Problems and challenges associated with estimating the emissions of organic compounds from indoor materials
PublicationFor several years intensive research has been carried out with the aim of developing a database of the types and amounts of pollutants released from indoor materials to the indoor environment. The paper discusses in detail basic problems and challenges encountered when estimating the emissions of chemical compounds released from of indoor materials. Factors affecting the validity of data obtained by using two different types of...

Stress strain relations and modulus of elascity of two stage concrete.
PublicationOmówiono badania doświadczalne przeprowadzone dla betonu dwuetapowego. Beton wykonano z trzech różnych kruszyw przy zastosowaniu trzech różnych proporcji w/c i c/p. Wyznaczono związki pomiędzy naprężeniami i odkształceniami. Na drodze statystycznej opracowano wzory umożliwiające wstępne szacowanie wartości siecznego modułu Younga. Ponieważ metoda dwuetapowa pozwala na zachowanie kontaktu pomiędzy poszczególnymi elementami kamiennego...

Green TPUs from Prepolymer Mixtures Designed by Controlling the Chemical Structure of Flexible Segments
PublicationThis study concerns green thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) obtained by controlling the chemical structure of flexible segments. Two types of bio-based polyether polyols—poly(trimethylene glycol)s—with average molecular weights ca. 1000 and 2700 Da were used (PO3G1000 and PO3G2700, respectively). TPUs were prepared via a two-step method. Hard segments consisted of 4,4?- diphenylmethane diisocyanates and the bio-based 1,4-butanodiol...

Vascular stents - materials and manufacturing technologies
PublicationThe objective of this article is to present materials and technology for the manufacture of vascular stents with appropriate design requirements. The use of the right material is very important in implantology. A biomaterial introduced into the circulatory system must be biocompatible and hemocompatible. At the same time, it should not initiate toxic, mutagenic, or immunological reactions. Currently, 316L stainless steel (316L...

Sb measurements in a Bi-Sb-Te ceramics materials
Open Research DataThe influence of the temperature of the annealing of ceramic materials with the composition Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3O9 was investigated. The materials were annealed at the temperature of 440 degrees Celsius and 450 degrees Celsius. There were no significant differences in the valence of antimony and other elements.
