This study is to introduce waste collagen into an unfigured islands-in-sea microfiber nonwoven material, replacing the polyurethane impregnation section of the traditional manufacturing process with the collagen impregnation process. The modified collagen was first impregnated in polyamide/lowdensity polyethylene (PA/LDPE) fiber nonwoven to form a film. Then the low-density polyethylene component was extracted and dissolved in toluene, resulting in a collagen-based microfiber nonwoven substrate. Waste collagen was first modified to introduce CC into the molecular chain to obtain vinyl collagen (CMA), and then the following film formation conditions for CMA were studied: 73% degree of substitution (DS), 3 h cross-linking time, and 0.005−0.01 wt % initiator concentration. Then, the preparation of CMA-PA/LDPE and toluene extraction processes were investigated. The optimum toluene extraction conditions were obtained as an extraction temperature of 85 °C and an extraction time of 110 min. The properties of the nonwoven materials were compared before (CMA-PA/LDPE) and after (PA-CMA) extraction. It was found that the homogeneity, tensile strength, and static moisture permeability of the PA-CMA materials prepared by CMA with 50 and 73% DS were all superior to those of PA/ LDPE. In particular, the static moisture permeability of PA-CMA (691.6 mg/10 cm 2 •24 h) increased by 36.2% compared to the microfiber synthetic leather substrate currently in the market. Using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the continuity of a film of PA-CMA with 73% DS was observed to be better and the fibers were differentiated and relatively tighter fiber-to-fiber gap. The studied novel green process can eliminate the large amount of dimethylformamide (DMF) pollution caused by the current solventbased polyurethane impregnation process.
Abstract. This study inquires into the effect of multimodality on ESP listening comprehension by examining the students' English summaries of the audiovisual recording material that comprises 51 semantic units. The study objects are 120 randomly chosen pilot cadets, who are split evenly into 4 groups: 1 control group and 3 test groups. For each group, the material is presented three times but with a different combination of multimodal. Then by using SPSS (17.0), single factor ANOVA and Post Hoc multiple tests are applied to analyze the collected data so as to find out effects of multimodality on ESP listening teaching. The study indicates that proper use of multimodality can significantly improve students' listening comprehension and visual modality has to correspond to audio modality information in order to produce desired effects. The study also demonstrates that target language subtitles are more helpful than native ones for listening comprehension.
In the supply chain system consisting of multiple suppliers and multiple retailers, in order to realize supply chain coordination, we studied the ordering decision under the quantity flexibility contract with competition between both sides. On the one hand, from the perspective of suppliers, a satisfactory production of goods for each supplier was obtained by means of a kind of interactive programmer step method. On the other hand, from the perspective of retailers, because each supplier holds a different preference attitude for different retailers, we sort retailers as preference in application of a group decision sequencing method of Markov chain. The optimal order quantity of goods for each retailer was obtained at the same time and we prove that it is Pareto optimal. Finally, we give a numerical example.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
