Yes. PHAs are environmentally benign, require less energy equivalent for their manufacture, are biodegradable, and are made from carbon dioxide, sunlight and water.

Yes. Mirels are environmentally benign, require less energy equivalent for their manufacture, are biodegradable, and are made from carbon dioxide, sunlight and water.

PHAs (polyhydroxyalkanoates) (see PHA history) are a very broad and versatile family of polymers that are made biologically, converting sunlight and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere using microbial or plant bio-factories. Technically, they are a family of aliphatic polyesters.

In many applications, PHAs provide a cost-effective, sustainable alternative to currently used polymers based on fossil carbon. They also bring new functionality to the market place, making possible new product concepts that cannot be delivered with current ranges of materials. An example of this is flushable wet wipes, which combine the stability of Natural Plastics to water with their biodegradability.

At this time, Metabolix supplies PHA materials to qualified parties under Material Transfer Agreements. We do not otherwise provide samples.

Yes. In addition they can biodegrade in soil and backyard compost, fresh and marine water as well as in anaerobic environments such as septic systems.

Besides the information contained on this website, there is a considerable literature about Natural Plastics. Citations can be found in our website.

Using natural skin care products are purely a matter of preference. If you are interested in products with hydrating, nurturing properties with ingredients that come from nature and not chemicals, you will be very pleased with our natural skin care products.

Absolutely. Did you know that one baby will need over 6,000 disposable diapers for a 2 1/2 year diapering period. Disposable diapers are made of a waterproof polyethylene outer layer, with an inner layer of wood pulp and synthetic polyacrylate (a super-absorbent crystal), along with a water-repellant liner. Many brands also use fragrances and perfumes in their diapers. To acquire the wood pulp for disposable diapers, one billion trees world-wide are cut down per year. Read more

Biodiesel is the only alternative fuel to have fully completed the health effects testing requirements of the Clean Air Act. The use of biodiesel in a conventional diesel engine results in: Substantial reduction of unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter compared to emissions from petroleum diesel fuel A 1998 biodiesel life cycle study, jointly sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S.

The first important aspect to point out is that a one gel system does not mean one step. Although a one gel system may at first seem faster or more economical, these systems do not deliver on those promises. The actual result is that a one gel system requires more than one application of gel. The natural nail is just not thick enough initially to put on one coat of gel and let it go.

Natural Vitamin E (d-alpha-tocopherol) has about twice the biological activity than commonly used synthetic Vitamin E (dl-alpha-tocopherol). LifePak also provides mixed natural tocopherols (alpha, beta, gamma, and delta tocopherols), which further enhance the antioxidant protection provided by Vitamin E.

There is a big difference between "natural" and "additive-free". Some products claim to be natural when they are actually free of additives. That's a good thing of course, but harmful unnatural ingredients can be manufactured additive-free. Our bodies cannot handle unnatural ingredients properly. Candy and ice cream are good examples. Sugar or corn syrup are frequent basic ingredients and are as unnatural as you can get. They have been refined, processed and altered from their original state.

Traditional domain parking services are just pages of links to other sites, or even just an under construction page. While those types of services offer no value to search engines or visitors, WhyPark.com does provide value. Rather than a page of links, a domain parked at WhyPark.com includes hundreds or thousands of pages of real content, directly related to the keywords you choose. We even update your site with fresh content on a constant basis.

We do know that laminated tubes of all colors tend to be better deep. If you're talking about river fishing, the 5" baits are definitely higher percentage.

There are three steps required to take the PHA. (1) Set up a PatientLink account at http://patientlink.osumc.edu . PatientLink is an OSUMC web site that provides access to the PHA. (2) Faculty and staff can sign up for a free health screening at www.osumhcs.org/hra/register . You must have recent (within the last 12 months) measures of these vital statistics to complete the PHA and get the most complete and accurate results.

Natural Gas is composed mostly of methane. The emissions from methane combustion are carbon dioxide and water. Natural gas emits fewer greenhouse gases than any other fossil fuel.

UT Arlington and Carrizo are committed to an environmentally safe and responsible gas exploration and production program. The very latest advances in drilling and extraction technology are being utilized on the UT Arlington campus.

Annexation is about changing municipal jurisdictions. It is not about immediate development, although planning for development will occur in some areas soon after annexation. Until planning and subdivision occur, lands remain in their present natural state or the existing rural land uses continue. The City of Calgary is committed to protecting natural and environmentally significant areas as part of our planning processes.

Infrared heaters warm the body in the same manner as natural sunlight. FIR heat therapy uses the wavelength of the visible and non-visible light spectrum of sunlight that heats the body normally. Traditional steam saunas raise the temperature of the air to a very high level within the chamber to warm the body. FIR saunas work differently. Instead of heating the air within the enclosure, FIR saunas emit a wavelength and heat the body directly.
