    Notes: Purpose - To outline the themes, topics and material used in a new course, Global business and sustainability, for business educators interested in integrating this emergingparadigm into their courses. Design/methodology/approach - The structure, design and reference materials for the Global business and sustainability course are reviewed. Specific challenges in designing the course are discussed. Recommendations are provided on how key frameworks developed for this course can aid in the delivery of a business course integrating sustainability concepts. Findings - Compared to a more traditional business course, in a business course integrating sustainability concepts there is greater need for delineating the relationships between institutional, industry and corporate level factors linked to sustainability issues. However, a business course developed around the principles of sustainability is also similar to any other course in the business curriculum in that it needs to demonstrate the link between competitive actions and outcomes. Finally, sustainable development and sustainability are concepts that, in principle, should appeal and apply across cultural and national boundaries. Practical implications - A useful source of information for business educators planning to integrate sustainability issues and concepts into their courses. Originality/value - This paper addresses an important emerging paradigm and offers practical advice on how to incorporate this paradigm into business curriculum.

    Notes: Azodicarbonamide has been widely used for many years as the blowing agent of choice for expansion of vinyl foams. It has been especially useful in chemically embossed flooring because the sensitivity of the blowing agent to various factors affecting its decomposition temperature permits control of the degree of expansion of the foam. Considerable work has been done by a number of investigators to elucidate these factors. Mechanisms for the decomposition of azodicarbonamide have been proposed in the literature to explain the activating or retarding effect of many compounds on the decomposition temperature. The use of Differential Scanning Calorimetry with an active reference is shown to be an extremely useful tool in determining small effects of various additives on the decomposition temperature of the blowing agent.

    Notes: Crystallinity in PVC contributes significantly to the strength and resiliency of the polymer. Two types of crystallites have been described: a primary crystallite in the virgin powder state pictured as a platelet or flat needle-like lamellar crystallite, and a secondary, fringed micellar crystallite from melts or solutions. Both crystallites create loose, crosslinking networks. The secondary crystallite forms when plastisol melts are cooled or solutions are gelled. Crystallites exert a major effect on rheological properties. The thermal destruction of the primary crystallite networks in the melt phase results in a decrease in elastic modulus. Cooling from the fused state creates secondary crystallites that affect tensile and elongation.

    Notes: Surface defects in the form of craters have been a sporadic problem for manufacturers of films and coatings made from PVC plastisols. Examination and analysis of plastisols and films from two manufacturers have led to the conclusion that frequently such defects are caused by contamination of one or more of the plastisol components by silicone oil. Silicone oil is immiscible in commonly used plasticizers such as dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and can coalesce in mixing vats or pick up reservoirs to form droplets or pools of oil on the surface of the plastisol. Distribution of the droplets onto the substrate with the plastisol can cause craters to form when the oil dissipates into the melt during fusion.
