Abstract

Poly (vinyl acetate)‐based emulsion polymer/isocyanates (EPI) structural wood adhesives were prepared and their performance benchmark tested according to the specifications of the Japanese JAS‐111 standard. The changes of the glass transition temperature of the cured emulsions relative to unmodified poly(vinyl acetate) emulsion, measured using differential scanning calorimetry, indicated the chemical structure changes resulting from modification of poly(vinyl acetate) emulsion. The EPI adhesives showed excellent water resistance and near‐colourless gluelines in wood joints, ease of application and additional significant advantages over other types of wood adhesives. The performance test results are interpreted on the basis of the viscoelastic behaviour of free‐standing adhesive films. Other types of crosslinkers were used in the study to compare with the isocyanate hardeners.

Abstract

Purpose

Integrating self-determination theory with work-family boundary theory, this study delves into the mechanism (i.e. workplace anxiety) and boundary (i.e. intrinsic motivation) by which family motivation can inadvertently escalate work interference with family.

Design/methodology/approach

We conducted two three-wave field survey studies of 468 employees and 298 employees in China to test the theoretical model.

Findings

When intrinsic motivation is weak, employees with high family motivation feel anxious at work and thus experience more work interference with family.

Practical implications

The motivation to support one’s family through work increases the possibility of workplace anxiety and work interference with family. To alleviate this impact, cultivating intrinsic motivation is important. Thus, we encourage employees to be compassionate toward their internal feelings and needs while performing their jobs. Moreover, organizations are encouraged to improve employees’ intrinsic motivation by implementing practices that support their basic psychological needs.

Originality/value

This study casts new light on the potential adverse effects that family motivation may have on the work-family interface, challenging the prevalent belief that working for the family invariably improves the work-family interface. Moreover, it provides a new lens to understand how valuing the family inadvertently increases work interference with family.

Abstract

Purpose

Cyclohexanone‐formaldehyde resins (CF‐Rs) were in situ modified with aniline, 4‐aminodiphenylamine, and NN′‐diphenyl‐1,4‐phenylene diamine in presence of sodium hydroxide. The purpose of this paper is to report the synthesis of conducting resins with aniline, dimer and trimer aniline, with a one‐step method of in situ modification of ketonic resin. The roles of ketone, aniline concentration, the conductivity of the product are investigated.

Design/methodology/approach

Ketone, formalin (37 per cent aqueous solution), aniline or oligoaniline were mixed and 20 per cent aqueous NaOH solution was added to produce the resin.

Findings

The aniline‐modified (CF‐Rs) were found to have conductivity values of 10−3‐10−5 S/cm and may be considered as conductive ketonic resin.

Research limitations/implications

The reaction mixture must be stirred continuously. Amount of aniline and oligoaniline is limited. Subsequently, 37 per cent formalin was added dropwise in total while refluxing. The amount of aniline is limited since the formed resin may become insoluble in common organic solvents.

Practical implications

This work provides the application of conducting resins. The modified resins containing aniline groups may also promote the adhesive strength of a coating and corrosion inhibition to metal surfaces.

Originality/value

Aniline formaldehyde, NN′‐diphenyl‐1,4‐phenylenediamine‐formaldehyde, aniline‐ and oligoaniline‐modified (CF‐Rs) have been synthesised in the presence of a base catalyst. These resins are conductive resins and the ketonic resins formed have physical properties of both aniline‐formaldehyde resins such as conductivity.

Abstract

Purpose

Family cues are widely used in interactive marketing because they appeal to a broad demographic, engaging consumers across different ages and life stages. This research aims to investigate whether and how family motivation, induced by exposure to family-related cues in marketing, influences consumers’ self-control behavior.

Design/methodology/approach

Seven studies – including one field experiment, five online experiments and one study analyzing secondary data – robustly support the hypothesis that family motivation enhances self-control by fostering a stronger future orientation. The main effect was tested through both field and online experiments. The mediating role of future orientation was explored using measured mediation as well as a process-manipulation approach. Additionally, we identified a boundary condition for this effect. Finally, real-world evidence for the proposed relationship was demonstrated through an analysis of secondary data from a large-scale, nationwide general social survey.

Findings

This research shows that family motivation enhances future orientation, which in turn promotes self-control. Furthermore, this relationship is moderated by a live-in-the-moment belief.

Practical implications

Marketing appeals emphasizing family should be directed toward services and products that are not seen as indulgent. Furthermore, we provide policymakers with a simpler alternative to traditional long-term self-control training by promoting self-control behavior through the activation of family motivation.

Originality/value

To the best of our knowledge, this research is the first to examine the impact of family motivation on consumer behavior. We also contribute to the self-control literature by identifying a new antecedent to self-control.

Abstract

Die Preiselastizität und die Einkommenselastizität der Tourismusnachfrage werden in der Fachiteratur ber Tourismus schon lange diskutiert (Hunziker W., Krapf, K., 1942, Menges, G., 1959, Znd R., 1969). Bekannt ist auch der Begriff der Freizeitelastizität (Socher, K., 1985). Über die ökologische Elastizität der Tourismusnachfrage steht bis heute kein grundlegend teoretisch sowie auch kein empirisch erfaßtes Datenmaterial zur Verfügung.

Abstract

The design of vacuum calibrators for the cooling of complex PVC profiles is central to the production of high quality extrudates. One important parameter governing cooling efficiency is the heat transfer coefficient at the interface between the stainless steel calibrator and the PVC extrudate, whose value is often taken as constant regardless of the extrusion velocity and the applied pressure vacuum. In this paper, a method is proposed to evaluate the variation of the heat transfer coefficient over the entire calibrator length. The idea is to use temperature measurements together with heat transfer simulation to derive a heat transfer correlation that can be used in practical design cases.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to investigate in situ modification of cyclohexanone‐formaldehyde resins (CFR) by 4‐vinyl aniline (Van). The roles of the reaction temperature, the conductivity, thermal properties, and molecular weight of the product were investigated. CFR was in situ modified with VAn in the presence of sodium hydroxide. Ketonic resin‐bound 4‐vinyl aniline was synthesised with a one‐step method of in situ modification of ketonic resin. The roles of the reaction temperature and the conductivity of the product were investigated.

Design/methodology/approach

Ketone, formalin (37% aqueous solution), vinyl aniline were mixed and then 20% aqueous NaOH solution was added to produce the resin. The solubility, molecular weight and thermal properties of the products were investigated.

Findings

The 4‐vinyl aniline modified cyclohexanone‐formaldehyde resins were found to have conductivity values of 10−4 and 10−2 S/cm and may be considered as conductive ketonic resin. Soluble and processable conductive ketonic resins were developed.

Research limitations/implications

The reaction mixture of CFR must be stirred continuously at low temperature. Subsequently, 37% formalin was added dropwise in equal portions while refluxing. Temperature should be controlled to prevent the thermal polymerisation of vinyl group and higher branching of amino groups. The amount of vinyl aniline used in reaction mixture is limited since the formed resin may become insoluble in common organic solvents.

Practical implications

This study provides technical information for the synthesis of conducting resins. The modified resins contain vinyl groups. The chemical redox or radical system can be used to polymerise these vinyl groups and resins with much higher molecular weight may be produced. The resins may also promote the adhesive strength of a coating and corrosion inhibition to metal surfaces of a coating.

Originality/value

Vinyl aniline modified cyclohexanone formaldehyde resins have been synthesised in the presence of a basice catalyst. These soluble and conductive resins may overcome difficulties in the applications of conducting polymers and open new application areas. Therefore, the vinyl aniline modified resin may find a number of new application areas, as well as existing conducting resin and polymer applications.

Abstract

The following is an annotated list of materials that discuss the ways in which librarians can provide library users with orientation to facilities and services, and instruct them in library information and computer skills. This is RSR's 11th annual review of this literature, and covers publications from 1984. A few items from 1983 have been included because of their significance, and because they were not available for review last year. Several items were not annotated because the compiler was unable to secure them.

Abstract

Auf eine detaillierte Beschreibung der Methoden der Fremdenverkehrsstatistik, die hier zu folgen hätte, kann verzichtet werden. Stellen wir uns die zwei Einheiten, die neun Merkmale, die Dutzende von Merkmalsmodalitäten, die Überfülle der Möglichkeiten zur Bildung von Gliederungszahlen, die ungefähr 20 Möglichkeiten der Bildung von Beziehungszahlen, die vielfältigen Möglichkeiten der Beschreibung von zeitlichen Entwicklungen allein in der Fremdenverkehrsstatistik im engeren Sinne, die Kapazitätsstatistik, die Grenzstatistiken, die Devisenstatistiken, die Bäderstatistik, die Erhebungen über Betriebsstruktur und Kostengestaltung gar nicht gerechnet, vor, so ersehen wir mit grosser Deutlichkeit, dass eine detaillierte Untersuchung der fremdenverkehrssoziologischen Tragweite der derzeitigen Statistik Bände füllen würde. Immerhin lässt sich emigermassen das wesentliche Resultat einer solchen Bemühung abschätzen. Bevor wir darauf eingehen, wollen wir jedoch exemplarisch an einer Möglichkeit die Prüfung im Detail vornehmen. Wir wählen die durchschnittliche Aufenthaltsdauer.
