  2. Peroxyacetyl nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxyacetyl_nitrate

    Peroxyacetyl nitrate is a peroxyacyl nitrate.It is a secondary pollutant present in photochemical smog. [1] It is thermally unstable and decomposes into peroxyethanoyl radicals and nitrogen dioxide gas. [2]

  3. Polyacrylonitrile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyacrylonitrile

    Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is a synthetic, semicrystalline organic polymer resin, with the linear formula (CH 2 CHCN) n. [2] Almost all PAN resins are copolymers with acrylonitrile as the main monomer.

  4. Peroxyacyl nitrates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxyacyl_nitrates

    The general structural formula of a peroxyacyl nitrate peroxy acetyl nitrate, the most common PAN. In organic chemistry, peroxyacyl nitrates (also known as Acyl peroxy nitrates, APN or PANs) are powerful respiratory and eye irritants present in photochemical smog.

  5. Kapustinskii equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kapustinskii_equation

    Finally, Kapustinskii noted that the Madelung constant, M, was approximately 0.88 times the number of ions in the empirical formula. [2] The derivation of the later form of the Kapustinskii equation followed similar logic, starting from the quantum chemical treatment in which the final term is 1 − ⁠ d / r 0 ⁠ where d is as defined above.

  6. Frenet–Serret formulas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frenet–Serret_formulas

    The first Frenet-Serret formula holds by the definition of the normal N and the curvature κ, and the third Frenet-Serret formula holds by the definition of the torsion τ. Thus what is needed is to show the second Frenet-Serret formula. Since T, N, B are orthogonal unit vectors with B = T × N, one also has T = N × B and N = B × T.

  7. Defined benefit pension plan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defined_benefit_pension_plan

    The benefit in a defined benefit pension plan is determined by a formula that can incorporate the employee's pay, years of employment, age at retirement, and other factors. A simple example is a dollars times service plan design that provides a certain amount per month based on the time an employee works for a company. For example, a plan ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levonorgestrel

    Levonorgestrel is a hormonal medication which is used in a number of birth control methods. [3] [7] It is combined with an estrogen to make combination birth control pills. [8]As an emergency birth control, sold under the brand names Plan B One-Step and Julie, among others, it is useful within 72 hours of unprotected sex.

  9. Pantothenate kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantothenate_kinase

    Pantothenate kinase (EC 2.7.1.33, PanK; CoaA) is the first enzyme in the Coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthetic pathway. It phosphorylates pantothenate (vitamin B 5) to form 4'-phosphopantothenate at the expense of a molecule of adenosine triphosphate ().
