Influence of Potassium Permanganate Oxidation on Structure and Properties of Cotton
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2022)
Cotton yarn was oxidized using the various concentrations and pH of potassium permanganate solutions, in order to investigate the influence of oxidation parameters on chemical, mechanical and sorption properties of cotton. ...
Irradiated fig pomace pyrochar as a promising and sustainable sterilized sorbent for water pollutant removal
(Elsevier Ltd, 2024)
Irradiated fig pomace pyrochar (IrrPyrFP) is noteworthy as a novel sterilized low-cost sorbent of BTEX, pesticides, and Pb2+ ions. It was produced by applying pyrolysis treatment followed by gamma irradiation modification ...
Closing the loop: As(V) adsorption onto goethite impregnated coal-combustion fly ash as integral building materials
(Journal of Cleaner Production, 2021)
Fly and bottom ash(es) are the most abundant generated by-products of coal combustion in thermal power plants. This investigation offers a sustainable solution of a double and circular use of industrial waste material in ...
Characterization of antifungal citrus pectin-based films for potential agricultural application
(Elsevier B.V., 2023)
In this study, pectin-based films blended with alginate and crosslinked with copper ions for potential application in agriculture were investigated. Copper was selected as crosslinking agent, due to its key role as a plant ...
Valorization of unexploited artichoke leaves dust for obtaining of extracts rich in natural antioxidants
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2021)
This study has developed an improved and fast microwave-assisted procedure for extraction of high yields of natural antioxidants from artichoke leaves dust. The material is derived as an abundant residue remained after ...
Development of comfortable and eco-friendly cellulose based textiles with improved sustainability
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Considering specific mechanical, hygienic and protective properties of hemp, as well as its positive
sustainability aspects, the raising role of hemp fibres in the textile sector can be expected. The limited
deformability ...
Effects of selected inorganic chemical activators on properties and hydration mechanism of high volume fly ash (HVFA) binders
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023)
Effects of Na2SO4, Na2CO3, and Na2SiO3 on setting time, compressive strength (up to 90 days), and hydration mechanism of binders with high volume (70 wt%, HVFA binders) of fly ash (FA) were investigated. Before chemical ...
alpha-Tricalcium phosphate/fluorapatite based composite cements: Synthesis, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Composite cements based on alpha-tricalcium phosphate (alpha-TCP) and nanostructured fluorapatite (FAp), alpha-TCP/FAp, appropriate for dental usage as root canal filling material, have been prepared with the improved ...
Goat milk powders enriched with grape pomace seed extract: Physical and techno-functional properties
(Elsevier B.V., 2024)
This study aimed to evaluate the physical (particle size and ζ-potential) and techno-functional properties (emulsifying and foaming) of goat milk powders enriched with grape pomace seed extract (TME), as promising food ...
Tailoring the properties of waterborne polyurethanes by incorporating different content of poly(dimethylsiloxane)
(Progress in Organic Coatings, 2021)
A series of novel waterborne polyurethanes (WBPUs) was synthesized using alpha,omega-dihydroxypropyl poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS), isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), 2,2-bis-(hydroxymethyl) propionic acid (DMPA) and triethylamine ...
