Thermal Properties of PMMA/TiO2 Nanocomposites Prepared by In-Situ Bulk Polymerization
(Wiley-Blackwell, Malden, 2009)
The surface of anatase TiO2 nanoparticles, obtained by the controlled hydrolysis of titanium tetrachloride, was modified by 6-palmitate ascorbic acid. The surface modified TiO2 nanoparticles were dispersed in methyl ...
Influence of cubic alpha-Fe2O3 particles on the thermal stability of poly(methyl methacrylate) synthesized by in situ bulk polymerization
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
Poly(methyl methacrylate)/alpha-Fe2O3 Composites were prepared by in situ bulk radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of the cubic alpha-Fe2O3 particles using 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile as initiator. ...
Plasma-induced Decolorization of Indigo-dyed Denim Fabrics Related to Mechanical Properties and Fiber Surface Morphology
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2009)
The aim of this study was to investigate how morphology of fibers is affected by plasma during the process of decolorization by a low-pressure RF plasma (gas, treatment time, and power were varied) and atmospheric pressure ...
Methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane films on aluminium: Electrochemical characteristics, adhesion and morphology
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2009)
The electrochemical characteristics, adhesion and morphology of methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MAPT) films on aluminium were investigated during exposure to 3 wt.% NaCl. The MAPT films were deposited on aluminium ...
The Study of Sorption of Toxic Basic Dyes from Aqueous Solutions on H2O2 Treated Recycled Wool-based Nonwoven Material and Related Toxicity Analysis
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2009)
The aim of this study was to investigate the potential use of recycled wool-based nonwoven material for removal of basic dyes C.I. Basic Yellow 28 and C.I. Basic Red 46 from aqueous solutions, To improve the sorption ...
Development of a Kinetic Model for Catalytic Reforming of Naphtha and Parameter Estimation Using Industrial Plant Data
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2009)
In the present paper, a semi-empirical kinetic model for catalytic reforming has been developed. In the developed model, the component "lumping" strategy is based on a paraffins, olefins, naphthalenes, and aromatics (PONA) ...
Static holdup in Gas - Flowing solids - Fixed bed contactors
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2009)
Static holdup was investigated experimentally and theoretically in gas - flowing solids - fixed bed bench-scale contactors. Diverse packing elements were used: Raschig rings, ceramic beads, crushed stone and glass beads. ...
Processing of dense nanostructured HAP ceramics by sintering and hot pressing
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
A nanosized HAP powder was sintered and hot pressed, in order to obtain dense HAP ceramics. In a first series of experiments, the powder was isostatically pressed into uniform green compacts and sintered at temperatures ...
Solids flow pattern in gas-flowing solids-fixed bed contactors. Part I Experimental
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
An experimental investigation of the solids flow pattern in gas-flowing solids-fixed bed contactors is presented. The apparatus and procedures for determining the dynamic and static solids holdups, solids residence time ...
Influence of microstructure and phase composition on the nanoindentation characterization of bioceramic materials based on hydroxyapatite
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of microstructure and phase composition on the mechanical behaviour of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and biphasic HAp/beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP) bioceramic materials ...
