Glass transition and polymer dynamics in silver/poly(methyl methacrylate) nanocomposites
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
Dynamic mechanical-thermal analysis (DMTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermally stimulated depolarization currents (TSDC) and, mainly, broadband dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) were employed to ...
Multifunctional PES fabrics modified with colloidal Ag and TiO2 nanoparticles
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2011)
This study is aimed to highlight the possibility of engineering the multifunctional textile nanocomposite material based on the polyester (PES) fabric modified with colloidal Ag and TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs). The effects ...
Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of the {yKCl + (1-y)K2HPO4}(aq) system at T=298.15 K
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2011)
The osmotic coefficients of aqueous mixtures of KCl and K2HPO4 have been measured at T = (298.15 +/- 0.01) K by the isopiestic vapor pressure method over the range of ionic strengths from (2.3700 to 11.250) mol . kg(-1) ...
Moisture absorption capacity of polyamide 6,6 fabrics surface functionalised by chitosan-based hydrogel finishes
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2011)
The present study aims at investigating the moisture absorption capacity of polyamide 6,6 fabrics when their surface is functionalised by chitosan-based hydrogels. For the finishing procedure, bulk hydrogels of chitosan ...
Complexation of amidated pectin with poly(itaconic acid) as a polycarboxylic polymer model compound
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
Complexes based on amidated pectin (AP) and poly(itaconic acid) (PIA) were prepared by casting films from solutions of AP and PIA in different ratios with the pectin amount ranging from 10% to 90% by mass. The complexes ...
Durability of sulfur concrete in various aggressive environments
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
Durability of sulfur concrete with different fillers, as well as Portland cement concrete, was tested in the solutions of HCl, H(2)SO(4), and NaCl. Regarding mass changes, in the solutions of HCl and H(2)SO(4) sulfur ...
Solvent effects on the structure-property relationship of anticonvulsant hydantoin derivatives: A solvatochromic analysis
(Biomed Central Ltd, London, 2011)
Considering the pharmaceutical importance of hydantoins, a set of 25 derivatives of phenytoin, nirvanol and 5-methyl-5-phenylhydantoin, the lipophilicities of which were gradually increased by the introduction of different ...
Thermomechanical Properties and Cavitation Resistance of a High-Alumina Low-Cement Castable
(Wiley-Blackwell, Malden, 2011)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanical properties and level of cavitation damage to alumina-based low-cement castable. The effects of temperature treatment on some of the mechanical properties (strength, ...
A highly efficient diastereoselective synthesis of alpha-isosalicin by maltase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
In this report, alpha-isosalicin, a potent anticoagulant and skin whitening agent, was synthesized by a highly efficient chemoselective and diastereoselective reaction, catalyzed by maltase from bakers' yeast (Saccharomyces ...
Experimental investigation and thermodynamic prediction of the Au-Cu-Sb phase diagram
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2011)
Phase diagram of the ternary Au-Cu-Sb system was investigated experimentally by DTA and SEM-EDS methods and analytically by CALPHAD method. The liquids projection, invariant equilibrium, several vertical sections and ...
