Foam glasses made from green bottle glass and sugar beet factory lime as a foaming agent
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023)
Great waste production alongside limited natural resources represents huge environmental and economic problems worldwide. Sustainable waste management and industrial production can reduce pollution and gain some economic ...
Exposure Factors in Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metal(loid)s in Soil and Sediment
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Heavy metal(loid)s (HMs) play an important role in economic development since they are used in various branches of industry. However, all industrial activities emit HMs into the environment, where they are no longer useful ...
The Removal of Phosphate from Aqueous Solutions by Sepiolite/ZrO2 Composites: Adsorption Behavior and Mechanism
(MDPI, 2023)
The sepiolite/ZrO2 composites were prepared by sepiolite (Sep) modification with zirconium propoxide in toluene at room temperature for 24 h (Sep–ZrI) or 95 °C for 4 h (sample Sep–ZrII). The efficiency of the obtained ...
Black Pine (Pinus nigra) Essential Oil as a Green Corrosion Inhibitor for Carbon Steel
(MDPI, 2023)
In this work, the essential oil of black pine (Pinus nigra J. F. Arnold) was used for the first time as a natural, ecological, and sustainable corrosion inhibitor for the acid cleaning of carbon steel. The essential oil ...
Optical switching of bent-core liquid crystals with azocinnamoyl units
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2023)
We report on observations of optical switching in bent-core liquid crystals possessing azocinnamoyl groups in both elongated side arms. UV-activated switching was observed in two of the synthesised materials, both of which ...
Distribution of radionuclides and associated radiological risk assessment of soils from Niška Banja, Serbia
(Akademiai Kiado ZRt.Springer, 2024)
The activity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K were determined in 43 soil samples collected from 0 to 10 cm and 10 to 50 cm depths of Niška Banja region, Serbia, using a low background gamma spectroscopy with 3″ × 3″ ...
Mechanical properties of acrylate matrix composite reinforced with manganese-aluminum layered double hydroxide
(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2023)
Acrylate polymers are used in several applications such as dentistry, medicine, and industry. The modification of their properties using the reinforcement is of key importance for the possible applications. Layered double ...
Revalorization of Cotton and Cotton/Elastane Knitted Fabric Waste
(Korean Fiber Society, 2023)
The present paper demonstrates a simple way for revalorization of differently softened cotton and cotton/elastane knitted fabric waste collected from the textile industry. Such waste was used as an adsorbent for Congo Red ...
Easy, Flexible and Standardizable Anti-Nascent Biofilm Activity Assay to Assess Implant Materials
(MDPI, 2023)
Medical implants have improved the quality of life of many patients. However, surgical intervention may eventually lead to implant microbial contamination. The aims of this research were to develop an easy, robust, ...
Ability of Deep Eutectic Solvent Modified Oat Straw for Cu(II), Zn(II), and Se(IV) Ions Removal
(MDPI, 2023)
In the proposed study, agro-waste biomass oat straw (OS) was considered a potential adsorbent for Cu(II), Zn(II), and Se(IV) removal from aqueous solutions. In order to obtain material with better adsorption abilities, the ...
