Untersuchung zur Anwendung des Modells "Chemical Leasing" im Vertrieb von Kunststoffgranulat

Der Themenschwerpunkt dieser Arbeit ist das Chemical Leasing. Es wird untersucht, ob dieses Geschäftsmodell auch für den Vertrieb von Kunststoffgranulat genutzt werden kann. Der Fokus liegt auf dem Kunststoff Polypropylen (PP). Der Einsatz des Geschäftsmodell Chemical Leasing wird anhand der Kriterien: Potential des Materials, Wichtigkeit des Prozessschritts, Grad der Spezialisierung und der Verfügbarkeit von geeigneten Partnern vollzogen. Dabeiwird insbesondere aus der Sicht des Rohstoffherstellers berichtet. In dem Verarbeitungsschritt „Compoundieren“ werden bei dem Rohstoffhersteller modifizierte Polypropylene hergestellt. Ist es durch die Compoundveredelung möglich das Potential des Polypropylen zu ändern? Da in dieser Untersuchung der Automobilbau und seine Zulieferstruktur betrachtet werden, wird an den beteiligten Unternehmen dieser Lieferkette geprüft,wo der Grad der Spezialisierung und die Wichtigkeit des Prozessschritts für die jeweiligen Unternehmen liegen. Die gesamte Betrachtung bezieht sich dabei auf den Verarbeitungsschritt Spritzgießen. Die Arbeit zeigt an zwei Praxisbeispielen wie der Grundgedankedes Chemical Leasing (je weniger desto besser)mit den passenden Kunststoffprodukten positiv umgesetzt werden kann. Durch die Analyse der einzelnen Zulieferbetriebe kann schlussendlich festgelegt werden, bei welchen Kunden die Umstellung auf das Chemical Leasing erfolgreich sein wird.Der Vertriebsablauf wird sich durch den Einsatz von Chemical Leasing ändern, es wird aufgezeig twelche Maßnahmen ergriffen werden müssen,um diesem Wandel gewappnet zu sein.Die Arbeit zeigt, dass der Vertrieb von Kunststoffgranulat mit Chemical Leasing möglich ist.

Doses and methods of distribution of potassium chloride on soybean crop (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) in a red latosol, affecting soil salinity, grain production and chemical composition of leaves

The present work deal t wi th an experiment under field conditions and a laboratory test of soil incubation the objectives were as follows: a. to study effects on soybean grain product ion and leaf composition of increasing doses of potassium chloride applied into the soil through two methods of distribution; b. to observe chemical modifications in the soils incubated with increasing doses of potassium chloride; and, c. to correlate field effects with chemical alterations observed in the incubation test, The field experiment was carried out in a Red Latosol (Haplustox) with soybean cultivar UFV - 1. Potassium chloride was distributed through two methods: banded (5 cm below and 5 cm aside of the seed line) and broadcasted and plowed-down. Doses used were: 0; 50; 100 and 200 kg/ha of K2O. Foliar samples were taken at flowering stage. Incubation test were made in plastic bags with 2 kg of air dried fine soil, taken from the arable layer of the field experiment, with the following doses of KC1 p,a. : 0; 50; 100; 200; 400; 800; 1,600; 3.200; 6,400 and 12,800 kg/ha of K(2)0. In the conditions observed during the present work, results allowed the following conclusions: A response by soybean grain production for doses of potassium chloride, applied in both ways, banded or broadcasted, was not observed. Leaf analysis did not show treatment influence over the leaf contents for N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and CI, Potassium chloride salinity effects in both methods of distribution for all the tested closes were not observed.

Verwendung von acetyliertem Distärkephosphat und Distärkeadipat als Stabilisator in einer Lachscreme auf Emulsionsbasis

The present Bachelor thesis gives an overview of the influence of some starch esters (acetylated distarch phosphate (E 1414) and adipate (E1422)) as stabilizing agents in a salmon-emulsion-cream. The aim of this work was the development of an optimal recipe. Different concentrations of starches were used in combination with xanthan gum. The methods were used to describe the rheological, microphotographical, microbiological, chemical and sensorial characteristics of the spread. The analysis of determination and development of droplet size showed a significant reduction in coalescence process. Rheological experiments indicated that high concentrations of E 1414 are necessary getting a slightly higher viscosity than in case of the E 1422 creams. The microbiological results showed minimal differences. All tested samples showed high stability against oxidation. For the use of a new recipe acetylated distarch adipate is the better choice in this case.

Diversity and stability of fishes (Teleostei) in a temporary river of the Brazilian semiarid region

The effects of hydrological disturbances by flooding and drought on the diversity and stability in a temporary river fish community in the Brazilian semiarid region were analyzed over the 1996 hydrological cycle. Twelve collections of fishes were made during the wet and dry phases, and 789 individuals of 16 species were collected. Diversity was measured using Simpson's Index (S) and community stability was analyzed by the variation in abundance using Kendall's W concordance test. Fish diversity in the Taperoá river was subjected to hydrological disturbances by flooding and drought. During the wet phase the diversity was higher (S = 0.855) than during the dry phase (S = 0.771). The community was considered stable during the whole annual hydrological cycle (W = 0.418 p < 0.001), but a higher stability in the community was found during the dry phase. During the dry phase the number of dominant species was smaller than during the wet phase.

Stability and asymptotic analysis of a fluid-particle interaction model

We are interested in coupled microscopic/macroscopic models describing the evolution of particles dispersed in a fluid. The system consists in a Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation to describe the microscopic motion of the particles coupled to the Euler equations for a compressible fluid. We investigate dissipative quantities, equilibria and their stability properties and the role of external forces. We also study some asymptotic problems, their equilibria and stability and the derivation of macroscopic two-phase models.
