Experimental study of kinetics of dissolution of hypso anhydrites at 25 ᵒC made it possible to formulate model of the process in the form of a balance equation for the kinetics of dissolution of gypsum, anhydrite (first and second orders, respectively) and kinetics of precipitation of gypsum (second order). The processing of the experimental data were carried out on the basis of the solution of the Riccati equation. When taking into account the common-ion effect on the solubility of gypsum and anhydrite, the calculated values turned out to be more comparable with the experimental ones.

The results of experimental studies of kinetics of spreading processes of epoxy binders on the surface of a carbon (cloth) tape depending on a reinforcement pattern are presented. A copper coating of 100 nm thickness was deposited on reinforced materials by magnetron sputtering. It has been found out that a metal coating on the surface of a carbon tape and cloth leads to a considerable increase in the rate of spreading processes only for the laying-out pattern 0°, when binder movement in capillaries is provided. The deposition of a copper coating on the surface of the carbon tape and cloth has considerably the bigger influence on kinetics of the spreading processes, increasing it by 35%.

Cooling has been used for the preservation of fresh produce such as fruit and vegetables due to its low cost and high effectiveness in maintaining the product quality. Recently, several researchers have conducted theoretical and experimental studies for obtaining the kinetics of cooling and cooling time for fruits with different geometries. Present work, therefore, aims to simulate the cooling of fruits with particular reference to banana, orange, strawberry and Tahiti lemon. The transient heat conduction equation and its analytical solution using Galerkin based integral method are presented. It has been found that the strawberry has lower dimensionless cooling time compared with time required to cool other fruits, which is due to its higher surface area/volume ratio value. In orange and lemon the temperature distribution was found to be homogeneous in the angular direction, while in banana and strawberry it was two-dimensional due to shape of the fruits.

The article presents the results of experimental studies to determine the relationship between the electrolysis modes and the properties of electroplating coatings for mathematical modeling of the dynamics of the electrolytic process (MDEP), described by a system of ordinary differential equations due to the complex relationship of the kinetics of chemical reactions, hydrodynamics and mass transfer in the electrolyte flow, the kinematics of electrode plates, and the influence of the electric field of the "anode-cathode" pair on all these processes. At the same time, the experimental base was a series of full-scale experiments to restore the seats of the root supports of cylinder blocks with electroplated coatings. The final result of the research is the procedure for constructing an optimal resource-saving mode of electroplating, which is a zinc-iron alloy.

Рассмотрена кинетика сушки послеспиртовой барды при 60°С. Объектом исследований была модельная смесь, состоящая из воды, белков, жиров и растворимых углеводов. Представлены результаты исследований кинетики испарения воды и смесей вода–масло, вода–белок, вода–сахар, вода–масло–белок–сахар, помещенных в чашку Петри. Процесс испарения в изотермических условиях протекал в сушильном шкафу Memmert. Установлено, что добавление вещества в воду снижает скорость испарения воды в периоде постоянной скорости сушки, в периоде падающей скорости сушки продолжительность испарения возрастает. По результатам кинетики сушки модельных смесей можно определять коэффициенты активности компонентов и проводить исследование процесса сушки реальных смесей при проектировании сушилок. The kinetics of drying of the distillery dregs at 60°C is considered. The model mixture containing water, proteins, oils and soluble carbohydrates was the object of research. The results of experimental studies of the kinetics of evaporation of water and mixtures of water-oil, water-protein, water-sugar, water-oil-protein-sugar, placed in a Petri dish, are presented. Evaporation under isothermal conditions was carried out in a Memmert drying cabinet. It is established that the addition of the substance into the water reduces the evaporation rate of water in the period of constant drying speed, the duration of evaporation in the period of falling drying speed increases. According to the results of the kinetics of drying model mixtures, it is possible to determine the activity coefficients of the components and conduct a study of the drying process of real mixtures in the design of dryers.

Context. Several chemical networks have been developed to study warm (exo)planetary atmospheres. The kinetics of the reactions related to the methanol chemistry included in these schemes have been questioned. Aims. The goal of this paper is to update the methanol chemistry for such chemical networks based on recent publications in the combustion literature. We also aim to study the consequences of this update on the atmospheric compositions of (exo)planetary atmospheres and brown dwarfs. Methods. We performed an extensive review of combustion experimental studies and revisited the sub-mechanism describing methanol combustion in a scheme published in 2012. The updated scheme involves 108 species linked by a total of 1906 reactions. We then applied our 1D kinetic model with this new scheme to the case studies HD 209458b, HD 189733b, GJ 436b, GJ 1214b, ULAS J1335+11, Uranus, and Neptune; we compared these results with those obtained with the former scheme. Results. The update of the scheme has a negligible impact on the atmospheres of hot Jupiters. However, the atmospheric composition of warm Neptunes and brown dwarfs is modified sufficiently to impact observational spectra in the wavelength range in which James Webb Space Telescope will operate. Concerning Uranus and Neptune, the update of the chemical scheme modifies the abundance of CO and thus impacts the deep oxygen abundance required to reproduce the observational data. For future 3D kinetics models, we also derived a reduced scheme containing 44 species and 582 reactions. Conclusions. Chemical schemes should be regularly updated to maintain a high level of reliability on the results of kinetic models and be able to improve our knowledge of planetary formation.

Abstract Background: Experimental studies suggest that proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is an important regulator of LDL metabolism because of its ability to facilitate degradation of the LDL receptor. We investigated the association between plasma PCSK9 concentration and LDL apolipoprotein B-100 (apo B-100) metabolism in men with a wide range of body mass index values. Methods: We used GC-MS to study the kinetics of LDL apo B-100 after intravenous administration of deuterated leucine and analyzed the data by compartmental modeling. The plasma PCSK9 concentration was measured by ELISA. Results: Univariate regression analysis revealed the plasma PCSK9 concentration to be significantly and positively correlated with cholesterol (r = 0.543; P = 0.011), LDL cholesterol (r = 0.543; P = 0.011), apo B-100 (r = 0.548; P = 0.010), and LDL apo B-100 concentrations (r = 0.514; P = 0.023), and inversely correlated with the LDL apo B-100 fractional catabolic rate (FCR) (r = −0.456; P = 0.038). The association between plasma PCSK9 concentration and the LDL apo B-100 FCR remained statistically significant after adjusting for age, obesity, plasma insulin, homeostasis model assessment score, and dietary energy; however, this association had borderline significance after adjusting for plasma lathosterol. Conclusions: In men, variation in plasma PCSK9 concentration influences the catabolism of LDL apo B-100. This finding appears to be independent of obesity, insulin resistance, energy intake, and age.

This paper reports the results of experimental research of the effect of strain-restriction conditions on the structure and properties of sulfoaluminate expanding cementitious materials. Theoretical analysis of the development of pattern formation processes is performed by applying the developed rheological model, illustrating features of the kinetics of structure-forming processes according to the ratio of the potential index of extension with linear, flat and volumetric limitation of deformations of the extension. The results show that rheological model adequately correlates with the results of experimental studies and can be described mathematically. Found that with the volume limitation of deformations arising when mixing crystallographic phases with high density and strength, the pore structure of the cement stone contains mainly gel pores. This is the main prerequisite for obtaining a dense, high-strength and durable structure of cement stone and concrete on its basis.
