Functionalization of polyester fabrics with alginates and TiO2 nanoparticles
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
This study was aimed to investigate the possibility of engineering the multifunctional textile nanocomposite material based on the polyester fabric modified with natural polysaccharide alginate and colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles. ...
Acetylation of cellulose – Another pathway of natural cellulose aging during library storage of books and papers
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022)
Gaseous acetic acid is formed under conditions of storage of historic paper objects. Its presence not only promotes hydrolytic cleavage of cellulose, but also causes acetylation of the cellulosic material to very small ...
In situ chitosan gelation initiated by atmospheric plasma treatment
(Elsevier Ltd., 2014)
This work reports on the feasibility of atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma as a novel synthetic pathway for the liquid phase gelation of chitosan. The DBD plasma chitosan gelation process did not ...
Amine activators influence on grafting reaction between methacrylic acid and starch
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
The aim of this work was synthesis of grafted copolymers of poly(methacrylic acid) and starch (PMAA-graft-starch) with high percentage of grafting, G (%). The effect of temperature (55-75 degrees C), concentration of ...
Cornstarch aerogels with thymol, citronellol, carvacrol, and eugenol prepared by supercritical CO2- assisted techniques for potential biomedical applications
(Elsevier Ltd., 05-2024)
This study focuses on the development of bioactive materials using environmentally friendly techniques, renewable, biocompatible, and biodegradable polysaccharide, as well as natural bioactive compounds (NBCs) found in ...
Effect of plasma treatment on chemical composition, structure and sorption properties of lignocellulosic hemp fibers (Cannabis sativa L.)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Hemp fibers with different amount of hemicelluloses and lignin were subjected to atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge under different conditions (40 W and 80 W power of discharge, const. time 120 s) in order ...
