...our research. The polymers under study are water soluble or amphiphilic (i.e. containing both water soluble and insoluble structural units), polyelectrolytes (electrically charged polymers) and thermally responsive polymers. Thermally responsive polymers are ones which dissolve in water around room temperature...
Heavy goods vehicles on Norwegian roads will soon be checked and weighed automatically – while on the road. Advanced sensors installed in the road surface, combined with number plate recognition systems, will enable the detection of far more incorrectly loaded trailers than is the case today. This lies...
