectic Sn-Pb solder. The oxidation of rosin in air and the increased polymerization at elevated temperatures result in residues that are very difficult to clean with standard solvents. Flux vehicles selected for use in lead-free solder pastes are dramatically different from those used in eutectic Sn-Pb solder pastes. It was determined that cleaning products that preformed very well with eutectic Sn-Pb technology did not remove some residues left as a result of the new flux vehicle formulated for a lead-free solder [11].
