The Influence of Solid Additives on the Tribological Properties of Lubricants
(University of Hertfordshire, 2013-06-27)The present work investigates the tribological properties of solid particles as lubricant additives in lubricants. Two types of solid particles, Ceria nanoparticles (CeO2) and Zinc borate ultrafine powders (ZB UFPs), were ... -
Influence of soyabean meal supplementation on the resistance of Scottish Blackface lambs to haemonchosis
(1996-03)Protein supplementation improves the resistance of sheep to haemonchosis. This experiment investigated the Scottish blackface breed to establish whether dietary protein supplementation is still beneficial in a genetically ... -
Influence of supplementation with dietary soyabean meal on resistance to haemonchosis in Hampshire Down lambs
(1995-05)The influence of dietary protein supplementation on resistance to haemonchosis was examined in Hampshire down lambs fed either a basal diet or a diet supplemented with soyabean. At seven months of age the lambs were ... -
