Article Synopsis
- Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer in people with fair skin but is often underreported, leading to a lack of incidence data globally.* -
- This study analyzed BCC incidence rates in two French regions, Doubs and Haut-Rhin, revealing significant increases from 1980 to 2019, with higher rates among men and older adults.* -
- While the overall rates are still rising, the study notes a slowdown in the growth of BCC incidents post-2000, suggesting changes in BCC management practices.*
1,3:2,4-bis(3,4-dimethylbenzylidene)sorbitol (DMDBS) is highly effective in nucleation of the α- form of isotactic polypropylene (iPP). However, its role in high-pressure crystallization of iPP, facilitating the formation of the γ- polymorph, has not been explored. The present paper focuses on the influence of DMDBS on nucleation of high-pressure crystallization of iPP.

Three nucleating agents were used to nucleate crystallization of PP under atmospheric pressure: commercial Hyperform HPN-20E from Milliken Chemical, poly(tetrafluoroethylene) particles nucleating the α-form, and calcium pimelate nucleating the β-form. Crystallization of neat PP and PP with addition of 0.
