They tested packaging materials and found that a polypropylene tray with laminate tagger seal offered a shelf life of 8 days. The team designed the package dimensions and components. Their cost analysis found the total package cost to be Rs. 2.75.
This document summarizes the key details of the Para Premium 900 Series Interior Water-based Paint in the Flat Finish. It is a water-based, low-lustre interior paint with great hiding power and a non-yellowing formula. The paint dries rapidly, has low odor, and complies with Canadian VOC standards. It is suitable for walls in living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms and can be used for new work or maintenance on surfaces previously painted with water-based or solvent-based paint. Thorough surface preparation is required prior to application.
This document summarizes a study on industrial symbiosis on the island of Händelö in Sweden. The study looks at how multiple companies on the island exchange byproducts, waste, energy and other resources in an integrated system. Key aspects include the production of 210 million liters per year of ethanol from grains, 500,000 cubic meters of biomethane gas per year, and the use of 27,000 tons per year of waste from Norrköping for heat and electricity production. The integrated system leads to reductions in CO2 emissions and cereal inputs compared to a default scenario. Improving the system further by replacing fossil fuels with biofuels and optimizing processes could generate even more benefits.

The document discusses developments in conductive inks for printed electronics. It summarizes a masterclass on the future of conductive printing that covered: 1) the current status and types of conductive inks, 2) a EU project called CLIP that developed low-cost silver and copper nanoparticle inks for various printing methods, and 3) state-of-the-art developments by companies in producing more conductive and lower cost inks, such as NANOGAP's stable silver nanoparticle dispersions and multimodal particles. The conclusions are that while printed electronics growth has not met expectations, technical issues are now being solved and commercial uptake is increasing, which will help reduce costs and allow printed electronics to compete.

Iarigai lanat communication on visual perception and colour management montre...Luc LANAT
This document summarizes several studies on visual perception of paper whiteness and colour management for commercial printing papers. It finds that whiteness measurements better match visual perception compared to brightness. Colour gamut calculations should integrate paper data to avoid colour shifts versus targets. Printing trials show colour gamut is similar for papers that differ only in brightness at full tones, but there is a 5 unit shift in b* axis at 40% tone. Overall, the document aims to clarify misunderstandings in communication between paper and printing industries and contribute to standardization.
The Kodak NexPress Intelligent Dimensional Coating Solution adds a raised or 3D effect to digital prints that helps communications stand out.
