Physico-chemical, structural, and adsorption properties of amino-modified starch derivatives for the removal of (in)organic pollutants from aqueous solutions
(Elsevier B.V., 2023)
In this study, an environmentally sustainable process of crystal violet, congo red, methylene blue, brilliant green, Pb2+, Cd2+, and Zn2+ ions adsorption from aqueous solutions onto amino-modified starch derivatives was ...
Production of prebiotic enriched maple syrup through enzymatic conversion of sucrose into fructo-oligosaccharides
(Elsevier Ltd., 08-2024)
Maple syrup, a popular natural sweetener has a high content of sucrose, whose consumption is linked to different health issues such as obesity and diabetes. Hence, within this paper, the conversion of sucrose to prebiotics ...
Impact of weathering processes on n-alkane pattern in badlands
(Elsevier, 2023)
The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of weathering processes on the distribution of n-alkanes in
unweathered and weathered samples of badland material. Organic matter (OM) of both the weathered and
unweathered ...
alpha-Tricalcium phosphate/fluorapatite based composite cements: Synthesis, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Composite cements based on alpha-tricalcium phosphate (alpha-TCP) and nanostructured fluorapatite (FAp), alpha-TCP/FAp, appropriate for dental usage as root canal filling material, have been prepared with the improved ...
Cornstarch aerogels with thymol, citronellol, carvacrol, and eugenol prepared by supercritical CO2- assisted techniques for potential biomedical applications
(Elsevier Ltd., 05-2024)
This study focuses on the development of bioactive materials using environmentally friendly techniques, renewable, biocompatible, and biodegradable polysaccharide, as well as natural bioactive compounds (NBCs) found in ...
Structural and morphological characterization of iron-doped sol-gel derived mullite powders
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The structural and morphological properties of iron-doped mullite powders are the subject of the present study. The powders of undoped and iron-doped mullite in the composition range of 3-15 wt% Fe2O3 were synthesized by ...
Electrokinetic and sorption properties of hydrogen peroxide treated flax fibers (Linum usitatissimum L.)
(Cellulose, 2021)
Hydrogen peroxide represents an ecologically and economically acceptable agent for bleaching of flax fibers. The influence of hydrogen peroxide treatment under different conditions, i.e. hydrogen peroxide concentrations ...
Hybrid acrylic nanocomposites with excellent transparency and hardness/toughness balance
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
The composite nanofibers were used as reinforcement in acrylic polymer for the overall enhancement of thermo-mechanical properties, adhesion between fibers and matrix, and fracture toughness of the final nanocomposite since ...
Structural insight into the fiber dyeing ability: Pyridinium arylazo pyridone dyes
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021)
Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of nine 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-3-pyridinium-2-pyridone based azo dyes, wherein, eight of them being novel. Used building blocks ensured water solubility of six dyes and made ...
Spatial distribution, radiological risk assessment and positive matrix factorization of gamma-emitting radionuclides in the sediment of the Boka Kotorska Bay
(Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2021)
Surface sediment from the Boka Kotorska Bay (Adriatic Sea) was analyzed for the content of technogenic cesium (137Cs) and naturally occurring (40K, 226Ra, 232Th, 238U) radionuclides. The activity concentrations of the ...
