CO2-switchable drying agents
(Green Chemistry, 2015-08-24)CO2-switchable desiccants have been prepared and evaluated for the drying of isobutanol. CO2 addition triggered the binding of water to the drying agent, while CO2 displacement triggered the water's facile release. The ... -
Supercritical fluid rectification of lignin pyrolysis oil methyl ether (LOME) and its use as a bio-derived aprotic solvent
(Green Chemistry, 2015-11-25)Lignin oil methyl ether (LOME) is a bio-derived solvent obtained from lignin by pyrolysis, methylation, and rectification. It performs well as an alternative polar aprotic solvent for organic reactions such as the Menschutkin ... -
A guide to the selection of switchable functional groups for CO2-switchable compounds
(Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2016-06-24)Many CO2-responsive species, including many of the CO2-switchable surfactants, solvents, solutes, gels, colloids, and surfaces, rely on the ability of CO2 to lower the pH of water. Uncharged basic groups on the CO2-responsive ... -
CO2-Catalysed aldol condensation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and acetone to a jet fuel precursor
(Green Chemistry, 2016-01-01)CO2 can act as a catalyst for the production of bio-jet fuel precursors through aldol condensation. CO2-Catalysed aldol condensation of HMF with acetone gives a >95% yield of [4-(5-hydroxymethyl-2-furyl)-3-butenone] ... -
INVESTIGATING THE ROLES OF HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS TYPE 2 PROTEINS UL21 AND US3 IN REGULATION OF THE NUCLEAR EGRESS COMPLEX
Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (HSV-2) nuclear egress is mediated by viral nuclear egress complex (NEC) proteins, pUL31 and pUL34, found at the inner nuclear membrane of infected cells (INM). Nuclear egress requires successful ... -
Social Justice Mathematics: Supporting and Encouraging Teaching Mathematics through a Social Justice Lens
(2021-04)The purpose of this project was to create a research-informed resource to help educators of Grade 4-6 students effectively integrate issues of social justice into their mathematics teaching. The Ontario mathematics ... -
Liquid Phase Exfoliation of Graphite into Graphene Nanoplatelets using Graphene Oxide as Surfactant
In this study, graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) are prepared using graphene oxide (GO), a derivative of graphene, as the dispersing agent in the liquid phase exfoliation of raw fake graphite. Graphene oxide has similar properties ... -
A Series and Parallel Tuned DC-DC Resonant Converter with Hybrid Modulation
Series and parallel tuned resonant converters have traditionally been operated at a constant frequency by employing Phase-Shift Modulation (PSM). It provides excellent efficiency from full - load to near no - load while ... -
Temperature’s Effect on the Speed of Light
(2021-05-04)In this experiment, our group investigates the effect of temperature on the speed of light by experimentally measuring the change in the angle of refraction through common glass over a 100C range in temperature while ... -

Desiring, Departing, and Dying, Affectively Speaking: Epithymia in Philippians
(The Bible and Critical Theory, 2019)In a text that has caused no shortage of speculation and consternation, Paul links “desire” (epithymia) with “death” in writing of his “desire to depart and be with Christ” (Phil. 1:23). While “desire” has mostly negative ... -

Dynamic Modelling for the Design of Head-Neck Load Carriage Systems
Head load-carriage systems have broad application, allowing people to carry awkward or heavy loads, but can cause chronic pain when the neck is loaded improperly. Studies have identified military helicopter crew neck pain ... -
Capacitance performance of NiO thin films synthesized by direct and pulse potentiostatic methods
(Springer, 2019-07-20)Transition metal oxides have applications into energy storage devices such as electrochemical supercapacitors. We deposited nickel oxide (NiO) thin films using electrodeposition under direct and pulse potentiometry. The ... -
Enhancement of the capacitance properties and the photoelectrochemical performances of P3HT film by incorporation of nickel oxide nanoparticles
(Springer, 2018-11-15)P3HT films were modified by incorporation of different amounts of nickel oxide (NiO). The nickel oxide powder was synthe- sized by chronoamperometry. The composites were further dissolved and deposited by the spin-coating ... -
Photonic crystal based broadband graphene saturable absorber
(OSA Publishing, 2019-10-01)The enhanced saturable absorption (SA) of a one- dimensional (1D) photonic crystal (PC) made from polymers and graphene composites by spin-coating is observed. It shows obvious bandgaps at two wavelengths in transmittance. ... -
Voyageur Philosophers: Exploring Canoe Expedition Pedagogy
In Canada, the canoe is an integral part of the history and development of nationhood (Raffan, 1999), a vital part of its leisure and tourism industry (Stebbins, 2005), and a central focus of many summer camps and outdoor ... -
Synthesis and properties of alumina-hydroxyapatite composites from natural phosphate for phenol removal from water
(Elsevier, 2019-07-01)Phenol is very abundant in the aquatic environment and therefore requires an effective treatment using porous and low-cost adsorbents. Alumina-hydroxyapatite composites were prepared from natural phosphate ore in the ... -
Development of sulfonate-functionalized hydroxyapatite nanoparticles for cadmium removal from aqueous solutions
(Elsevier, 2019-05-01)Sulfonate-functionalized hydroxyapatite was successfully synthesized by organo- functionalization using natural phosphate and Benzenedisulfonate molecules. The modified apatites were characterized using multiple techniques, ...
