Tapai is one of the most popular traditional desserts in Malaysia and other Asian countries. Traditionally, tapai is wrapped in a rubber leaf to enhance the smell and increase its palatability. The study focused on identifying the yeasts present before and after the production of glutinous rice tapai wrapped in different rubber leaves clones, namely RRIM 2025, RRIM 2002, PB 260 and PB 350. The identification of the yeast was carried out using API 20C AUX test strips for all rubber leaves clones, glutinous rice tapai wrapped in RRIM 2025, RRIM 2002, PB 260, PB 350 and in a container (control). The results showed that Crytococcus laurentii, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa 2, Candida famata, Rhodotorula minuta were present in rubber leaf clones. While the yeasts that had been identified in tapai wrapped in rubber leaf were Candida guilliermondii, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa 2, Candida parapsilosis and Trichosporon mucoides and only C. guilliermondii was found in the container. The physical properties of the tapai that are wrapped in rubber leaves have a difference in texture, pH value and total soluble solids content compared to the control sample. The tapai sample wrapped in RRIM 2025 and RRIM 2002 had a high total soluble solid content of 45.8±0.14% and 45.78±0.16% °Bx, respectively. Meanwhile, the control sample has the highest pH value and the hardest rice kernels, which were 4.71±0.05 and 218.19±25.39 N, respectively. The results showed that the different yeasts present in the rubber leaf may cause changes in the physical properties of glutinous rice tapai.

Abstract The vital role played by rubber in modern civilization is due in part to the physical properties displayed by soft vulcanized rubber in service and in part to the characteristics of unvulcanized milled rubber which make it amenable to manufacturing operations. Vulcanization of rubber is a change in condition usually induced by heating it with sulfur, and is best defined by contrasting the difference in physical properties: To illustrate, compare a mill-mixed composition before and after vulcanization. Before vulcanization it is easily pulled apart and, if considerably extended, shows little tendency to retract, although, under impact, the recovery or rebound is considerable. If heated it becomes even softer and more plastic, and can easily be formed into any desired shape. If cooled to 0° C or somewhat lower, it becomes stiff and boardy. It is readily soluble in hydrocarbon solvents. When two fresh surfaces are pressed together, they coalesce and become practically integral. This tack, as it is called, is valuable in manufacturing operations. After vulcanization, rubber is tough and strong and, after even a slow distortion, returns rapidly to its original shape. It has little tendency to flow and is devoid of tack. It swells but does not dissolve in hydrocarbon solvents. These characteristics change very little from −40° to well above 100° C.

Preliminary results are reported of field studies 1955-56 by the U.S. Air Force Cambridge Research Center, the Hydrographic Office and SIPRE on the general physical properties of sea ice; methods of measurement are described. Characteristics of sea water during the freezing period are outlined: formation, structure, and salinity of the initial ice cover, formation and characteristics of infiltrated snow-ice, growth of the ice and influencing factors, density of the ice at various periods, and crack formation are discussed. Data on the salinity of sea ice formed during during wave action and that of sheet-ice, hourly averages of air and ice temperatures at various levels, snow and slush density and thickness, observed slush levels and theoretical water levels are shown. Salinity of ice before and after the slush layer froze, and that of deteriorating ice , salinity of ice vs. ice thickness, thickness of ice versus degree-days, the density of the ice, and measured ice densities vs. theoretical density of air-free sea ice at -15 C are figured and discussed. The orientation of sea ice c-axes and of infiltrated snow-ice c-axes are diagrammed.--From SIPRE.

In order to explore the change laws of physical properties and pore throat radius of reservoir both before and after water flooding to guide the oilfield in-depth fluid diversion, the reservoir properties are analyzed on the basis of core data of early exploratory well and inspection well in the middle and later stages of oilfield development. The theory of reservoir geology and development geology is used to study the change laws of reservoir properties both before and after water flooding in May 20th Development Area of Liaohe oilfield. The research result indicates that reservoir physical properties and pore throat radius have changed in the different period and different microfacies types of sand body [1-3].The permeability is changed far outweigh porosity in the physical properties of reservoir. And with the increase of time, the biggest change is the porosity and permeability of distributary channel, the next are margin of channels, mouth bar. The thin layer of channels and distal bar of physical properties have changed lesser or not. The pore throat radius has declined following distributary channel, mouth bar, thin layer of channels and distal bar in the sedimentary microfacies [4-5].The study results are helpful for the establishment of production measures at the later stage of oilfield development.

For investigating effect of soft finish on the handle of polyester fabric, the study shows physical properties on polyester fabric before and after finishing, then making some comparison base on the test results. KES-F (Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabric) system was used in the test. The study shows that the fabric samples exhibit noticeable improvement on wearable property after soft finish.

Specimens of polychloroprene before and after light treatment have been examined by X -ray methods. There is no change in the crystalline structure, although there are differences in the physical properties ascribed to cross-linking of the long-chain molecules. The unit cell is possibly ortho­rhombic: a = 8·90 A , b = 4·70 A, c = 12·21 A, and contains four chloroprene (C 4 H 5 Cl) units.

Two different dye samples Fast Green and Black T were subjected for extracting their ions using a novel methodology based on microfluidics using a membrane without Treatment and membrane coated with copper nanoparticles, which exploits the advantages of miniaturization for sample introduction and extraction of a range of ions through a membrane before and after treatment. The membrane coated with Cu nanoparticles increases the extracting efficiency to 96.3 and 91.62 for Fastgreen membrane and Black T membrane respectively. This due to the new and good physical properties of the membrane surface after coating with nanoparticles.
