The filler-filler interaction or Payne effect of the silica-filled NR compounds remarkably decreases with increasing silane contents in the OTPS- and MPDTS-grafted
NRs, as shown in figure 2a.
An increase in decomposition temperature is observed for all the grafted
NRs. The thermal stability in descending order as follows: NR-g-P(S-co-MMA), NR-g-PMMA > NR-g-PS > unmodified NR.
"Ten Bank Street is one of the top office buildings in White Plains," says David Hiromura, president of
NRS. "It's ideally located and well maintained."
Two different forms of
NRs (i.e., NR-g-PMMA and unmodified NR) were tried to produce adhesive for particle board.
In September 2003, the Head Start Bureau, in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Administration for Children and Families (ACF), implemented the National Reporting System (
NRS), the first nationwide skills test of over 400,000 4- and 5-year-old children.
The National Reporting System (
NRS) was developed to report the outcomes of English language, literacy and numeracy provision in Australia's vocational education and training and adult and community education sectors, and in labour market programs.
