In our mechanized day of mass production, the craft of hand-forming
sheet metal into compound curves and dashing fins and fenders is
fast becoming a lost art. Eddie Paul is a master at sheet metal
fabrication (among other accomplishments), and in this book he
gives readers the means to mold their own sheet metal creations.
Paul's engagingly written book talks about the necessary tools and
how to use them; how to choose, prepare and work with the right
material; how to make forms and mock-ups, and much more. Whether
you want to mold a fender for a custom car or just learn about this
intriguing process, Sheet Metal Fabrication is a thoroughly
readable reference book and guide, and a uniquely valuable
resource.
Education Law and Practice is a practical guide to this complicated
area of law, for all professionals advising parents and pupils as
well as schools and governing bodies. The work begins with an
introduction to the history and structure of the education system
before examining the key issues such as admissions, health and
safety, attendance, discipline, exclusion and special educational
needs, as well as issues specific to further and higher education.
Exudates are complex mixtures of organic compounds oozed by plants,
often, but not always as a result of injury. These products are
rich in carbon and hydrogen atoms and are also commonly called
"sap" although the word "sap" is used to describe any fluid that
travels inside plants. Only little research is currently underway
on gums from African plants, yet Africa imports a lot of gums for
pharmaceutical and food industries. This books presents exudate gum
from Daniella oliverri which has been analyzed for their
physiochemical properties, chemical constituents (using GC-MS).
Their application as corrosion inhibitor has been investigated and
reported. Furthermore, it gives an overview of the main application
fields of the plant gums, both in food, polymer and pharmaceutics.
Exudate gum from Combretum nigricans has been analysed for their
physicochemical properties, chemical constituents (using GC-MS) and
their application as corrosion inhibitor has been investigated.
Physicochemical properties of the gums reveal that the gum has some
potential for use in the food, polymer and pharmaceutical
industries as well as intermediates for other chemicals.This gum
has been found to be a good corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in
solution of HCl.
