Integrating generative AI with ABCDE rule analysis for enhanced skin cancer diagnosis, dermatologist training and patient education.

The early detection and accurate monitoring of suspicious skin lesions are critical for effective dermatological diagnosis and treatment, particularly for reliable identification of the progression of nevi to melanoma. The traditional diagnostic framework, the ABCDE rule, provides a foundation for evaluating lesion characteristics by visual examination using dermoscopes. Simulations of skin lesion progression could improve the understanding of melanoma growth patterns. This study aims to enhance lesion analysis and understanding of lesion progression by providing a simulated potential progression of nevi into melanomas. The study generates a dataset of simulated lesion progressions, from nevi to simulated melanoma, based on a Cycle-Consistent Adversarial Network (Cycle-GAN) and frame interpolation. We apply an optical flow analysis to the generated dermoscopic image sequences, enabling the quantification of lesion transformation. In parallel, we evaluate changes in ABCDE rule metrics as example to assess the simulated evolution. We present the first simulation of nevi progressing into simulated melanoma counterparts, consisting of 152 detailed steps. The ABCDE rule metrics correlate with the simulation in a natural manner. For the seven samples studied, the asymmetry metric increased by an average of 19%, the border gradient metric increased by an average of 63%, the convexity metric decreased by an average of 3%, the diameter increased by an average of 2%, and the color dispersion metric increased by an average of 45%. The diagnostic value of the ABCDE rule is enhanced through the addition of insights based on optical flow. The outward expansion of lesions, as captured by optical flow vectors, correlates strongly with the expected increase in diameter, confirming the simulation's fidelity to known lesion growth patterns. The heatmap visualizations further illustrate the degree of change within lesions, offering an intuitive visual proxy for lesion evolution. The achieved simulations of potential lesion progressions could facilitate improved early detection and understanding of how lesions evolve. By combining the optical flow analysis with the established criteria of the ABCDE rule, this study presents a significant advancement in dermatoscopic diagnostics and patient education. Future research will focus on applying this integrated approach to real patient data, with the aim of enhancing the understanding of lesion progression and the personalization of dermatological care.

Polarization-switchable structural colors generated by AlN metasurfaces and the effect of different substrates

Metasurfaces have the capability to boost the generation of distinct colors by improving the interaction between surface materials and photons. We present a straightforward and polarization-tunable aluminum nitride metasurface. This metasurface enables the display and concealment of the composition pattern and exhibits color switching by modifying the polarization state of the incident light. We further explore the impact of different substrates on metasurface performance. The results indicate that the full width at half maximum of the reflectance curves increases with the increase of the refractive index between the nanostructures and the substrate material, which leads to a broader dispersion of the structural colors in the spectrum. Moreover, the sizes of the nanostructures can be gradually reduced for the substrate with a high refractive index. These findings not only offer polarization-tunable structural color metasurfaces but also provide essential insights in selecting nanostructure and substrate materials, which will help in the design of nanostructures for such metasurfaces.

Copper I-II-containing composites and coatings with high and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity

Recently, antimicrobial surface coatings have emerged as an effective strategy to mitigate microbial contamination and disease transmission. The application of cuprous (I) oxide (Cu2O) and copper (II) pyrithione (CPT) in antimicrobial surfaces faces several challenges such as deep color, weak stability, limited functionality, and poor dispersion in coatings. These challenges complicate the design of novel copper-based antimicrobial agents. In this study, high-purity CPT was synthesized innovatively using Cu2O as a copper source, differing from traditional methods. Following this approach, diatomaceous earth/cuprous oxide/copper pyrithione (DME/Cu2O/CPT) composites with enhanced antimicrobial activity and a lighter color than Cu2O and CPT were prepared by adjusting the SPT dosage. Notably, in DME/Cu2O/CPT composites, Cu2O existed as nanoscale fragments adhering to the surfaces of CPT. Furthermore, coatings made from composites and latex paint exhibited a lighter color difference, higher stability, and exceptional antimicrobial activity against pathogens such as S. aureus, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, C. albicans, and human enterovirus 71. The DME/Cu2O/CPT composites displayed high, stable, and broad-spectrum antimicrobial efficacy, attributing to the synergistic enhancement effects of released Cu+ and Cu2+. Consequently, this study introduced a simple and scalable method for preparing DME/Cu2O/CPT composites, serving as a coating additive with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and long-term stability for various solid surfaces.

10‐1: Optical Simulation and Improvement of the Reflection Pattern of Polarizer‐Free OLED Panel

The reflection color dispersion phenomenon is more visible on polarizer‐free OLED panel compared to the panel with polarizer. However, the mechanism and detailed analysis of this effect is very limited in previous reports. The panel reflection patterns are usually very sophisticated, which are composed of rings, dots and color distribution (R G B reflection located at different direction of the panel, respectively). In this paper, the causes of the reflection pattern are analyzed in detail and the influential factors of the shape, distribution, color and other characteristics of the reflection pattern are clarified and verified through the comparison of simulation and actual results. Finally, ideas for improving reflection pattern are proposed.

Lightweight all-focused light field rendering

This paper proposes a novel real-time method for high-quality view interpolation from light field. The proposal is a lightweight method, which can be used with consumer GPU, reaching same or better quality than existing methods, in a shorter time, with significantly smaller memory requirements. Light field belongs to image-based rendering methods that can produce realistic images without computationally demanding algorithms. The novel view is synthesized from multiple input images of the same scene, captured at different camera positions. Standard rendering techniques, such as rasterization or ray-tracing, are limited in terms of quality, memory footprint, and speed. Light field rendering methods often produce unwanted artifacts resembling ghosting or blur in certain parts of the scene due to unknown geometry of the scene. The proposed method estimates the geometry for each pixel as an optimal focusing distance to mitigate the artifacts. The focusing distance determines which pixels from the input images are mixed to produce the final view. State-of-the-art methods use a constant-step pixel matching scan that iterates over a range of focusing distances. The scan searches for a distance with the smallest color dispersion of the contributing pixels, assuming that they belong to the same spot in the scene. The paper proposes an optimal scanning strategy of the focusing range, an improved color dispersion metric, and other minor improvements, such as sampling block size adjustment, out-of-bounds sampling, and filtering. Experimental results show that the proposal uses less resources, achieves better visual quality, and is significantly faster than existing light field rendering methods. The proposal is 8× faster than the methods in the same category. The proposal uses only four closest views from the light field data and reduces the necessary data transfer. Existing methods often require the full light field grid, which is typically 8 × 8 images large. Additionally, a new 4K light field dataset, containing scenes of various types, was created and published. An optimal novel method for light field acquisition is also proposed and used to create the dataset.

Maximization of the blue-white contrast of ancient porcelain decorations from Jingdezhen imperial kiln by Co-spinel formation

By analyzing the chromaticity values of the ancient blue-and-white porcelain combined with the imitated experiment, the color information is quantified and ‘color dispersion’ mechanism is clarified. Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), the advanced focused ion beam transmission electron microscopy (FIB-TEM) technique, etc, were used to study the characteristics and the ‘color dispersion’ mechanism of the blue-and-white porcelain in Jingdezhen imperial kiln. The ‘color dispersion’ of the blue-and-white porcelain is mainly caused by Co-element structure stability, which is verified by the archaeological experiment results. Blue-and-white decoration lines diffusion length (named as ‘color dispersion’) are long (i.e. fuzzy) which has few or no spinel crystals in the body-glaze interaction layer of the blue-and-white porcelain. However, the blue and white porcelain with the clear lines has a large number of spinel crystals. The experimental results enrich the literature on the history of ceramic manufacturing techniques in Jingdezhen.

Effect of isoindole derivative pigments with planar macroconjugated structure on the UV resistance of HDPE

Different colors of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) natural gas pipelines, water supply pipelines, geomembranes in small communities, garden agriculture, and large factories, play a differentiation, warning, decorative aesthetic, and other aspects of the role. However, little research has been done on HDPE that can be used for long periods and in a variety of colors other than black and white. Phthalocyanine pigments with a large planar conjugate structure are often used in modern artists' paints because of their good stability and are hopeful for use in HDPE. For this reason, in this paper, phthalocyanine blue with a high lightfastness rating was selected. Pure HDPE and HDPE with pigment were compared by color difference, carbonyl index (CI), mechanical properties, and thermomechanical properties before and after UV irradiation. After irradiation for 2000 h, the latter not only did not fade easily but also maintained 82 % elongation at break. At the same time, the carbonyl index was much lower, representing the addition of pigments to inhibit the photo-aging process. Hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) were also added to the matrix to further improve the ultraviolet (UV) stability along with ultraviolet light absorber (UVA). Addition of HALS and pigments had a positive effect on the UV stability of HDPE, but the excess of HALS had a negative effect on color stability, dispensability and tensile strength. Addition of UVA had little effect on HDPE/Blue/HALS. Finally, the mechanism of the phthalocyanine blue pigment in improving the light aging resistance of HDPE was investigated by ultraviolet spectroscopy. HDPE/Blue/HALS prepared in this work had a low CI and high elongation at break of all formulations at 2000 h of irradiation, indicating that it maintains good performance over a long period of time. The low color change and dispersion uniformity of that under prolonged irradiation met the long-term aesthetic needs of HDPE.

Educational simulations of spectral color dispersion in negative index prisms

AbstractUsing a free, open‐source ray‐tracing program, photorealistic spectral images have been created to show how several prisms would appear in the real world if they were made with materials that have a negative index of refraction (metamaterials). The aim of this work is to provide students with a visual interpretation of the atypical behavior of negative‐index materials and a look at dispersion in the visible range in such prisms, resulting in educationally valuable outcomes.

Development of a High‐Performance, Anti‐Fouling Optical Diffuser Inspired by Morpho Butterfly's Nanostructure

AbstractThe realization of high‐performance, anti‐fouling optical diffusers is crucial for various light applications. However, this remains a major challenge for conventional diffusers because of the optical inefficiency of multiple scattering and/or surface reliefs vulnerable to contamination. Inspired by the disordered nanostructure of Morpho butterflies that enables the simultaneous fulfillment of wide‐angle diffraction, low color dispersion, and superhydrophobic self‐cleaning ability due to the lotus effect, this study demonstrates a novel Morpho‐type diffuser with high optical performance and anti‐fouling properties. Surface nanopatterns of the diffuser are newly designed to realize homogeneous light diffusion, combined with the suitable material selection of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to induce the lotus effect. Consequently, the following properties are simultaneously achieved: i) high transmittance ≈90%; ii) wide‐angle diffusion (full width at half maximum ≈80°) with high spatial uniformity; iii) low dispersion; iv) high controllability of anisotropy; and v) anti‐fouling properties. Moreover, vi) the applicability of surface protection is demonstrated by exploiting the high flexibility/adhesivity of PDMS. These capabilities surpass other diffusers, and therefore the presented diffuser is promising for a wide range of applications such as lighting, displays, daylight harvesting, optoelectronics, and medicine.

MORPHOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF RED SNAKE FRUIT (Salacca edulis) BASED ON DIFFERENT GROWTH SPOT ALTITUDE

In Maluku province, especially West Seram Regency (SBB) Taniwel district, has been found the snake fruit with thick fruit with dark yellow color and red dispersion, named salak merah. Buria village and Riring village are samples of breeding central red snake fruit at different altitude that allows different morphology characteristics on red snake fruit, especially on its fruit. the purpose of this research is to know the morphometrics of red snake fruit at lower altitude (Buria village) and higher altitudes (Riring village). This research is a laboratory research type with the only object being red snake fruit taken with purposive sampling. Data were analyzed descriptively. The research shows that the morphometric of red snake fruit from Buria village for length fruit parameter, fruit diameter, middle thickness, skin thickness, and fruit weight in the range of 5.33 cm, 4.66 cm, 1.72 cm, 0.1 cm, and 52.89 gr. While the morphometric of red snake fruit from Riring village was in the range of 5.15 cm, 4.45 cm, 1.47 cm, 0,1 cm, and 46.51 gr. The morphometric value of red snake fruit of Buria village is higher compared to the morphometric value of red snake fruit from Riring village. Therefore, we can conclude that the difference in the altitude of the growth spot gives a real significant difference in the morphometric value of red snake fruit, where the higher the altitude at the plant grows, the lower the morphometric value of the plant. This research is only limited to the fruit morphometric, in hope that there will be another progression on other morphometric parameters, like a leaf, stem, and flower, in addition to its environmental chemical and physical factors that giving significant influence towards the morphometric value of red snake fruit in Taniwel district, West Seram Regency (SBB).

Underwater Image Enhancement Based on Zero-Reference Deep Network

Due to underwater light absorption and scattering, underwater images usually suffer from severe color attenuation and contrast reduction. Most mainstream underwater image processing methods based on deep learning require a large amount of underwater paired training data, leading to a complex network structure, longer training time, and higher computational cost. To address this problem, a novel Zero-Reference Deep Network for Underwater Image Enhancement (Zero-UIE) is proposed in this paper, which transforms the enhancement of an underwater image into a specific parameter map estimation by using a deep network. The underwater curve model based on the classical haze image formation principle is specially designed to remove underwater color dispersion and cast. A lightweight deep network is designed to estimate the dynamic adjustment parameters of the underwater curve model, and then adjust the dynamic range of the given image pixels according to the model. A set of non-reference loss functions are designed according to the characteristics of underwater images, which can implicitly drive the network learning. In addition, adaptive color compensation can be optionally used as the pre-processing step to further improve the robustness and visual performance. The significant contribution of the proposed method is zero reference, i.e., it does not require any paired or unpaired reference data for training. Extensive experiments on various benchmarks demonstrate that the proposed method is superior to state-of-the-art methods subjectively and objectively, which is competitive and applicable to diverse underwater conditions. Most importantly, it is an innovative exploration of zero reference for underwater image enhancement.

Polymeric Surfactants Bearing Divalent Carboxy Pendants for Stable Color Dispersions with High Redispersibility

Inkjet printing of ink requires dyes or pigments insoluble in water but uniformly dispersing as fine particles for a long period. In addition, redispersibility after solidification by solvent vaporization around the jetting heads is also important for performance. In this study, thus, a series of amphiphilic copolymers were prepared for a dispersant of inkjet using reversible addition fragmentation chain-transfer copolymerization of styrene (St), benzyl acrylate (BnA), and phenoxyethyl acrylate (PEA) as a hydrophobic monomer with acrylic acid (AA) and itaconic acid (IA) as a hydrophilic monomer. To understand the fundamental properties and potentials as a polymer dispersant, the surface parameters and rheology of the copolymers and their color dispersions in aqueous media were investigated. The aqueous solutions were typical Newtonian fluids, whereas the color dispersions were non-Newtonian fluids with shear-thinning properties and yield values ranging from 0.57 to 1.04 Pa. Although the surface parameters, such as surface tension (γ), molecular occupied area (Amin), and zeta potential (ζ), did not show clear correlation with polymer structures, their behaviors as a dispersant were significantly different. The color dispersants containing the copolymer of St or BnA as a hydrophobic monomer and IA and AMPS as hydrophilic monomers exhibited sufficient redispersion both for yellow and cyan inks, even after the aging test at 60 °C for 5 days, whereas other copolymers did not exhibit such superior performances. In addition, the color dispersions of the copolymer of St, IA, and AMPS (St-IA-AMPS) showed lower viscosity and yield value and became closer to Newtonian fluid compared with that of St, AA, and AMPS (St-AA-AMPS). Thus, St-IA-AMPS provided good redispersibility and avoided sedimentation. These results suggest that the most suitable dispersant for inkjet inks among the polymers investigated was the copolymer of St, IA, and AMPS.

Natural Variability of the Color of Beech Wood in the Color Space CIE L*a*b*

In this contribution, the color of dry beech wood from the zone, sapwood, mature wood and false heartwood of Fagus sylvatica L. trees was analyzed, and the measurement values were statistically processed in relation to the lightness coordinate L* as well as the chromatic coordinates of red color a* and yellow color b* in the color space CIE L*a*b*. The dispersion of color (color dispersion) ∆EuC of beech wood in coreless zones and the color of the wood of false heartwood were evaluated through the combined standard uncertainties of the individual coordinates of the color space. The visual color differences between the color of sapwood beech wood and the color of mature wood as well as between the color of sapwood and false heartwood are numerically documented through the values of total color differences ∆E* = 3.5 and ∆E* = 18.1. Within the framework of the categorization, the color difference between mature wood and sapwood belongs to the category of visible changes, and the difference between the color of the wood of the false heartwood and the color of the sapwood belongs to the category of significant color changes. By defining the boundaries of the color of beech wood for the color of sapwood, mature wood and false heartwood in the color space CIE L*a*b*, space is created to sort it into color groups in case of customer requests. At the same time, designers are expanding the possibilities of applying beech wood to color compositions, depending on the darkness and color of the beech wood identified by the values of the color space coordinates.

Anti-Dyslipidemia effectiveness of andaliman fruit extract (Zanthoxylum acanthopodium) in Wistar rats given a high fat diet and PTU (Propylthiouracil)

The andaliman fruit contains many phytochemicals, such as phenols, saponins, flavonoids, triterpenoids, and alkaloids, and has various pharmacological effects such as: anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antidiabetic, and antibacterial. This study aimed to explore the antidislipidemia effectiveness of andaliman fruit extract. This experimental study used the Pre-test and Post-test group-only control design approach using Wistar male rats as experimental animals. The sample size in this study was calculated using the Federer formula; the calculation showed that at least four male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) were needed in each treatment group. First, the research data were analyzed descriptively (Central tendency and Dispersion) of lipid profile data (LDL, HDL, Total cholesterol, and Triglycerides), color, texture, and weight. Then the research data in the form of lipid profiles were analyzed with One-Way Anova if the data were normally distributed with further tests in the form of Post Hoc Tukey HSD tests to see the fundamental differences between treatments. However, if the data were not normally distributed, the Kruskall-Wallis test was used as an alternative. The results showed that the total cholesterol of rats before being given a high-fat diet in all treatment groups did not show significant differences (P value = 0.782). This indicates that all rats' cholesterol data were uniform before being given the high-fat diet. However, after a high-fat diet, total cholesterol in all groups of rats showed different distributions. Only the control, standard, andaliman fruit methanol extract-I, II, and III groups had uniform total cholesterol. The methanol extract of andaliman fruit could significantly reduce total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, and SGOT levels compared to the control group. In contrast, the methanol extract of andaliman fruit could dramatically increase HDL levels compared to the control group.

Sequential electron beam and bioflocculation for treatment of textile nanodyes.

Nanodyes are a new class of hazardous materials that are used in textile coloring. Their small size, color, stability and high dispersion characteristics pose a huge threat if they are released in open water systems. The aim of the present study is to test electron beam irradiation, bioflocculation and their sequential use for nanodye removal. The nanodye was obtained from a factory and was characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, zeta potential and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). The obtained results show that applying 7.5 kGy electron beam irradiation results in complete color removal in 10 min for 50 and 100 ppm nanodye, while at 200 and 400 ppm concentrations, the decolorization reaches 90% but leaving a residual brownish color. Adding 5 mg mL-1 of Serratia marcescens N2 biosurfactant resulted in agglomeration of 80% dye removal for 400 ppm nanodye after 24 h. On the other hand, the use of sequential electron beam and bioflocculation led to an initial removal of 80% in 1 h. The residual dyes were tested for toxicity on normal dermal HFB4 cells. The toxicity result was 1.19% after electron beam treatment, while those for sequential treatment and bioflocculation were 6.28 and 6.9%, respectively. It can be concluded that electron beam technology provides fast and highly efficient nanodye removal, while biosurfactants offer a low-cost, eco-friendly approach with a chance for dye retrieval.

Inheritance of spike color in einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum L.)

Aim: specify the spike color inheritance in einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum L.) hybrids. Methods: reciprocal hybrids between the black-spikeed UA0300282 and white-spikeed UA0300311 cultivated einkorn accessions were created with the use of the “single cross” method. Four generations were analyzed using the segregation analysis method: P1, P2, F1, and F2 at autumn and spring sowing. Results: it was found that for the combination UA0300311 × UA0300282 at autumn sowing, the most suitable inheritance model is MX2-EA-AD, which implies the presence of two main genes with an equal additive effect plus polygene systems with an additive-dominant effect. In the plants of spring sowing, spike color is described by the MX2-CD-AD model, which suggests the presence of two major genes with full dominant effect plus polygenes with additive-dominant effect. In the reciprocal combination UA0300282 × UA0300311, the optimal model that describes best the spike color dispersion in plants of autumn sowing is MX2-ADI-AD, which suggests the presence of two main genes with an additive-dominant-epistatic effect plus polygenes with the additive-dominant effect. Distribution of the spring-sowing plants in terms of the spike color is well described by the MX2-ADI-ADI model – two main genes with an additive-dominant-epistatic effect plus a system of polygenes also with an additive-dominant-epistatic effect. The genes manifest themselves differently in the trait control depending on the weather conditions determined by the sowing time. In the group of direct combination plants (UA0300311 × UA0300282) of autumn sowing, heritability determined by the main gene is 97%, while that determined by polygenes is 2.7%; at spring sowing, these values are 67% and 32% respectively. In the reciprocal combination (UA0300282 × UA0300311) of autumn sowing, the main genes heritability effect is 99%, and the polygenic system accounts for 1%; in plants of spring sowing, respectively, 72%, and 28%. Conclusions: on the basis of the spike color expressiveness in the crossing combination of the einkorn kinds of wheat UA0300311 × UA0300282, the parental forms differ in two main genes and polygenes. The ratio of spike color heritability components depends on the growing conditions: at autumn sowing, 97–99 % of heritability is determined by the main genes, the polygenes account for 1–3 % of phenotypic variability; at spring sowing, the heritability component increases to 28–33 % due to the polygenic complex.

Color mixing in targets seen through turbulence

We propose a novel imaging technique for assessing turbulence strength based on the color fluctuations of remote targets. Their chromatic changes, due to color mixing produced by the atmospheric optical turbulence, is characterized. We take advantage of a RGB Fourier transform-based color space to analyze the chromatic information on target images; then, through a model of primary color overlays, a chromatic shift measure is defined by the statistical dispersion of pixel colors. It is shown that such color changes can be related to the strength of refractive index fluctuations defined by the structure constant, .

360-degree mixed reality volumetric display using an asymmetric diffusive holographic optical element.

Volumetric display technique has a great advantage of displaying realistic three-dimensional contents with a 360-degree viewing angle. However, most volumetric displays cannot provide mixed reality because their screens inside the displays obstruct the external scene. We design a 360-degree mixed-reality volumetric display using an asymmetric diffusive holographic optical element (ADHOE). The ADHOE has wavelength selectivity, and it diffuses the light with the only specific wavelength for the virtual object, so it is possible to optically combine the virtual object and the real scene. Also, the ADHOE has different vertical and horizontal diffusing angles, and it is suitable for a horizontal-parallax-only application. In our system, the parallax images are generated by the DMD, and they are projected sequentially on the ADHOE. The ADHOE is shaped as a slanted curved surface with respect to the optical axis, and some annoying color dispersion is observed due to the mismatch between the diffraction peak points of two different wavelengths. In order to solve this problem, the carrier frequency is applied to green elemental images and the proper Fourier filter cuts off the unwanted diffraction peak points. The Fourier transform with 2f optics is built to record the ADHOE where the angular spectral bandwidth is determined by adjusting the width of the incident object light. A 360-degree see-through display with ADHOE is implemented and the feasibility of mixed reality is verified successfully.

Box-Behnken Design for Polycarbonate-Pigment Blending: Applications and Characterization Techniques.

Incorporating pigments into polymers can be done for various purposes, including the introduction of color, interfacial effects, or aesthetics. If these pigments are to disperse properly, then the process of extrusion must be optimized. During polymer compounding extrusion, three effective processing factors were investigated: feed rate (FR), speed (Sp.) and temperature (temp.) for a colored compounded polycarbonate (PC) grade (30/70%). The processing design techniques were obtained by applying design experiments in a response surface methodology (RSM) to blend two polycarbonates with pigments and optimize the processing temperatures at center points. The first study decided to utilize the response surface approach of Box-Behnken design (BBD) to design an experiment to optimize the process parameters. Statistical significance was demonstrated by the model passing all diagnostic tests. Furthermore, the three processing factors strongly impacted the characteristics of the tri-stimulus color, according to the results from a variance analysis. The second study identified process variables for the same PC grade at the center level, 25 kg/h FR, 750 rpm speed, and (255 °C) temp. The characterization and scanning morphology were examined using MicroCtscanner image analysis, SEM, DOM, rheology, FT-IR, and color-pigmented values were measured using a color spectrometer. The output response was significantly impacted when excellent color dispersion was observed with few agglomerates and less differences in colors at the center point. By characterizing these results and having good insight into color difference output and processing condition relationships, which have an adverse effect on color variation characteristics and minimize recycling compounds of different grades, results in cleaner environments benefits.

Теории медиа: нормализация и вариантология

The author suggests to look at media research from a historical perspective and compare the projects of the “golden period”, that is, the 1990s – early 2000s, with the works of recent years. After preliminary contextual explanations, choosing for a more detailed presentation projects of S. Zielinski and J. Parikka, the author shows how the tasks of media studies and their methodology change during the transition from large-scale panoramas claiming to build a new history from the perspectives of media to often fragmented and situational analyses of components of chosen media (for example, the translation of color dispersion into the chemical language of a photograph of a distant star). This was the way by which archaeology, attentive to geological time, turned into archival work being done for “commercial use or machine learning”. This is how the radical approaches to media research characteristic of the first media theorists are leveled, because scientists publishing their works since the second half of the 2010s contribute to the normalization of media theory by bringing it to the long-discussed topics of other disciplines, such as cognitive functions or theories of signs. At the same time, media theory of recent years is being largely politicized, adopting governmental instructions and reducing the “variantology” and multiplicity of media that were developed earlier.
