The influence of Sr and Mn incorporated ions on the properties of microwave single- and two-step sintered biphasic HAP/TCP bioceramics
(Springer, New York, 2014)
The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of Sr- and Mn-doped ions on the sintering behaviors, microstructure and mechanical properties of the bioceramics processed by single- and two-step microwave sintering ...
Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of the {yK(2)SO(4) + (1-y)K2HPO4}(aq) system at T=298.15 K
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2014)
The molality-based osmotic coefficients of aqueous mixtures of K2SO4 and K2HPO4 have been measured at T = (298.15 +/- 0.01) K by the isopiestic method, at K2SO4 ionic strength fractions y = (0.21008, 0.39887, 0.60657, ...
Microwave-assisted extraction for the recovery of antioxidants from waste Equisetum arvense
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
Microwave-assisted extraction was optimised by the response surface methodology in order to enhance the extraction of polyphenols from Equisetum arvense (horsetail). Under the optimal conditions the total polyphenol content ...
Rapid cationic dye adsorption on polyphenol-extracted coffee grounds-A response surface methodology approach
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
The Box-Behnken design under the response surface methodology (RSM) with five interacting parameters (adsorbent dose, initial dye concentration, time of agitation, initial solution pH and time of the adsorbent microwave ...
Ballistic Properties of Hybrid Thermoplastic Composites with Silica Nanoparticles
(Inda, Cary, 2014)
Multi-axial aramid fabrics have a wide range of applications in the construction of composite structures for body armor. Nanoparticles, which include nanosilica, are one of the most common nanofillers for these structures. ...
Novel Bioactive Antimicrobial Lignin Containing Coatings on Titanium Obtained by Electrophoretic Deposition
(MDPI, Basel, 2014)
Hydroxyapatite (HAP) is the most suitable biocompatible material for bone implant coatings; its brittleness, however, is a major obstacle, and the reason why research focuses on creating composites with biopolymers. ...
Structure and magnetic properties of electrodeposited Ni87.3Fe11.3W1.4 alloy
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
A dark gray nanostructured coating of an alloy composed of 87.3 wt.% Ni, 11.3 wt.% Fe and 1.4 wt.% W (Ni87.3Fe11.3W1.4) was electrodeposited from an ammonia citrate bath on a titanium cathode at a current density of 500 ...
Removal of model cationic dye by adsorption onto poly(methacrylic acid)/zeolite hydrogel composites: Kinetics, equilibrium study and image analysis
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
Composites based on poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) and two types of zeolite, hydrophilic zeolite A and hydrophobic zeolite ZSM-5, were synthesized. The obtained hydrogel composites that combine well the strong interaction ...
Potential of Pleurotus ostreatus Mycelium for Selenium Absorption
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, New York, 2014)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of high selenium (Se) concentrations on morphophysiological and ultrastructural properties of Pleurotus ostreatus. Mycelium growth was good in media enriched with 5.0, 10.0, ...
The dependence of the photocatalytic activity of TiO2/carbon nanotubes nanocomposites on the modification of the carbon nanotubes
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Nanostructural TiO2/modified multi-wall carbon nanotubes photocatalysts were prepared by hydrolysis of Ti(iso-OC3H7)(4) providing chemical bonding of anatase TiO2 nanoparticles onto oxidized- or amino-functionalized ...
