This manuscript describes the development and application of a simple, inexpensive, and green method for the quantification of urea in skin moisturizer creams, using a combined spot test/diffuse reflectance spectroscopy ...

The stagnant effective thermal conductivities (K0) of sugar cane bagasse (SCB), wheat bran (WB), orange pulp and peel (OPP) and their combination (weight proportion 1:2:2 SCB/OPP/WB) were obtained using the line heat source ...

This paper presents the design of an impulsive ultra-wideband test-bed, developed for remote sensing of dielectric targets. The platform is used for estimating the moisture content in polyamide targets. The main aspects ...

This work addresses the effect of wildland fuel moisture content on flame radiation. A wildland fuel layer composed of Pinus radiata needles was experimentally studied using a specially designed burner, which produced small ...

This article reports on modified chitosan as an alternative substance for protecting loss of volatile compounds during freeze drying. Moisture sorption isotherms of freeze-dried D-limonene emulsions in modified chitosan ...
