A Study Of Cholesterol And Lecithin Blood Levels In Rh Sensitized Women Treated With Rh Hapten, Franklyn Lewis

Masters Theses

The Problem And Its Background

Introduction

Perhaps one of the most popular subjects, and a subject which has been discussed a great deal by the layman is that of Rh and Rh incompatibilities.

Landsteiner¹ discovered the Rh property of human blood by means of immune sera prepared with the blood of rhesus monkeys. He was assisted in this work by Wiener², who states that the Rh property was found to be present in about 85% of white individuals, and independent of the blood groups and M-N type. It is these individuals who are referred to as Rh …

A Comparative Study Of The Jaw Movements Of Children With Normal And Abnormal Articulation, Jean Fraser Ward

Masters Theses

Review of the Literature

Introduction

It is surprising that there exist relatively few studies of the movement of the mandible or lower jaw with regard to misarticulation while the activity of the tongue, on the contrary, has received much attention. The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the extent of mandibular movement in the production of nonsense syllables and sentences as spoken by children with dyslalic and normal speech.

The Influence Of Clay Flocculation And Dispersion On The Covering Power Of Clay Coating Colors, Donald G. Pryor

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Historical Survey

Introduction

A survey of the literature showed that considerable information has been published on the effects of dispersing agents on the viscosity of coating colors and clay slurries. There seemed to be little work done on the effect of the dispersing agent on any other of the properties of the coating.

The Evaluation Of The Printability Of Papers By The I.G.T. Method, Robert W. Shaw

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Introduction

The purpose of this investigation was to determine to what extent the I.G.T. Tester could be used to determine the printability of paper. The investigation was carried out along two related paths. First to determine if the I.G.T. Tester could be used to give indications of actual press printability and secondly to determine if the results of the I.G.T. Tester were reproducible.

Some Effects In Chlorine Dioxide Purification Of Kraft Softwood Cellulose, Maynard C. Nieboer

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Introduction

Up until the middle thirties, chlorine dioxide had been considered an expensive bleaching agent and also had been too explosive to ship as a gas, so it had remained a laboratory curiosity since its discovery in the 19th century. In the middle thirties, Mathieson Chemical Corporation found that solid sodium chlorite was a cheap and effective carrier of chlorine dioxide. This discovery opened the door for extensive use of chlorine dioxide and since then it has come into its own as a bleaching agent. This investigation is concerned with the three methods of generation of chlorine dioxide from sodium …

The Influence Of Hexamethylenetetramine And Formaldehyde On The Rheological Behavior Of Casein Base Coating Colors, Chester W. Faram

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

The experimental work presented in this thesis shows the effects of formaldehyde and hexamethylenetetramine on the flow characteristics of coating colors formulated with casein as an adhesive. All experiments were performed at room temperature.

In general, the pH has marked effect upon viscosity of the coating colors: the higher the pH value, the more viscous the coating color. Furthermore, formaldehyde reacted faster with proteinaceous coating colors than hexamine.

Specifically, coating colors containing four per cent hexamine showed little change in viscosity and flow behavior while coating colors at the neutral pH value of seven containing eight per cent hexamine showed …

Synthetic Polymers In Coating Colors: The Adhesive Values Of Lattices And Their Effects On Properties Of Laboratory Coated Papers, Shwang Hsia

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Five synthetic latices have been evaluated as to their adhesive values and influence on optical properties of the coated papers.

The five synthetic polymers were acrylates, acrylonitrile-buta-diene, polyethylene, polystyrene-butadiene, and vinyl acetate.

The latices were used to substitute, on a pound per pound basis, 25, 50 and 75 percent of the casein used as binder in a standard coating color consisting of 100 parts of coating clay and 16 parts of casein.

Higher adhesive values than that of straight casein were established by acrylates and two butadiene copolymers. Vinyl acetate and polyethylene possessed lower adhesive values than straight casein color. …

The Comparison Of High And Low Shear Viscometers For Determining Rheological Characteristics In Pigmented Coatings, Philip J. Meyer

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Introduction

The purpose of this investigation was to determine if there was any relationship between the rheograms of the Hercules High Shear Viscometer and the Stormer Low Shear Viscometer when applied to paper pigmented coatings.

Pigmented Coating On Unbleached Paper, Robert I-Ching Yin

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Much work has been done generally on the coating of paper, but very little literature is available on the coating of unbleached paper or unbleached book stock. Therefore, the covering power of the coating in this study is of the chief interest.

Keys To Professional Information For Teachers, Roy C. Bryan

Faculty Contributions (1950-1981)

One is well aware that graduate students, in the earlier days of their advanced study, tend to be wasteful of their time and effort. Much of this waste is caused by the fact that they have little knowledge of the library keys and indexes that will aid them in locating references quickly and assembling bibliographies that are pertinent to their papers and projects.

This publication is designed to provide that much n needed assistance. The materials contained herein, admittedly, do not include every key and index that is now available. However, the School of Graduate Studies is convinced that those …

An Ecological Survey Of Maple Products As A Natural Resource Of Athens Township, Calhoun County, State Of Michigan, Ralph P. Gies

Masters Theses

I. The Problem

Statement of the problem. It was the purpose of this investigation to undertake a field study in Athens Township, Calhoun County, State of Michigan in order to (1) determine the ecological factors necessary for maple sap production; (2) relate the extent to which the natural resource is being used; and (3) determine economic and social values to the syrup producers. The information was compiled through the sue of interviews, questionnaires, research, and participation in a community project.

Bleaching Of Kraft Pulp By Means Of Hydrogen Peroxide. The Effect Of Acid Treatment And Calcium Chloride Treatment Before The Last Stage, William J. Haselow

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

From the results of the experimental work conducted, it appears that hydrochloric acid pretreatment of chlorinated and caustic extracted, and, also, chlorinated, caustic extracted, and calcium hypochlorite bleached kraft pulp before last stage hydrogen peroxide bleaching was not beneficial to final brightness.

Calcium chloride pretreatment, on the other hand, was definitely of value to final brightness in three stage bleaching. However, calcium chloride pretreatment of chlorinated, caustic extracted, and calcium hypochlorite bleached kraft pulp did not increase pulp brightness to a significant extent.

It seems, therefore, that there was an optimum concentration of calcium salts which was of maximum benefit …

The Effect Of Galacto-Mannans On Handsheets Made From Softwood, Hardwood Or Rag Pulps, Thomas R. Murwin

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Some published information reports that galacto-mannans, when used as strength producing beater additives, do not effect significant strength increases in hardwood pulps. In order to investigate this problem further, six pulps covering a wide range of pulping processes and chemical compositions, were evaluated before and after the addition of locust bean gum, a galacto-mannan, to the pulp.

The results obtained indicate that galacto-mannans do favorably affect the strength properties of hardwood pulps. Substantial increases in bursting strength, tensile strength and folding endurance were noted for all the hardwood pulps employed, as well as for a rag pulp. These strength increases …
