1. The Effect of Ethylene Glycol and Sodium Borate Solutions on the Adhesion of Epoxy to White Oak and White Pine Samples.
- www.maritime.org
- Adhesion of Epoxy to White Oak and White Pine Samples.
- The search for low toxicity wood preservatives results in the use of products that may affect the adhesion of finishes and glues in wood construction. ... Results indicate that a 75% ethylene glycol/25% sodium borate solution has a marked detrimental effect on the adhesion of epoxy to white oak, and to a lesser extent reduces adhesion of epoxy to white pine. Other concentrations of ethylene glycol and water increase adhesion of epoxy to wood substrates. ...
- The effect of such preservatives on adhesion of finishes and glues is reasonably well known.
- However, other than anecdotal experiences and the assurances of producers, little information documents the effects of ethylene glycol and sodium borate solutions on the adhesion of finishes and glues.
- The Gougeon Brothers lab has adhesion data from seven years of standardized testing of various wood and epoxy combinations. ... Relevant to the instant experiment, in 1991 Gougeon Brothers tested the effects of oil based, alcohol based and water based stains on the adhesion of epoxy coatings. These tests indicated that with oil based stains adhesion can be seriously jeopardized, while adhesion is satisfactory with alcohol and water based stains.
- This paper relates the results of a preliminary test of WEST SYSTEM(R) 105/206 epoxy adhesion to substrates of white oak and white pine treated with solutions containing varying concentrations of ethylene glycol, sodium borate, or both. While the results described below are promising for the use of certain solutions in combination with WEST SYSTEM(R) 105/206 as a bonding or coating agent, further testing is needed to better report definitive effects on adhesion and bonding strength.
- The Pneumatic Adhesion Tensile Testing Instrument (PATTI) manufactured by SEMicro Corporation is the standard instrument used by Gougeon Brothers to determine the adhesion strength of epoxies on various substrates. In addition to internal standardization within Gougeon Brothers labs, the PATTI conforms to the American Society for Testing and Materials 'Standard for Pull-off Strength of Coatings Using Portable Adhesion Testers' ASTM Standard D 4541-85(89). The ASTM standard provides the procedure used by Gougeon Brothers to determine adhesion strength of epoxies on various substrates.
- Lengths of 1"X6" white pine and white oak panels served as the substrate for testing to provide an indication of adhesion in soft wood and hard wood. ...

- Adhesion molecule deficiencies .
- The basic physiology of leucocyte emigration from the intravascular space into the tissues is now known to be dependent on a class of cell surface molecules that have come to be known as adhesion molecules. Many cellcell interactions are dependent on adhesion and signal transduction via the various adhesion molecules, particularly the integrins. The study of the functions of these molecules has been enhanced by the development of blocking and activating monoclonal antibodies, knockout mice, and by the rare "experiments of nature" in the human population, in whom there is absence or dysfunction of one of the adhesion molecules. This review describes these leucocyte adhesion defects and discusses how they have provided important insights into the function of these molecules. ...

- Regulators of Neurite Outgrowth: Role of Cell Adhesion Molecules .
- Based on this classification, we briefly describe selected positive, negative, and guiding signaling cues focusing on the role of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs). CAMs not only regulate cell-cell and cell-ECM adhesion "mechanically," they also trigger intracellular signaling cascades launching neurite outgrowth. Here, we describe the structure, function, and signaling of three key CAMs found in the nervous system: N-cadherin and two Ig-CAMs, L1 and the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM. ...

- This adhesion to FNX 9-10 was shown to be mediated by v3 integrin, was inhibited by RGD peptides and was strongly reduced in proteins mutated within the RGD site. As antibodies against v3 integrin had no effects on cell adhesion to purified TN-X, we suggest that the RGD sequence is masked in intact TN-X. ... Although the existence of other cell interaction sites is likely in this huge molecule, these similar patterns of adhesion and inhibition suggest that the fibrinogen domain might be a dominant site in the whole molecule. ...

- They then adhere to the endothelium, a process most likely involving neutrophil-endothelial cell adhesion molecules. ... Neutrophil-mediated injury to endothelial cells can occur during adhesion or emigration, although both these processes can occur in the absence of any discernible endothelial cell injury. ...
- 7 8 9 10 11 12 Second, the initial response of neutrophils within the systemic postcapillary venules is their rolling along the endothelial cells, a process that is mediated by members of the selectin family of adhesion molecules. ...
- 32 Initial hypotheses focused on understanding the mechanisms of this sequestration examined the role of adhesion molecules. However, inhibition of either selectins or the CD11/CD18 adhesion complex did not prevent the initial sequestration induced by complement fragments,31 33 34 and the circulating neutrophil counts decreased to similar values within 2 min of infusion of complement fragments (Fig 1). In contrast, adhesion molecules, particularly L-selectin and CD11/CD18, were required to maintain the sequestered neutrophils within the microvasculature. ... Taken together, these data demonstrate that recognized adhesion molecules are not required for the immediate sequestration of neutrophils within the pulmonary capillary bed, but they are required to maintain the sequestered cells within the bed for > 4 to 5 min. ...
- 29 These studies suggested that this stiffening and decreased deformability of neutrophils were important in early events, but it lasted only a short period of time, facilitating adhesion and migration at later times in the continued presence of inflammatory mediators. ...
- Neutrophil Adhesion and Migration.
- 11 12 This process of adhesion and migration has been termed emigration. ...
- In contrast to neutrophil emigration in the systemic postcapillary venules where CD11/CD18 is almost always required, neutrophil emigration can occur within the distal lung parenchyma through one of two adhesion pathways, one that requires the CD11/CD18 complex and one that does not. ...
- These high circulating values made predicting the number of neutrophils expected to migrate in the absence of an adhesion defect difficult, if not impossible. ...
- These studies indicate that both the CD11/CD18-independent pathway of neutrophil emigration and the small number of neutrophils that emigrate when primarily CD18-dependent pathways are utilized both occur through adhesion pathways that do not require any region of the CD11/CD18 molecules. ...
- Current work in our laboratory has focused on two questions: what determines which adhesion system is utilized for emigration and what adhesion molecules mediate CD18-independent emigration in the lungs. To begin to identify factors that determine which adhesion system will be utilized, the messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), an important ligand for the CD11/CD18 adhesion complex, was examined during CD11/CD18-dependent and -independent pneumonias. ...
