Size and surface effects on the MRI relaxivity of manganese ferrite nanoparticle contrast agents
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2007)
Superparamagnetic MnFe2O4 nanocrystals of different sizes were synthesized in high-boiling ether solvent and transferred into water using three different approaches. First, we applied a ligand exchange in order to form a ...
Efficiency of oil removal from real wastewater with different sorbent materials
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2007)
The aim of this paper was to investigate the efficiency of different sorbent materials for oil removal from wastewater. Two types of sorbents were investigated: organic (loose natural wool fibers (NWF) and recycled wool ...
Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of sesquiterpenes from valerian root
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2007)
Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of sesquiterpenes from valerian root was investigated. Extractions from cultivar Arterner zuctung and two wild grown valerian subspecies were performed. The influence of extraction ...
Corrosion stability of epoxy coatings on aluminum pretreated by vinyltriethoxysilane
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
The electrochemical and transport properties and adhesion of epoxy coatings electrodeposited on aluminum pretreated by vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) were investigated during exposure to 3% NaCl. The VTES films were deposited ...
The effects of hemicelluloses and lignin removal on water uptake behavior of hemp fibers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
This study investigated the individual influences of hemicelluloses and lignin removal on the water uptake behavior of hemp fibers. Hemp fibers with different content of either hemicelluloses or lignin were obtained by ...
In situ stabilization of toxic metals in polluted soils using phosphates: theoretical prediction and experimental verification
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
The in situ (in place) immobilization of toxic metals, using inexpensive "reactive" amendments, is considered as a simple and cost-effective approach for the treatment of soils, contaminated by the presence of heavy metals, ...
Prediction for debonding damage process and effective elastic properties of glass-bead-filled modified polyphenylene oxide
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2006)
A three-dimensional three-phase finite element unit cell model has been applied to predict the debonding damage process of particulate polymer composites (PPC) during tensile deformation. The model consists of a particle, ...
Determination of thermal shock resistance of silicon carbide/cordierite composite material using nondestructive test methods
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
In the present work Mg-exchanged zeolit and silicon carbide were used as starting materials for obtaining cordierite/SiC composite ceramics with weight ratio 30:70 and 50:50. Behavior of composite ceramics after thermal ...

Factors influencing the removal of divalent cations by hydroxyapatite
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2008)
The effect of pH, contact time, initial metal concentration and presence of common competing cations, on hydroxyapatite (HAP) sorption properties towards Ph2+, Cd2+, Zn2+, and Sr2+ ions was studied and compared using a ...
