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 ...
Adventitious organogenesis via intermediate callus formation in representatives of Prunus, Pyrus and Rubus genera
(Ars Docendi, Bucharest, 2014)
The paper presents evaluation of the influence of 30 combinations of plant growth regulators (PGRs) on induction of adventitious organogenesis from leaves of in vitro propagated shoots in 5 genotypes: sour cherry 'Cacanski ...
A comprehensive approach to in vitro functional evaluation of Ag/alginate nanocomposite hydrogels
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
In this work, we present a comprehensive approach to evaluation of alginate microbeads with included silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) at the concentration range of 0.3-5 mM for potential biomedical use by combining cytotoxicity, ...
The iron(III)-modified natural zeolitic tuff as an adsorbent and carrier for selenium oxyanions
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
Se(IV) and Se(VI) anions are the dominant species of Se existing in aqueous systems. In this study, the iron(III)-modified natural zeolitic tuff (Fe-CLI) from the Serbian deposit Zlatokop has been investigated as an adsorbent ...
Effect of Deposition Current Density and Annealing Temperature on the Microstructure, Hardness and Magnetic Properties of Nanostructured Nickel-Iron-Tungsten Alloys
(Electrochemical Soc Inc, Pennington, 2014)
Nanostructured nickel-iron-tungsten alloy coatings were electrodeposited from an ammonia citrate bath on steel and copper substrates at current densities in the range of 50 to 300 mA cm(-2). The contents of iron and tungsten ...
Waste animal fats as feedstocks for biodiesel production
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Biodiesel, an alternate and ecologically acceptable substitute for the conventional fuel, is usually produced from a wide range of edible vegetable oils, which are normally used for human consumption and whose prices are ...
The effect of trace elements on wheat straw degradation by Trametes gibbosa
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
The aim of the study was comparative analysis of ligninolytic enzyme productions of Trametes gibbosa and its ability to degrade wheat straw, as well as effect of trace elements on those processes. Mn-oxidizing peroxidases ...
Electrospun Poly(vinylbutyral)/silica Composite Fibres for Impregnation of Aramid Fabrics
(Materiale Plastice, 2014)
The poly (vinyl butyral)/silica (PVB/SiO2) composite fibers were produced by the electrospinning process. The experiments were performed with the PVB solution in concentration of 10 wt.% where ethanol was used as the ...
Influences of synthesis methods and modifier addition on the properties of Ni-based catalysts supported on reticulated ceramic foams
(Springer, New York, 2014)
A method of synthesizing Ni-based catalysts supported on alpha-Al2O3-based foams was developed. The foams were impregnated with aqueous solutions of metal chlorides under an air atmosphere using an aerosol route. Separate ...
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 ...
