Smith Road Bridge #03.730 - Tech 21Bridge. This seemingly small, inconspicuous bridge near the City of Hamilton / Ross and St. Clair Township lines has turned into the center of national media consideration. The Butler County Engineer's Office has put up a structure built entirely of advanced composite materials originally designed for use in the industry of aerospace - filaments, for example, glass implanted in epoxy. The bridge, renamed the Tech 21 Bridge, was dedicated on 25 of July 1997 and…
CB3 Recycling Go outside, smell that, that 's fresh air but the air we breath ain’t as fresh as it should be. Don’t be trashy recycle. We should be saving the things that make fresh air not using all of before we can replace it.How much would it cost to have recycling places instead of landfills. When we recycle we are making the air smell better and fresher without fresh air it will be hard to breath and no one would want to breath anyways. “While many people believe it is okay to recycle,…
chemicals is used to make male species female. This chemical also causes testicular cancer in the wildlife. Vinyl flooring in houses can cause a similar pattern of effects in the human body and it can increase asthma and allergies. 4. Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) - This is also a low hazard plastic. It is used in bags for newspapers, garbage, bread and frozen food. This plastic doesn’t contain BPA, but it’s also leaching estrogenic chemicals. 5. Polypropylene (PP) - This plastic is used in…
understand the potential impacts and downfalls of microbeads, it is important to understand what makes up microbeads. Microbeads are an engineered microplastic and range from 5 μm to 1 mm in diameter. Some of the most common microplastics are “polyethylene (PE), but can also be made of polypropylene…
addition, a lot of energy and water are required for the production of resources. This increases the dependence on fossil fuels, which are harmful to the environment. It also means that more water is wasted in the manufacture of bottled water. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is the most common type of plastic used in the manufacture of water bottles. It is a petroleum-based compound and it is hard to decompose in the natural environment (Grady and Younos 187). The fact that they cannot…
The “X” that I have selected for this assignment is a Nestle Pure Life water bottle, an item that I often purchase in my local grocery store- Food Basics on Sandhurst Circle in Scarborough. The main reason I chose this product is because the more that I thought about it, I found it fascinating how a human necessity has been turned into a profit driven commodity. Along with trying to understand the reasoning behind the exploitation of water and other injustices this company and product implicate,…
and other 2D materials [12-15]. It has been reported that the mechanically cleaved single and multilayer MoS2 based field effect transistors can be used as NO gas sensor with a detection limit of 0.8 ppm [16]. Flexible MoS2 TFT array on polyethylene terephthalate substrate shows high sensitivity towards NO2 sensing. In addition, functionalization of MoS2 with Pt nanoparticle was found to promote gas sensing activity three times higher with the detection limit of 2 ppb [17]. The MoS2 film…
arranged together which is called an optical cable. The fibre optic cable will also be surrounded by one final layer of protection called the jacket. The jacket can be made out of a number of materials including LSFH polymer, Polybutylene terephthalate and Polyethylene and is a final…

It has little to offer in the way of health benefits, but it still remains a useful element. Chemical Properties Germanium is the thirty-second element in the periodic table represented with the symbol Ge. It is located in the fourth period under group fourteen. Along with other elements like Silicon and Arsenic, Germanium is a metalloid. As a metalloid, Germanium…
