All Things Bakelite Sneak Peek
ALL THINGS BAKELITE, the third documentary feature from Director John Maher (Throw it Down), will arrive on multiple digital platforms on June 29Â
worldwide. In partnership with Bitmax, Executive Producer Hugh Karraker is bringing his great-grandfather Leo Baekeland’s story to six continents via streaming platforms such as iTunes, Apple TV, Google Play, YouTube, VUDU and more.
In 1907, Leo Baekeland changed the world forever. Baekeland was a Belgian-American chemist best known for the inventions of Velox photographic paper in 1893, and, more importantly, Bakelite in 1907. He has been called “The Father of the Plastics Industry” for his invention of Bakelite, an inexpensive, nonflammable and versatile plastic, which marked the beginning of the modern plastics industry.

CUYAHOGA FALLS, Ohio Latex innovations, sustainability issues and supply chain disruptions will be among the topics discussed at the 2021 International Latex Conference, which will be held virtually July 20-22.
The event, which is presented by
Rubber & Plastics News, will feature nine hour-long presentations: Innovations and Sustainability in Natural Rubber Latex The New Paradigm with William Doyle, Product Development Consultant, Vystar Corp.; Joseph John, Director, Polymer Consultancy Services Ltd.; John Heath, Director, Latex, Corrie MacColl Ltd.; and Ranjit Matthan, Director, Vystar Corp., 10 a.m., July 20
Join three experts as they take your questions on emerging trends in food safety, the analytical challenges they face and where gas chromatography mass spectrometry is headed.
Abstract:
The presentation will discuss the structural diversity of condensed tannins (CTs) present in plant materials and enable the audience to appreciate that not all CTs are the same. Examples of how CT structural diversity affects the interaction of CTs with proteins will be provided. Description of the hurdles in obtaining highly pure and well- characterized CTs from natural sources will be discussed. The reasons why these purified CTs are necessary for studies to determine CT content in plant materials and in attempts to elucidate how CTs impart their biological effect will be provided. We will then briefly describe the analytical methods used in CT structural and forage content determinations. Lastly, we will discuss our efforts to establish a universal CT nomenclature scheme to efficiently capture the structural diversity of CTs.
