Ru layers electrodeposited onto highly stable Ti2AlC substrates as cathodes for hydrogen evolution in sulfuric acid solutions
(Elsevier, 2016)
In this work, the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was studied on Ru coated Ti2AlC electrodes in 1.0 mol dm(-3) H2SO4 at 25 degrees C. Ti2AlC was found to be a highly stable substrate in sulfuric acid solutions due to the ...
Structural study of monoclinic Li2FeSiO4 by X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)
A composite powder Li2FeSiO4/C is synthesized through a solid state reaction at 750 °C. The Rietveld crystal structure refinement is done in the monoclinic P21/n space group. It is found that the crystal structure is prone ...
Influence of fatty acid on lipase-catalyzed synthesis of ascorbyl esters and their free radical scavenging capacity
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2015)
Fatty acid (FA) ascorbyl esters are recently emerging food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical additives, which can be prepared in an eco-friendly way by using lipases as catalysts. Because they are amphiphilic molecules, which ...
The functional potential of immortelle (Helichrysum italicum) based edible films reinforced with proteins and hydrogel particles
(Academic Press, 2019)
Since most studies regarding immortelle (Helichrysum italicum) are focused on the properties and composition of its essential oil, the aim of this study was to develop edible films based on immortelle water extract. Alginate ...
Kinetic models of swelling and thermal stability of silver/poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/graphene hydrogels
(Korean Society of Industrial Engineering Chemistry, 2019)
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized by in situ electrochemical reduction of Ag+ ions in poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/graphene (PVA/CHI/Gr) hydrogel matrices with different concentrations of chitosan. The ...
Adsorption Study of Arsenic Removal by Novel Hybrid Copper Impregnated Tufa Adsorbents in a Batch System
(Wiley, 2016)
Performance of a novel adsorbent, copper impregnated natural mineral tufa (T-Cu), applicable for efficient arsenic removal is presented in this study. Testing of adsorbent properties encompassed material characterization ...
Validation of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence procedure for determination of major and trace elements present in the cement based composites
(Elsevier B.V., 2019)
Adjustment and subsequent validation of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) method for cement based binders with addition of mineral raw materials (fly ash, zeolite and bentonite) was conducted. Eighteen chemical ...
Synthesis, structural characterization, DFT calculations and antiproliferative evaluation of novel spirohydantoin derivatives containing a substituted benzyl moiety
(Elsevier B.V., 2019)
Two series of cycloalkanespiro-5-hydantoins, namely cyclohexanespiro-5-hydantoins and cycloheptanespiro-5-hydantoins with a 4-substituted benzyl or a 2-(4-substituted phenyl)-2-oxoethyl group at N3 position, were synthesized ...
Biodegradation of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and medium chain length polyhydroxyalkanoate (mcl-PHA) using whole cells and cell free protein preparations of Pseudomonas and Streptomyces strains grown on waste cooking oil
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
Petrochemical plastics are generally recalcitrant to microbial degradation and accumulate in the environment. Biodegradable polymers obtained synthetically like poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) or polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), ...
Thermal analysis of polylactic acid under high CO2 pressure applied in supercritical impregnation and foaming process design
(Elsevier B.V., 2019)
Thermal properties of extrusion and injection grade polylactic acid (PLA) were analysed using high pressure differential scanning calorimetry (HP-DSC) under CO2 pressures of up to 50 MPa. The greatest depression of melting ...
