Polycarbonate

The hardness score of these tankish-bags conveniently crosses 80% in terms of durability scores. The featherweight polycarbonate construction ensures that you have the maximum durability in the bag at the minimum weight. That is, what makes Samsonite good at its thing! Stylish Design The looks and feels are another important thing that we tourists consider when we are travelling…

the inside, a face mask made of one or more plastic-coated metal bars, and a chinstrap.(Past Time Sports: History of the Football Helmet.) Each position has a different type of face mask to balance protection and visibility, and some players add polycarbonate visors to their helmets, which are used to protect their eyes from glare and impacts.(Past Time Sports: History of the Football Helmet.) New helmets have been added to the league to prevent concussions.(Past Time Sports: History of the…

Around 13% of Torontonians are drinking water with excess amount of lead in it. This lead is supposedly to come from the aging pips either from the pipelines of…

sediment for one hour in a conical urine flask after collection. The sediment is then put into a centrifuge tube and spun for two minutes at 2000 g. The sediment is then observed under low magnification for the presence of ova. Filtration - A polycarbonate or nylon fibre filter (12-20 μm pore size) is placed in a filter holder. The urine sample is filled into a syringe and attached the filter holder whereby the urine is expeled. The filter is removed with forceps and placed on a microscopic…

Performing a FlowMAP run FlowMAP technology is complex and takes long time and effort to run, from the preparation of the proteins to the cleaning of the platform. The preparation of a run starts by coating a disposable microfluidics cartridge of 192 polycarbonate tubes, see FlowMAP platform and cartridge in Figure 3-1. These tubes simulate capillaries and are coated with a matrix of randomly distributed proteins. The run starts by vacuuming a sample of venous blood to the cartridge. The…

This means it will be a lot more likely you will need to get parts fixed or replaced. Adversely, Apple sets a much higher standard of quality for their computers. Macs are designed to last; using quality materials like aluminum, glass, and rugged polycarbonate that are paired with “powerful processors, advanced graphics, and fast memory” (Sahoo). In an article from The Washington Post, it describes how Macs are compatible with almost any PC file using integrated Intel chips, also saying that Mac…

Summer isn't the best time of year for running. The main reason is the heat. A runner builds up a lot of internal heat but isn't moving fast enough to benefit much from the cooling effects of a good wind stream as a bicyclist would. Beyond the problem of staying cool, there are a lot of other considerations, especially when running long distances. Everything should be as optimized as possible. This includes your gear, such as your shoes and sunglasses. Unfortunately, sunglasses don't always get…

This wouldn’t be too dramatic, if it wasn’t for the stairs vibrating in time with the group’s march, causing an extremely loud sub-bass oscillation to fill the entire stairwell, reminiscent of the wibble wobble modes caused by shaking a sheet of polycarbonate only much lower and richer. This sub-bass oscillation was almost deafening, and was probably one of the most memorable moments of the soundwalk, as well as a sound I never expected to…

When I initially think about art as entertainment, I don’t imagine art in a gallery but rather music or television shows. Though I was recently exposed to a different form of art as entertainment, that being the work of Carsten Holler. Holler’s work brought a new meaning to the phrase “art as entertainment” for me with pieces such as Test Site and Amusement Park, both of which are interactive installations visitors can both view and experience if they so choose. For this reason, “the work must…

NASCAR is one of the world’s most popular sports attracting millions of viewers every Sunday to watch their favorite drivers race hundreds of miles across the race track at intense speeds. Many people who love to tune in and watch the sport are not aware of the chemistry behind NASCAR. For the cars to be able to operate the way they do, a lot has to go into building them. Each track that is raced on brings different challenges to the race team whose job is trying to get their car to be the…
