Melamine Foam

...stains and grimes, the Magic Eraser was introduce in 2003 by Proctor and Gamble. Over the years it has endured great success. In this assignment, I will use a reliable source and an unreliable source to explain the key ingredient that makes this product work so well, this ingredient is melamine foam. Melamine foam is manufactured in Germany and is used as an insulation for pipes and ductwork. Melamine foam is also used as soundproof for studios and auditoriums. Melamine foam isn’t 100% fire proof, but has a very low smoke and fire properties, thus making it a non-hazardous material. I chose this topic as I have small children who like to use my walls as their canvas. They like to use crayons, pens, pencils mostly for their work. If their art work is of something that they were really proud of, I will take a picture of their work with them standing next to it so we can reflect back on that moment. However, if it’s just scribble, well, then this is where the magic eraser comes in handy. I can wipe the wall clean and one could never tell that my small children performed any kind of art work on the wall. With that, the first resource I chose on the magic eraser and the material melamine foam that its made of was from of course Wikipedia. I like to use Wikipedia for a quick reference source, however for academics purpose, is unreliable. Anyone can edit the information in Wikipedia without knowing the true facts on a topic, thus making its source unreliable. For my next source...

Firewire Surfboards

...FireWire Surfboards Firewire Surfboards was created in the year 2005 by a group of colleges who happen to be friends. They all wanted to make a new kind of surfboards for the average person that wanted to go out and enjoy the waves. Firewire makes the claim that its surfboards are stronger, lighter and more flexible than any of its based competition’s surfboards. In order to keep up with the competition Firewire decided to start making custom surfboards instead of just their usual or original sizes. Along with making custom surfboards Firewire is doing other things in order to stay ahead of their competition. Channel Islands surfboards seems to be the major competitor of Firewire surfboards. However, it's surfboards aren't price efficient from what I’ve read, and doesn’t seem to come close to offering the flexibility and maneuverability that Firewires does. Firewire competitors mostly uses time dated technology and production that is thought to be harmful to the environment. Most “surfers prefer their gear old school,” that’s from what I’ve gathered, and the companies that have been established for decades had the upper hand on supplying this demand of the surf market. It also didn’t help that many of the surfboard manufactures had signed professional surfers and thousands of loyal customers that felt the technology “represented a real threat to the entrenched surfboard” companies that they had grown accustomed to. Firewire’s entrepreneurial team should have...

...with the help of a baster. Basting prevents foods from drying out. Blanch – To submerge foods in boiling water for just a few seconds, remove from the water, and refresh under cold water to stop the cooking process. Blanching is a gentle form of cooking used to loosen skins, firm flesh, and heighten color and flavor.  Boil – To heat water until bubbling vigorously and also to cook food in water that is bubbling vigorously. Most often, foods should be poached instead of boiled, because boiling tends to dry out and break down food too much. See definition below for poaching. Braise – To cook in a small amount of liquid (also called stewing or pot roasting), rather than being submerged in liquid, as in boiling/poaching. Braising usually concentrates the food’s flavor in the surrounding liquid for the purpose of making a sauce or coating. Broil – To cook close to a direct heat source, such as a gas flame or an electric coil. Broiling cooks food in just a couple minutes with a nice browned exterior (especially good for tender steaks). Caramelize – To gently brown natural sugars and other compounds in foot over low heat to produce a more intense flavor. Aromatic vegetables, especially carrots and onions, and stew meats are often caramelized in a small amount...

Centrifugation

...Introduction: Centrifugation is a process used to separate or concentrate materials suspended in a liquid medium. The theoretical basis of this technique is the effect of gravity on particles in suspension. Two particles of different masses will settle in a tube at different rates in response to gravity. The centrifugal force generated is proportional to the rotation rate of the rotor and the distance between the rotor centre and the centrifuge tube. There are three general classes of centrifugation which is low speed, up to about 5000rpm, high speed machines of up to about 25000rpm and ultracentrifuges which will turn at up to 100000rpm. Another form of centrifuge in laboratories is microcentrifuge. It is very common and simple machine used with 0.5 or 1.5ml disposable plastic tubes. Most of these machines generate between 10000 and 13000rpm. Many microcentrifuges only have settings for speed (rpm), not relative centrifugal force (rcf). Consequently, a formula for conversion is required to ensure that the appropriate setting is used in an experiment. The relationship between rpm and rcf is as follow, g=1.118 x 10ˆ-5 rs² where g is the relative centrifugal force, r is the radius of the rotor in centimeters and s is the speed of centrifuge in rpm. Objective: 1. To determine the relationship of speed of centrifugation with the coagulation of milk which separate from the mixture. 2. To separate coagulated milk from the mixture of fresh milk and acetic acid by centrifugation...

RICHARD O. MASON ‘‘Houston We Have a Problem.’’ A Message Never Sent or Received. On February 1, 2003, the Space Shuttle Columbia, on its way to its landing site in Florida, blew apart in the skies of East Texas. Its seven-member crew perished. The $2 billion ship was lost; some destruction occurred on the ground, and considerable cost was incurred to recover debris scattered over several states. The disaster sounded an eerie echo from the past. Seventeen years earlier the shuttle Challenger exploded 73 seconds into flight due to an O-ring malfunction. All seven crewmembers were also lost. And, about 11 years before that, the cabin of Apollo 1 burst into flames on its pad. Three crewmembers were killed. Within a day, as NASA policy requires, an internal investigation team of six ex officio members was formed. Harold Gehman Jr., a retired admiral who was NATO supreme allied commander in Europe, was appointed to chair it. A veteran of several military investigations, including the bombing of the U.S. Cole, Gehman, in an initially unpopular move, broadened the inquiry to include the agency’s organization, history and culture. Sean O’Keefe, NASA’s administrator, was incensed that the investigation...

Consumer Satisfaction of Godrej Refrigerator

...Chapter I * Introduction to the study * Objective of the study * Need of the study * Significance of the study * Limitations * Review of literature Introduction to the study. Godrej pioneered the refrigerator industry in India in 1958 – in fact, it was the first Indian company to manufacture refrigerators. Over the next few decades, the company garnered a lion's share of the market on the back of its demonstrable reliability and performance. Supported by a philosophy of innovation, Godrej launched refrigerators with Poly Urethane Foam (PUF) in 1989, which went on to become an industry benchmark. Market expansion and competition from foreign brands in the 1990s only helped to invigorate it and once again brought to the fore its pioneering spirit. Godrej Refrigerators met these challenges with its own product development. In 1996, it unveiled the first-of-its kind refrigerator model in India, the 260-litre deep door refrigerator; it followed this in 1998 with the roll out of a 400-litre refrigerator in the frost-free range.This was, at the time, the largest refrigerator ever to be manufactured in India. Godrej raised the bar yet again in 2001 with the launch of the all-new Pentacool range. With its 5-side cooling, these refrigerators were generations ahead of several brands in technology. The spate of innovations continued with the launch of Godrej Eon in 2006 – once again setting new benchmarks in the cooling space. Having more than held its...
