Methoxypropylamino cyclohexenylidene ethoxyethylcyanoacetate. Methoxypropylamino cyclohexenylidene ethoxyethylcyanoacetate (INCI) is an organic compound used in sunscreens to absorb UVA radiation. It is marketed as Mexoryl 400 by L'Oréal. MCE has an absorption maximum of 385 nm, which is in the long-wave UVA range (UVA1, 360−400 nm). Like Mexoryl SX (Ecamsule) and Mexoryl XL (Drometrizole trisiloxane), it is used exclusively in products manufactured by L'Oréal. MCE was developed by L'Oréal and BASF.

Properties 
MCE is a yellow solid in the form of powder or small chunks. At 25°C, it is soluble in phenoxyethanol, dimethyl capramide, ethoxydiglycol, dimethyl isosorbide, and alcohol (ethanol), which are ingredients used in cosmetics.

It is considered a cyclic merocyanine.

Safety and regulation 
In 2019, MCE was approved for use up to a maximum concentration of 3% as a UV filter in cosmetics in the EU. It is not currently recognised or approved by the FDA for use in cosmetics in the US.

He is a professor of materials science & engineering, and, by courtesy, of mechanical engineering within the McCormick School of Engineering, and serves as co-director of the mechanical engineering–materials science & engineering Master of Science program.

Chung was raised in Hong Kong, and holds a B.S. and an M.S. in physics from the University of Hong Kong, as well as a Ph.D. in physics from the University of California, Berkeley. He joined Northwestern, after obtaining his doctorate; at Northwestern, he previously served as department chair of materials science & engineering (1992–1998).

His research includes work on energy efficiency, surface engineering, and tribology. In 2016, Chung, Jiaxing Huang, and other co-authors published an article in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences describing how a lubricant containing crumpled graphene could provide higher lubrication performance than other lubricant oils. In 2017, Chung was featured in the Northwestern Engineering magazine for his research on improving energy efficiency. The article describes a development by Chung and others on reducing friction within automobiles. Their development, a lubricant additive, "can reduce friction by up to 70 percent and wear by up to 90 percent compared to conventional lubricant counterparts." In 2019, Chung was interviewed by Tribology & Lubrication Technology. In his interview, he expressed sentiment that communication skills are a vital part of career tribology, and are not emphasized enough in education. 

In 2002, Chung, Leon M. Keer, and Kornel Ehmann won the Innovative Research Award, conferred by the tribology division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. For his contributions to surface engineering and coatings, Chung received the 2024 R.F. Bunshah Award from the Advanced Surface Engineering Division, American Vacuum Society.

Steveston Tram Museum. The Steveston Tram Museum is a rail museum in Steveston, BC. The museum houses one of seven remaining interurban streetcars that previously operated as part of the BC Electric Railway.

History 
In the 1890s, the Canadian Pacific Railway sought to create a company to serve Lulu Island. In 1902 a light-rail line was created that ran from Vancouver to Steveston. The route proved to be unprofitable for CPR, as it was cheaper for the canneries of Steveston to ship directly via the ocean rather than moving them to and shipping from Vancouver. Thus, the line was leased to the B.C. Electric Railway in 1905. The BCER created a substation at Marpole to power the new electric line. Passenger service launched on July 4, 1905 and ran until February 28, 1958.

Tram car 1220 was built in 1912 by the St. Louis Car Company. The train was brought to BC and used in the Marpole to Steveston line of the BCER.

Of the 28 1200-class trams created for the BCER by the St. Louis Car Company, 7 exist in various states of repair. Car number 1225 is operating as a heritage streetcar at the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society in Surrey, BC, and car number 1223 is on display at the Burnaby Village Museum.

The museum opened on May 3, 2013. The museum was built around original tracks of the BCER, and stands across the street from the now gone Steveston station. After three years of restoration, costing $400,000 and funded by the city of Richmond, the restored tram was put on display in 2018.

Green factory. A green factory, zero impact factory or green plant is an industrial manufacturing facility designed to minimize its environmental impact and recover resources. Green factories focus on energy efficiency, waste reduction, and the use of renewable energy sources to promote ecological responsibility. Many of these green factories gain their certification of minimal environmental impact through BREEAM.

Green factories are operational currently mostly in the European Union in the automotive industry. Automotive manufacturers such as Porsche and Volkswagen have envisions to construct green factories, and BMW has already constructed the BMW Green Plant in Leipzig, Germany. In the United States, companies are also creating green factories, such as Panasonic, whose green electric battery manufacturing factories in De Soto, Kansas will be run on mostly wind and solar power.
