Chemically all polymeric materials comprise of hydro-carbon chains and usually have high heat of combustion. When they are exposed to fire, they burn rapidly with the release of high amount of heat, flame and smoke. Similarly the natural fibers, wood flour, are highly combustible and burn rapidly. So for safely use of the composites materials they must have flame retardant properties as well.
Rene Descartes experiment is to melt the wax to try to prove existence. Rene Descartes also shares with us what is happening to the wax while it is close to fire.
The tangible characteristics are no longer present, and the wax melts. The melting, replaces the honey flavor with nothing, the flower scent with no scent, the cold and hard become the hot and liquid, the wax becomes too hot to touch let alone make a noise when rapped upon, the color changes, the shape shifts, and the size increases. Thus, everything Descartes thought to note about the wax had changed or disappeared. In his original description, he relied only upon his sense to explain the wax. But after that has failed him, Descartes calls into doubt his senses and decides to define the wax without the use of his senses. The problem Descartes runs into with this line of thinking is he now is trusting his senses to discount what his sense told him a first time. Therefore, Descartes must neglect to use his senses for the new description of the wax. Leaving his only knowledge of the wax to be its condition to change, Descartes’ new description of the wax states “only that it is something extended, flexible, and mutable … rather, I perceive it through the mind alone” (67-68). Descartes limits his knowledge from qualitative descriptions and only uses quantitative measures from his
Now, because the wax’s essential properties are not to be found among its sensory characteristics, we discard them to see what is left. Descartes specifies that only ...
What is aromatherapy? In an article titled “Phytotherapy Research” by Amr Edris, he describes aromatherapy as, “The use of essential oils and their volatile constituents are widely to prevent and treat human disease.” Aromatherapy is said to be an alternate form of medicine that uses essential oils, which are made up of volatile plant materials.

For thousands of years bees have been a vital element to the human race survival. I’m not talking about providing us with their famous honey, although that is a plus. According to the Natural
Honeybees or Apis Mellifera as they are known to the scientific world, are very unique animals. Unlike most pollinating insects, Honeybees are highly social, and tend to live in large nests in the wild. There are three types of Honeybees that live in these nests: The Queen Bee, the Worker Bees, and the Drone Bees. The Queen is the parent of the hive. There is usually one queen per colony. Her sole purpose is to lay eggs so the colony is continuously populated (Flottum 33). She is the only able-bodied bee to lay eggs. The Worker Bees are female bees that work to carry out daily hive functions. Their jobs depend on their age and they do not live for very long, their life expectancy averages about 6 weeks during the spring and summer and about 6 months during the winter. There is five main jobs worker bees do: Nursing, Comb builders, Hive maintenance, Guarding, and foraging. These jobs go in order of age. The younger bees will be the nurse bees that will tend to the young and feed them and as well as keep them warm. The comb builders are slightly older and build comb for storage of honey or pollen and the storage of more young the queen will produce. Beeswax comes from special wax glands located underneath the Worker bee’s abdomens (Flottum 37). Hive maintenance ...

A variation of different chemicals, with diverse properties and structures, are combined in different ways to suit the different types of materials to make them fire-resistant without interfering with their intended use or performance. Since the 1970’s, FRs have been and still are widely added or applied to a big variety of major consumer products.
When he imagines things he seems to hear and see things. The Meditator realizes that he can exist without his imagination so then imagination must rely on something other then the mind. Imagination is connected to the body, which allows the mind to picture objects. With this being said the mind turns outward towards the body. He knows that his body experiences involuntary things like pain, hunger, pleasure, emotion, and thirst. He also understands that other bodies have s certain shape, movement, color, smell, and taste. The Meditator uses an example of a piece of wax coming from a honeycomb to help explain how we come to know what is really true. He first realizes what he knows about the piece of wax. He uses his senses to see the color, shape, and size of the honeycomb. He also uses his senses of taste and smell to actually know the taste of the piece of wax and the way it smells. If you place the piece of wax near a hot surface like a fire all the sensible qualities change so fast. The knowledge of the melted piece of wax cannot have come through the same senses because the properties that he has once seen have changed. He knows now that the wax is that it is extended, flexible, and changeable. He did not come to that conclusion through his senses but he didn’t come to it through his imagination either. He knows the wax has thee
