Functionalization of polyester fabrics with alginates and TiO2 nanoparticles
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
This study was aimed to investigate the possibility of engineering the multifunctional textile nanocomposite material based on the polyester fabric modified with natural polysaccharide alginate and colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles. ...
Biodegradation of cotton and cotton/polyester with Ag/TiO2 nanoparticles in soil
(Carbohydrate Polymers, 2017)
This study discusses the biodegradation behavior of cotton and cotton/PET fabrics impregnated with Ag/TiO2 nanoparticles in soil. Biodegradation behavior was evaluated by standard test method ASTM 5988-03 based on determination ...
Acetylation of cellulose – Another pathway of natural cellulose aging during library storage of books and papers
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022)
Gaseous acetic acid is formed under conditions of storage of historic paper objects. Its presence not only promotes hydrolytic cleavage of cellulose, but also causes acetylation of the cellulosic material to very small ...
Synthesis and antimicrobial properties of Zn-mineralized alginate nanocomposites
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
New bioactive and antimicrobial biomaterials were produced by alginate-mediated biomineralization with Zn-mineral phase. The synthesis procedure is simple, cost-effective and resulted in. two different Zn-mineralized ...
Mineralized agar-based nanocomposite films: Potential food packaging materials with antimicrobial properties
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
New mineralized, agar-based nanocomposite films (Zn-carbonate and Zn-phosphate/agar) were produced by a combination of in situ precipitation and a casting method. The presence of minerals significantly influenced the ...
Stability of TEMPO-oxidized cotton fibers during natural aging
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Stability of cotton fibers oxidized by the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO)-mediated system during natural aging was monitored; the oxidized and five-year-aged fibers were characterized in terms of ...
Pectin-based nanocomposite aerogels for potential insulated food packaging application
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Environmental-friendly pectin-TiO2 nanocomposite aerogels were prepared via sol-gel process and subsequent drying under supercritical conditions. The first step includes dissolution of pectin in water, addition of proper ...
In situ chitosan gelation initiated by atmospheric plasma treatment
(Elsevier Ltd., 2014)
This work reports on the feasibility of atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma as a novel synthetic pathway for the liquid phase gelation of chitosan. The DBD plasma chitosan gelation process did not ...
Chitosan microbeads for encapsulation of thyme (Thymus serpyllum L.) polyphenols
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
In this work chitosan microbeads were prepared by emulsion technique and loaded with thyme polyphenols by diffusion from an external aqueous solution of Thymus serpyllum L. The effects of concentrations of chitosan (1.5-3% ...
Chitosan contribution on wool treatments with enzyme
(Elsevier Ltd., 2008)
In a previous research work, it was observed that the application of biopolymer chitosan (CHT) on wool fabrics before the enzymatic treatment promotes an increase of the weight loss. In order to deep on the role played by ...
