(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Sustainable development as a concept that aims to enhance the quality of life without affecting environment has been in focus in European policies since the last decade of 20th century. The objectives of EU Sustainable ...
Preparation and characterization of novel P(HEA/IA) hydrogels for Cd2+ ion removal from aqueous solution
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2015)
Series of novel hydrogels based on 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) and itaconic acid (IA), P(HEA/IA) copolymers, were prepared by free radical cross-linking copolymerization and investigated as potential adsorbents for Cd2+ ...
CdS quantum dots sensitized TiO2 nanotubes by matrix assisted pulsed laser evaporation method
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Within this study a matrix assisted pulsed laser evaporation technique was employed for deposition of CdS quantum dots onto TiO2 nanotubes. The number of laser pulses and laser fluence were varied to control the amount of ...
Emerging contaminants in sediment core from the Iron Gate I Reservoir on the Danube River
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2019)
The Iron Gate I Reservoir is the largest impoundment on the Danube River. It retains gt 50% of the incoming total suspended solids load and the associated organic contaminants. In the sediment core of the Iron Gate I ...
The antimicrobial efficiency of silver activated sorbents
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2015)
This study is focused on the surface modifications of the materials that are used for antimicrobial water treatment. Sorbents of different origin were activated by Ag+-ions. The selection of the most appropriate materials ...
Sonophotocatalytic degradation of dye CI Acid Orange 7 by TiO2 and Ag nanoparticles immobilized on corona pretreated polypropylene non-woven fabric
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
This study discusses the possibility of using corona pre-treated polypropylene (PP) non-woven fabric as a support for immobilization of colloidal TiO2 and Ag nanoparticles in order to remove dye C.I. Acid Orange 7 from ...
Pectin-polyvinylpyrrolidone films: A sustainable approach to the development of biobased packaging materials
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
In this work, the new biodegradable blend films composed of natural polymer pectin and synthetic polymer polyvinylpyrrolidone were obtained through casting process. The concentration of glycerol in all formulations was ...
Improvement of mechanical properties and antibacterial activity of crosslinked electrospun chitosan/poly (ethylene oxide) nanofibers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
In this study conditions for green crosslinking with citric acid of chitosan/PEO (polyethylene oxide) nanofibers were evaluated. The thermal in situ crosslinking enabled penetration of crosslinking agent into the matrix ...
Influence of different pore-forming agents on wollastonite microstructures and adsorption capacities
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
In this study, porous macro- and micro-cellular wollastonite-based ceramics was synthesized. A ceramic precursor, methylhydrocyclosiloxane, together with micro-sized CaCO3, was used as a starting material. After 20 min of ...
