36000 – 36006 Indigo 36000 – 36006 Indigo Indigo is an organic blackish blue pigment. Natural indigo was the only source of the dye until the late 19th century. Today indigo is also produced synthetically and available in various shades. A variety of plants, such as Indigofera species or Isatis tinctoria, provide the indigo dye. Indigofera species can be found all over the world. The dye is obtained from the processing of the plant's leaves. The leaves are soaked in water and fermented in order to convert the glycoside indican naturally present in the plant to the blue dye idigotin. The precipitate is mixed with a strong base such as lye, pressed into cakes, dried, and powdered. The powder is then mixed with various other substances to produce different shades of blue and purple. Indigo is among the oldest dyes to be used for textile dyeing. For centuries Indigo was used in many Asian countries, also in Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, Peru and Africa. The Romans used indigo as a pigment for painting and for medicinal and cosmetic purposes. It was a luxury item imported to the Mediterranean from India by Arab merchants. Indigo has been used in traditional textile dying throughout West Africa. From the Tuareg nomads of the Sahara to Cameroon, clothes dyed with indigo signified wealth. Indigo is insoluble in water and alcohol. 36000 Natural Indigo, powder, from India 36002 Natural Indigo, pieces 36003 Indigo made of woad 36005 Indigo, pale blue, precipitated with aluminium hydroxide 36006 Indigo, red violet, precipitated with aluminium hydroxide Page 1 of 1 Kremer Pigmente GmbH & Co.

  • Indigo Fructose Dye Vat
    Kraftkolour Pty Ltd Factory 2, 99 Heyington Ave THOMASTOWN Vic 3074 Tel: 1300 720 493 Web: Kraftkolour.net.au Indigo Fructose Dye Vat The fructose indigo vat was developed by Michel Garcia. The addition of the fructose sugar acts as a reducing agent to the Indigo. The sugar removes one of the oxygen molecules from the indigo making it soluble in water. The addition of the Calcium Hydroxide (slaked or hydrated lime) changes the pH from an acid to a base. The proper pH to get good colour on wool should be about +9 and for cotton and cellulose +10. When the yarn or fabric is dipped into the indigo dye vat, it turns a green colour. When the yarn is raised into the air, the oxygen molecules from the air, bind with the indigo and turn the green into blue. To get darker and more intense blues, the yarn needs to be dipped into the indigo vat and raised into the air to oxidize several times. The colour builds up onto the yarn or cloth in layers. Keep dipping and airing out the yarn until the desired level of colour is achieved. An Indigo vat can be re-used and kept alive for several weeks until all of the indigo has been exhausted. If the Vat still has indigo but has turned blue, reheat the Vat to 50 deg C. Check the pH. Add about a teaspoon of fructose crystals and wait 15-30 minutes. The Vat should turn green. If it is still blue add some Calcium Hydroxide.

  • Roadmap of Solid-State Lithium-Organic Batteries Toward 500 Wh Kg−1 † † Lihong Zhao, Alae Eddine Lakraychi, Zhaoyang Chen, Yanliang Liang, and Yan Yao*
    Focus Review http://pubs.acs.org/journal/aelccp Roadmap of Solid-State Lithium-Organic Batteries toward 500 Wh kg−1 † † Lihong Zhao, Alae Eddine Lakraychi, Zhaoyang Chen, Yanliang Liang, and Yan Yao* Cite This: ACS Energy Lett. 2021, 6, 3287−3306 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Over the past few years, solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) have attracted tremendous attention due to their credible promise toward high-energy batteries. In parallel, organic battery electrode materials (OBEMs) are gaining momentum as strong candidates thanks to their lower environmental footprint, flexibility in molecular design and high energy metrics. Integration of the two constitutes a potential synergy to enable energy-dense solid- state batteries (SSBs) with high safety, low cost, and long-term sustainability. In this Review, we present the technological feasibility of combining OBEMs with SSEs along with the possible cell configurations that may result from this peculiar combination. We provide an overview of organic SSBs and discuss their main challenges. We analyze the performance-limiting factors and the critical cell design parameters governing cell-level specific energy and energy density. Lastly, we propose guidelines to achieve 500 Wh kg−1 cell-level specific energy with solid-state Li−organic batteries.

  • Three Shades of Blue: Air Force Culture and Leadership
    Three Shades of Blue: Air Force Culture and Leadership Bernadette Pothan Submitted in fulfilment of the requirement of the degree of Master of Philosophy University College, the University of New South Wales 2013 Three Shades of Blue: Air Force Culture and Leadership ABSTRACT The study explores unconstructive ideas of power in the military. In the thesis doctrine is seen to promote ideas of power over others under cover of the language of leadership. The study explains how Australian Defence Doctrine Publication 00.6: Leadership in the Australian Defence Force confuses ideas of command and leadership, and asserts that in doctrine unconstructive ideas of power have engulfed ideas of leadership. More than published text, doctrine is understood to describe ideas which have pervasive cultural meaning and impact. The thesis explores how acculturated myths of power are causally relevant to air accidents, decayed maintenance standards, and the prejudice borne by women in the Service. The so- called ‘warrior culture’ is interrogated as the rationalisation of unconstructive power and the aggregated risk which follows on its heels. The focus of the study is narrowed to the Royal New Zealand Air Force, and explicit attention is devoted to the ‘characters’ which give life to unhelpful elements of the ‘warrior culture’. The thesis unpacks the ‘characters’ (‘Aircrew’, ‘Maintenance Crew’, and ‘Support Crew’) and explores how unconstructive ideas of power are discernable in Air Force culture. ‘Aircrew’ are seen to infuse and dominate every aspect of Air Force life. ‘Maintenance Crew’ is a symbol for the Air Force maintenance culture, revealing the controlling influence and the practical repercussions of the ‘Aircrew’ myth.

  • Color Matters
    Color Matters Color plays a vitally important role in the world in which we live. Color can sway thinking, change actions, and cause reactions. It can irritate or soothe your eyes, raise your blood pressure or suppress your appetite. When used in the right ways, color can even save on energy consumption. As a powerful form of communication, color is irreplaceable. Red means "stop" and green means "go." Traffic lights send this universal message. Likewise, the colors used for a product, web site, business card, or logo cause powerful reactions. Color Matters! Basic Color Theory Color theory encompasses a multitude of definitions, concepts and design applications. There are enough to fill several encyclopedias. However, there are basic categories of color theory. They are the color wheel and the color harmony. Color theories create a logical structure for color. For example, if we have an assortment of fruits and vegetables, we can organize them by color and place them on a circle that shows the colors in relation to each other. The Color Wheel A color wheel is traditional in the field of art. Sir Isaac Newton developed the first color wheel in 1666. Since then, scientists and artists have studied a number of variations of this concept. Different opinions of one format of color wheel over another sparks debate. In reality, any color wheel which is logically arranged has merit. 1 The definitions of colors are based on the color wheel. There are primary colors, secondary colors, and tertiary colors. Primary Colors: Red, yellow and blue o In traditional color theory, primary colors are the 3 colors that cannot be mixed or formed by any combination of other colors.

The microalga was exposed to different concentrations of the effluent obtained by diluting the dye effluent from 100 to 175 times in bold basal medium (BBM). The growth rate of the microalga decreased as indigo dye effluent concentration increased (p <0.05). The EC50 was found to be 166 dilution factor of the effluent. Chlorophyll a, cell density and dry weight production as biomarkers were negatively affected by high indigo dye effluent concentration, their levels were higher at low effluent concentrations (p <0.05). Changes in coenobia size significantly correlated with the dye effluent concentration. A shift from large to small coenobia with increasing indigo dye effluent concentration was obtained. We conclude that even at low concentrations; effluents from textile industrial processes that use indigo dye are capable of significantly reducing the growth and biomass production, in addition to altering the morphological characteristics of the freshwater microalga S.
