The permeability of Brazilian Eucalyptus grandis and Eucalyptus citriodora wood was measured in a custom build gas analysis chamber in order to determine which species could be successfully treated with preservatives. ...

Oscillatory fluid movements in heterogeneous porous rocks induced by seismic waves cause dissipation of wave field energy. The resulting seismic signature depends not only on the rock compressibility distribution, but also ...

The aim of this work was to study the mechanisms involved in intestinal permeability of gonyautoxins. For this purpose, the influence on transmucosal resistance of gonyautoxins and their permeability was investigated in ...

Composites manufactured by resin transfer molding depend on appropriate processing parameters to ensure adequate reinforcement-matrix adhesion. Permeability predicts the fluid flow resistance through reinforcement. The ...

The effect of murta (Ugni molinae Turcz) leaves extract on water vapor permeability (WVP) and gas permeability (GP) of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)-based films was studied. Two ecotypes of murta leaves “Soloyo Grande” (SG) ...

Rifampicin, a poorly soluble drug, has great importance in therapeutics as it is the main drug used to treat tuberculosis. The characterization of its permeability and the factors that influence it represent an important ...

The permeability of material is a relevant characteristic of porous media that can be applied on several science and engineering fields. Polymers are chemical compounds of high molecular weight and those which are water ...
