Predicting Low-Modulus Biocompatible Titanium Alloys Using Machine Learning
(MDPI, 2023)
Titanium alloys have been present for decades as the main components for the production of various orthopedic and dental elements. However, modern times require titanium alloys with a low Young’s modulus, and without the ...
Technologically Sustainable Route for Metals Valorization from Jarosite-PbAg Sludge
(Minerals, 2021)
By-products from zinc hydrometallurgy are classified as hazardous waste with strong leaching toxicities. Even though numerous research papers are dedicated to valorizing valuable metals in it, the primary management route ...
Synthesis of Silica Particles Using Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis Method
(Metals, 2021)
Silica has sparked strong interest in hydrometallurgy, catalysis, the cement industry, and paper coating. The synthesis of silica particles was performed at 900 degrees C using the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) method. ...
Semi-Crystalline Copolymer Hydrogels as Smart Drug Carriers: In Vitro Thermo-Responsive Naproxen Release Study
(Pharmaceutics, 2021)
In this study, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate) hydrogels were synthesized using free radical initiated copolymerization method. Four hydrogels with different cross-linker concentrations were ...
Agricultural waste as a source of peroxidase for wastewater treatment: Insight in kinetics and process parameters optimization for anthraquinone dye removal
(Environmental Technology & Innovation, 2021)
The number of different technologies available for colored wastewater treatment shows the vastness of the issue. Finding the most feasible one, yet taking into account the cost, the efficiency and eco-friendliness is like ...
Effect of the Degree of Conversion on Mechanical Properties and Monomer Elution from Self-, Dual- and Light-Cured Core Composites
(Materials, 2021)
The objective of this work was to measure and correlate the degree of conversion (DC), mechanical properties and monomer elution from self-, dual- and light-cured core composites. Five samples of each of the following ...
Iso- and Anisotropic Etching of Micro Nanofibrillated Cellulose Films by Sequential Oxygen and Nitrogen Gas Plasma Exposure for Tunable Wettability on Crystalline and Amorphous Regions
(Materials, 2021)
The surface of cellulose films, obtained from micro nanofibrillated cellulose produced with different enzymatic pretreatment digestion times of refined pulp, was exposed to gas plasma, resulting in a range of surface ...
Pulsed electric field treatment of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei, bacteria with probiotic potential
(Lwt-Food Science and Technology, 2021)
Lactic acid bacteria play an important role in functional food and fermentation products for human and animal nutrition, as probiotics, paraprobiotics, postbiotics or high-lactic acid-producing strains in biorefineries. ...
New Eco-Friendly Xanthate-Based Flotation Agents
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
An optimal laboratory two-step procedure was developed for sodium/potassium O-alkyl carbonodithioate (sodium/potassium alkyl xanthates) production in the form of aqueous solutions. Sodium isopropyl xanthate (Na-iPrX), as ...
Amides as a model system of low molar mass algal organic matter. Influence on the adsorption of p-nitrophenol on activated carbon
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
In this study, the adsorption equilibrium and diffusivity parameters of p-nitrophenol were estimated for water containing different concentrations of secondary amides. Commercial powdered activated carbon was used as an ...
