Effect of the Degree of Conversion on Mechanical Properties and Monomer Elution from Self-, Dual- and Light-Cured Core Composites
(Materials, 2021)
The objective of this work was to measure and correlate the degree of conversion (DC), mechanical properties and monomer elution from self-, dual- and light-cured core composites. Five samples of each of the following ...
Utilization of supercritical CO2 in bioactive principles isolation from Helichrysum italicum and their adsorption on selected fabrics
(Journal of Supercritical Fluids, 2021)
Helichrysum italicum (Roth) G. Don fil., Asteraceae, possesses numerous secondary plant metabolites with a wide range of biological activities. Yet, data on the potential of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) in their ...
Nonlinear frequency response analysis: a recent review and perspectives
(Current Opinion in Electrochemistry, 2021)
The nonlinear frequency response analysis (NFRA) can be seen as an extension of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. NFRA gives a full and detailed representation of the system response and can establish a connection ...
A universal transportation model for reverse osmosis systems
(Computers & Chemical Engineering, 2021)
This paper presents a new transport model for reverse osmosis (RO) systems, which combines irreversible thermodynamics, together with solution-diffusion theory. The simplifications adopted by the classical theory for ...
Development of advanced floating poly(lactic acid)-based materials for colored wastewater treatment
(Journal of Supercritical Fluids, 2021)
The release of industrial wastewater into the ecosystem prompted our research on the development of an efficient and biodegradable material that can be used for wastewater treatment. We optimized preparation of porous ...
Oxidized Hemp Fibers with Simultaneously Increased Capillarity and Reduced Moisture Sorption as Suitable Textile Material for Advanced Application in Sportswear
(Fibers and Polymers, 2021)
Applications of hemp fibers, as a promising natural material in the textile field, mostly require improved fiber properties. In this paper, the oxidation of hemp fibers with potassium permanganate was applied to reduce the ...
Mucoadhesive Gelatin Buccal Films with Propranolol Hydrochloride: Evaluation of Mechanical, Mucoadhesive, and Biopharmaceutical Properties
(Pharmaceutics, 2021)
This study processes and characterizes propranolol hydrochloride/gelatin mucoadhesive buccal films. Two types of gelatin are used: Gelatin from porcine skin, type A (GA), and gelatin from bovine skin (GB). The influence ...
A CaO/zeolite-based catalyst obtained from waste chicken eggshell and coal fly ash for biodiesel production
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The present paper is focused on the development of a new environment-friendly methanolysis catalyst completely based on waste materials: lignite coal fly ash and chicken eggshells. A novel catalyst based on CaO supported ...
A Three-electrode gas arrester for low voltage isolation coordination
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
This work aims is to design, fabricate and test a gas surge arrester with optimum characteristics based on testing the influence of all parameters that affect the characteristics of gas surge arresters for the coordination ...
Potential application of low molecular weight excipients for amorphization and dissolution enhancement of carvedilol
(International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2021)
In this study, four low molecular weight (LMW) excipients, tryptophan (TRY), phenylalanine (PHE), lysine (LYS) and saccharin (SAC) were evaluated as co-formers to generate co-amorphous systems (CAMS) by ball milling with ...
