Influence of Polyolefin Contamination on the Thermal Characteristics of Bottle Grade Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate by Itim, Bachir

“…Furthermore, the crystallinity of the rPET-bg matrix showed the impact of polyolefin contamination as a result of variation of cooling rates and that cross-linking and chain branching predominated over chain scissions as a result of repetitive extrusions. …”

An analytical study of the role of selected metal ions in bone and joint diseases by Furst, Alexandra

“…The speciation of the titanium (III)/titanium (IV) complexes in the biological matrices was investigated with Fourier transform infra red (FTIR) spectroscopy and high field proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) with a Hahn spin echo pulse sequence. The chemical nature of non-protein bound iron present in knee joint synovial fluid obtained from RA patients was also investigated by use of NMR…”

Fiscal spillovers in the Euro area by Caporale, Guglielmo Maria, Girardi, Alessandro

“…The estimation of a multivariate, multi-country time series model (specifically a Global VAR, or GVAR) using quarterly data for the EMU period suggests that euro-denominated government yields are strongly linked with each other. However, financial markets seem to be able to discriminate among different issuers. …”
