General description

Silicone oil AP 150 is a conventional electrorheologic (ER) fluid. It was employed as an insulating medium during the poling of hard ferroelectric ceramics. Silicon oil is composed of a mixture of hydrophobic polymeric and monomeric compounds, containing silicon-oxygen bonds. Its physical and chemical characteristics have been reported. The utility of silicon oil as a vitreous substitute has been studied.

Application

Silicone oil AP 150 was used to prevent the water evaporation during rheological characterization of injectable polysaccharide system based on calcium alginate hydrogel and two dextran methacrylate derivatives. It may be used for the determination of chloroplast volume by the silicone oil filtering centrifugation technique.

A novel injectable polysaccharide system based on calcium Alginate (Ca-Alg) hydrogel and two Dextran methacrylate derivatives (DexMA) was recently developed. The resulting Interpenetrating Polymer Network showed a synergistic mechanical behavior that can be exploited to target the hydrogel properties towards

The influence of interactions between particle surface and host fluids in electrorheological suspensions is explored. It is observed that dispersions of nanosized particles of titania in octanoid acid exhibit an anomalously large electrorheologic effect when compared with a similar dispersion

Spinach leaf chloroplasts isolated in isotonic media (330 millimolar sorbitol, -1.0 megapascals osmotic potential) had optimum rates of photosynthesis when assayed at -1.0 megapascals. When chloroplasts were isolated in hypertonic media (720 millimolar sorbitol, -2.0 megapascals osmotic potential) the optimum
