Peach is a climacteric highly-perishable fruit whose post-harvest preservation relies largely on cold storage. The combination of the last with other technologies allows to extend the shelf life of this product. One alternative is the utilization of salicylic acid, a natural compound involved in many physiological phenomena such as resistance against diseases and ripening. Considering these facts, the objective of the present work was to evaluate the effect of pre-harvest application of salicylic acid solutions on the quality of ‘Chimarrita’ peaches during post-harvest cold storage. The experiment was conducted at the Federal University of Pelotas/RS, in the campus of Capão do Leão/RS - Brazil. The application of salicylic acid solutions was performed by direct pulverization on the fruits, 30 days prior to harvest. The concentrations were: 0,0 (control); 1,0; 1,5; and 2,0 mM. After harvest, the fruits were stored in a cold chamber at 1,0 ± 0,5°C and 85-90% RH, for 30 days. The analyses were performed at the following cold storage periods (plus 2 days at room temperature of 20°C to all treatments, in order to simulate commercialization conditions): 10 (+2) days; 20 (+2) days; e 30 (+2) days. The variables evaluated were: mass loss (%); flesh firmness (N); DA index; color (L, a*, b* and hue angle); wooliness incidence (%); rot incidence (%); total soluble solids (°Brix); pH; titrable acidity (% of organic acids); and ratio. The salicylic acid doses and/or the cold storage periods had significant effects on all the evaluated parameters. For most of the parameters analyzed, the intermediate dosis of 1mM (and also 1,5mM) of salicilic acid showed the most promising results. Therefore, the application of salicylic acid solutions 30 days prior to harvest is a technique which can be combined to cold storage in order to shift the quality and the shelf-life of ‘Chimarrita’ peaches.

In this paper, meso-porous MCM-41 was synthesized at room temperature using cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as the template agent. Then MCM-41/unsatura-ted polyester resin (UPR) materials were prepared by in-situ polymerization with the meso-porous MCM-41. MCM-41/UPR in-situ composites were prepared by roller milling and molding processes. Effects of meso-porous MCM-41 on rheological properties and wear resistance of the MCM-41/UPR composites have been investigated. It is shown that MCM-41 has a diameter in range of 4-5 nm and the pores are highly ordered. MCM-41 can improve the rheological properties and wear resistance of the composites. When MCM-41 content is 2%, the mass abrasion loss is decreased by 37.4%.

A method of oxidative mineralization of the salicylic acid and its derivatives as well as medicinal products containing salicylic acid as the active ingredient was investigated. Destruction of the organic compounds is possible both in the electrolyte under the oxidant, electrochemically formed in situ in the sulphuric acid solutions, and at the anode so. Simultaneously, at the cathode, reduction of the zinc ions, contained in a number of medicinal products, is possible. Final products of the oxidation are simple non-toxic organic compounds, carbon dioxide, and water. This process is the most effective in the 40% sulphuric acid at the current density of 0.5–0.8 A/cm2 and the temperature of 30–50 °C.
