The influence of coating with aminopropyl triethoxysilane and CuO/Cu2O nanoparticles on antimicrobial activity of cotton fabrics under dark conditions
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
A novel impregnation process for the fabrication of cotton nanocomposite with strong antimicrobial activity against antibiotics-resistant bacteria and yeast was developed. The impregnation process includes the sol-gel ...
Dissimilar sintered calcium phosphate dental inserts as dentine substitutes: Shear bond strength to restorative materials
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
The application of sintered calcium phosphate dental inserts in the central part of tooth cavities can reduce amount of embedded dental composite and polymerization shrinkage of final dental fillings. The aim of this study ...
A comprehensive review of the polymer-based hydrogels with electrochemically synthesized silver nanoparticles for wound dressing applications
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
Modernization and improvement of wound dressing materials is an important topic in biomaterials and biomedicine fields, as the traditional materials are inadequate and susceptible to bacterial infections. In recent times, ...
Application of Supercritical Solvent Impregnation for Production of Zeolite Modified Starch-Chitosan Polymers with Antibacterial Properties
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
In the present study, supercritical solvent impregnation (SSI) has been applied to incorporate thymol into bio-composite polymers as a potential active packaging material. Thymol, a natural component with a proven antimicrobial ...
Sponge-like europium oxide from hollow carbon sphere as a template for an anode material for Reactive Blue 52 electrochemical degradation
(Materials Chemistry and Physics, 2021)
The textile industry is one of the major pollutants of waterbodies with effluents high in biochemical and chemical oxygen demand values, high values of total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, and low dissolved ...
A detailed UV-Vis spectral investigation of six azo dyes derived from benzoic- and cinnamic acids: experimental and theoretical insight
(Comptes Rendus Chimie, 2021)
Six donor-pi-acceptor azo dyes, with altered donor- (p-hydroxyphenyl-and naphthalene-2ol) and carboxylic based acceptor groups, were subjected to detailed solvatochromic and tautomeric investigation in different environments ...
The effect of incompletely condensed polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) on hybrid film adhesion
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) structure on the adhesion behaviour of composite films onto a metallic surface. The composite films consisted of ...
Application of waste cotton yarn as adsorbent of heavy metal ions from single and mixed solutions
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2020)
In this study, waste cotton yarn was used for the removal of Pb (II), Cd (II), Cr (III), and As (V) from aqueous solution. Adsorption of heavy metal ions was tested from single ion solutions, while competitive studies were ...
The Influence of Hydrodearomatisation Reaction Kinetics on the Modelling of Sulphur and Aromatics Removal from Diesel Fuel in an Industrial Hydrotreating Process
(Energies, 2021)
Over the years, the hydrotreating process has been considerably improved in order to facilitate the production of environmentally friendly diesel fuels by reducing sulphur and aromatics concentrations, as mandated by ...
Reuse potential of functionalized thermoplastic waste as reinforcement for thermoset polymers: Mechanical properties and erosion resistance
(SAGE Publications Ltd., 2021)
Two types of polymer waste materials, poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and polycarbonate based Colombian Resin (CR-39), were used for the designing of fully recycled composite materials. Waste PET was employed for the ...
