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 ...
RuOx nanoparticles deposited on TiO2 nanotube arrays by ion-exchange method as electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction in acid solution
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
Nanocomposite cathodes for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) were prepared by deposition of RuOx catalyst particles on self-organized titania nanotube (TiNT) arrays of highly developed surface area, following a procedure ...
Estimation of residual strength of a crack-containing welded pressure vessel exposed to a subzero operating temperature
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
This paper presents a method for estimating the residual-strength of welded pressure vessel made of HSLA steel which contains a surface axial crack. In order to analyze the behavior of the structure, a set of specimens ...
Bioflavour production from orange peel hydrolysate using immobilized Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Springer, New York, 2013)
The rising trend of bioflavour synthesis by microorganisms is hindered by the high manufacturing costs, partially attributed to the cost of the starting material. To overcome this limitation, in the present study, dilute-acid ...
Densities and derived thermodynamic properties for the (n-heptane plus n-octane), (n-heptane plus ethanol) and (n-octane plus ethanol) systems at high pressures
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2016)
This work reports densities for the pure n-heptane, n-octane and ethanol at temperatures from (288.15 to 413.15) K and at pressures up to 60 MPa. The same properties were determined for the binary mixtures n-heptane + ...
Characterization of silver/polystyrene nanocomposites prepared by in situ bulk radical polymerization
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Nanocomposites (NCs) with different content of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) embeded in polystyrene (PS) matrix were prepared by in situ bulk radical polymerization. The nearly monodisperse Ag NPs protected with oleylamine ...
Modeling analysis of the lipid bilayer-cytoskeleton coupling in erythrocyte membrane
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2014)
Studies of thermal fluctuations in discocytes, echinocytes, and spherocytes suggest that the coupling between lipid bilayer and cytoskeleton can affect viscoelastic behavior of single erythrocyte membranes. To test this ...
Hydrodynamic modeling of downward gas-solid flow. Part II: Co-current flow
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
The one-dimensional model of accelerating turbulent downward co-current gas-solid flow of coarse particles was formulated and experimentally verified by measuring the pressure distribution along the transport tube. The ...
On the role of aniline oligomers on the corrosion protection of mild steel
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2014)
Corrosion of the mild steel electrode with electrochemically formed aniline oligomers coating in 3% NaCl has been investigated by the means of electrochemical techniques and UV-vis spectroscopy. It has been shown that ...
Influence of size scale and morphology on antibacterial properties of ZnO powders hydrothemally synthesized using different surface stabilizing agents
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2013)
Metal oxide nanoparticles represent a new class of important materials that are increasingly being developed for use in research and health-related applications. Although the antibacterial activity and efficiency of bulk ...
