Comparison of Wood Veneer-Based Composite Characteristics Made of Jabon Wood (Neolamarckia cadamba) and Sengon Wood (Falcataria moluccana) by Eka Mulya Alamsyah, Ahmad Fawwaz Abdullah, Rafael Niko Navarro, Yoyo Suhaya, Sutrisno Sutrisno, Asep Suheri, Yooce Yustiana, Jamaludin Malik, Sasa Sofyan Munawar

“…This study will investigate whether jabon wood can be utilized as raw material for wood composite, such as laminated veneer lumber (LVL), laminated veneer board (LVB), and plywood, from the aspect of physical and mechanical characteristics, such as moisture content, density, bending strength, hardness, delamination, and formaldehyde emission. Another will find out the economic consideration of jabon compared with sengon wood. …”

RESULTS OF EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH COMPARING THE EFFICIENCY OF MARINE SAMPLERS IN RESEARCHING THE CONTENT OF MICROPLASTIC IN BOTTOM SEDIMENTS by V.O. Iemelianov, Ye.І. Nasiedkіn, T.S. Kukovska, N.O. Fedoronchuk, S.M. Dovbysh

“…As a result of the performed field and laboratory work, new data were obtained, which allow us to conduct comparative characteristics of the quality of bottom sediment sampling for the presence of microplastics with such devices as a multicorer and a bottom scoop, and to find out the potential loss of actual material by one of the devices in comparison with another. This allows not only to improve the selection method and prevent the loss of actual material, but also to form the appropriate coefficients of quantitative conversion in the event that it is necessary to involve both options for obtaining samples of bottom sediments within the framework of one task. …”
