thread_title:  E number 

message: FTA: Because the resulting phosphate residue has an off-taste, SAPP is usually used in very sweet cakes which mask the off-taste.
Regular self-leavening flour, which is used to bake bread, non-sweet cakes, other cakes, certain cookies, pancakes, &c. and which probably accounts for most of the use of SAPP, contains only wheat flour and baking powder and no sugar. Although for some recipes sugar is added to the mix, this is by no means standard and I've never experienced any nasty off-taste, not even when using it myself without any sugar at all. Unfortunately I am at the moment unable to check the cited source but I strongly suspect that it either doesn't say what the article says (maybe it's only true at particularly high concentrations?) or the source itself doesn't really know what it's talking about (most sugar is added to products because people prefer sweetness).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.114.146.117 (talk) 19:32, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Disulfur decafluoride

message: Why is disulfur decafluoride considered as very flammable by the hazard diamond? Surely it may react with oxygen to form (SF5)2O or (SF5)2O2, but this reaction is neither highly exothermic nor it contains chain reactions like combustion reactions of organic molecules, so it shouldn't be a violent reaction.

Talk:National Multicultural Greek Council

There are no sources at all and only one external link in the infobox. The small paragraph that is written reads like a brochure and contains few facts or historical information. The lists make up the main part of the article but I believe they need some re-working as well, most notably the number of chapters of each fraternity and sorority as well as their locations (which I would think is more important than where they were founded as founding chapters may go inactive).

Template talk:Greek Umbrella Organizations

message: Because it is not a GREEK umbrella organization. Even professional fraternities such as Alpha Phi Omega have pledging. Honor societies do not. Because honor societies are invitation-only, they do not have recruitment events, and that goes along with the lack of pledging. 
There was a time when I was dumb enough to buy arguments otherwise. Then I finally managed to pledge (Alpha Phi Omega, in fact) as a graduate student. It made me realize that "Beta Beta Beta" and others like it have misleading names. An organization with no pledging (IE probationary initial membership) has no right to a Greek letter acronym for its name, and the fact that honor societies do that is a sin.

Talk:ECTFE

message: Yes, it ECTFE has low permeability for a fluoropolymer, but "the best"?  Better than PVF?  From "Permeability Properties of Plastics and Elastomers" and manufacturer datasheets for the two products we see the following:
cm³-mm/m²-day-atm
H2: PVF = 22.9@24°C, ECTFE = 108@25°C
He: PVF = 59.1@24°C, ECTFE = 1798@25°C
CO2: PVF = 4,4@24°C, ECTFE = 90@15°C
N2: PVF = 0.1@24°C, ECTFE = 1.23@25°C or 10.0@25°C (sources vary)
O2: PVF = 1.3@24°C, ECTFE = 9,9@25°C or 45.6°25°C (sources vary)
Water permeability seems to be about the same, though.  But in general, PVF is about on par with PET.  ECTFE... isn't.  Even though it's orders of magnitude better than, say, PTFE.
Also... the article claims that ECTFE's permeability properties are a consequence of the size of the chlorine atom.  Is that... actually the case? -- Rei (talk) 03:54, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

While it is true that the lady in question (Anna Peters by name) bore the nickname "rose-fingered Eos" and may have inspired the naming choice, the actual etymology is based on the Greekt term eos and its association to  red color. 138.246.3.168 (talk) 14:03, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Ethyl tert-butyl ether

message: *Biofuel Technology Handbook 2007 makes two claims about ETBE: 
: Ethanol is also increasingly used as an oxygenate additive for standard petrol, as a replacement for methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE). MTBE is usually mixed with petrol as an additive to improve the octane number. Because MTBE has toxic properties and is responsible for considerable groundwater and soil contamination, MTBE is more and more frequently replaced by ETBE (ethyl tertiary butyl ether). ETBE is produced from bioethanol and may be mixed in maximum quantities of 15 percent with petrol.
: Nevertheless, some results (WWI 2006 p. 153) point out that using ethanol to make ETBE results in even greater GHG savings than blending ethanol directly with gasoline. This is because ETBE replaces MTBE, which has relatively high energy demand, whereas ethanol replaces gasoline, which requires less energy for production than does MTBE.
GHG = green house gas 
WWI = Worldwatch Institute 2006: Biofuels for Transportation, Global Potential and Implications for Sustainable Agriculture and Energy in the 21st Century.
