Abstract: Abstract Pumice, a component of pyroclastic soils, undergoes a grain crushing process, even at lower stress level, with the resulting decreasing in shear strength in such material. According to the content already discussed in Esposito… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfa.2016.03.070
Abstract: Wetting behavior of aqueous solutions of four polyoxyalkylated diethylenetriamine (DETA) polymeric surfactants (named A–D) are studied and pH effect is assessed. Surfactants A, B and C have a ‘star-like’ structure differing only by the number… read more here.
