Impact of barley selection and mashing profile on the arabinoxylan content and structure in beer
Non-alcoholic and low-alcoholic beers often suffer from inferior foaming quality and lack palate fullness, both of which are positively influenced by arabinoxylan. This study aimed to identify factors during brewing that most affect arabinoxylan content and structure. Analysis showed that malting and mashing had the most significant impact on arabi...
Carboxyalkylated Lignin as a Sustainable Dispersant for Coal Water Slurry
Coal water slurry (CWS) has been considered a cleaner and sustainable alternative to coal. However, the challenging suspension of coal particles in CWS has created a major obstacle to its use in industry. This study presents a novel approach to enhance the stability and rheological properties of coal water slurry (CWS) through the utilization of ca...
Effect of in-plane and out-of-plane bifurcated microfluidic channels on the flow of aggregating red blood cells
The blood flow through our microvascular system is a renowned difficult process to understand because the complex flow behavior of blood is intertwined with the complex geometry it has to flow through. Conventional 2D microfluidics has provided important insights, but progress is hampered by the limitation of 2-D confinement. Here we use selective ...

The effect of coolant additives on the vapour explosion behaviour in melt droplet impingement experiments
Vapour explosions are a known hazard with potentially devastating consequences in several industries. They might occur when a hot liquid comes into direct contact with a cold and volatile liquid. Eutectic PbS-Cu2S droplet impingement experiments were performed to investigate the effect of the coolant composition on the vapour explosion behaviour. T...
Tailoring waterborne coating rheology with hydrophobically modified ethoxylated urethanes (HEURs) : molecular architectu...
A novel investigation of the effects of the hydrophilic and hydrophobic segments of hydrophobically modified ethoxylated urethanes (HEURs) on the rheological properties of their aqueous solutions, latex-based emulsions, and waterborne paints is demonstrated. Different HEUR thickeners were produced by varying the poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) molecula...
