The effects of the synthesis parameters on the xerogels structures and on the swelling parameters of the poly(methacrylic acid) hydrogels
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2010)
Poly(methacrylic acid) hydrogels were synthesized. The effects of the synthesis parameters: the neutralization degree of methacrylic acid and the concentrations of monomer, crosslinker and initiator on the xerogels structural ...
Synthesis and characterization of silver/poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) hydrogel nanocomposite obtained by in situ radiolytic method
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
This work describes radiolytic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) within the poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) hydrogel. The hydrogel matrix was obtained by gamma irradiation-induced cross-linking, while the in ...
The formation of oxide nanoparticles on the surface of natural clinoptilolite
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
Nanoparticles of NiO, ZnO and Cu(2)O crystallize when the Ni-, Zn- and Cu-exchanged natural clinoptilolite, respectively, are dehydrated by heating in air at 550 degrees C. The dehydration of Mn-exchanged clinoptilolite ...
Short-circuit oxygen diffusion in thermally grown silica layer
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, Singapore, 2010)
Amorphous polymer-derived Si-C-N ceramics can be doped with different elements (Al, B etc.) through various pre-ceramic polymer routes. Thus, controlling of the high temperature oxidation resistance can be achieved on an ...
Influence of picosecond laser pulses on the microstructure of austenitic materials
(Springer, New York, 2011)
We investigate samples of austenitic materials - stainless steel and iron-based superalloy - which are widely used at high temperatures and pressures. The samples were exposed to Nd(3+):YAG laser pulses with a wavelength ...
Tio2/zro2 thin films synthesized by pld in low pressure n-, c- and/or o-containing gases: structural, optical and photocatalytic properties
(Inst Materials Physics, Bucharest, 2012)
Doped TiO2/ZrO2 films were obtained by Pulsed Laser Deposition method under different synthesis conditions. The onset of absorption spectra was red shifted for the films obtained in N-2 containing gas mixtures, while a ...
Surface structural heterogeneity of high power plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite coatings
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2016)
The aim of this work was to examine the dependence of the local surface structure (surface structural heterogeneity) on the local thickness (thickness uniformity) and structure properties along the thickness of hydroxyapatite ...
Influence of the gelation and calcination temperatures on physical parameters and photocatalytic activity of mesoporous titania powders synthesized by the nonhydrolytic sol-gel process
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2012)
Titania powders were synthesized by nonhydrolitic sol-gel process starting from titanium(IV)-chloride, titanium(IV)-isopropoxide and carbon-tetrachloride. Gelation was performed in solvothermal conditions, at 140 degrees ...
Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of the {yKNO(3) + (1-y)K2HPO4}(aq) system at T=298.15 K
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2012)
The osmotic coefficients of aqueous mixtures of KNO3 and K2HPO4 have been measured at T = (298.15 +/- 0.01) K by the isopiestic vapor pressure method at KNO3 ionic strength fractions y = (0.20581, 0.43631, 0.61099, and ...
Nanocomposite microfibers based on alginate and PVA hydrogels with incorporated silver nanoparticles
