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 ...
Nonlinear frequency response analysis: a recent review and perspectives
(Current Opinion in Electrochemistry, 2021)
The nonlinear frequency response analysis (NFRA) can be seen as an extension of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. NFRA gives a full and detailed representation of the system response and can establish a connection ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Development of advanced floating poly(lactic acid)-based materials for colored wastewater treatment
(Journal of Supercritical Fluids, 2021)
The release of industrial wastewater into the ecosystem prompted our research on the development of an efficient and biodegradable material that can be used for wastewater treatment. We optimized preparation of porous ...
Welded joint geometry effect on fatigue crack growth resistance in different metallic materials
(International Journal of Fatigue, 2021)
Fatigue crack growth through different welded joint regions was investigated, in terms of welded joint geometry and fatigue crack position. In the first phase of investigation, numerical simulation of crack growth in a ...
Mucoadhesive Gelatin Buccal Films with Propranolol Hydrochloride: Evaluation of Mechanical, Mucoadhesive, and Biopharmaceutical Properties
(Pharmaceutics, 2021)
This study processes and characterizes propranolol hydrochloride/gelatin mucoadhesive buccal films. Two types of gelatin are used: Gelatin from porcine skin, type A (GA), and gelatin from bovine skin (GB). The influence ...
Oxidized Hemp Fibers with Simultaneously Increased Capillarity and Reduced Moisture Sorption as Suitable Textile Material for Advanced Application in Sportswear
(Fibers and Polymers, 2021)
Applications of hemp fibers, as a promising natural material in the textile field, mostly require improved fiber properties. In this paper, the oxidation of hemp fibers with potassium permanganate was applied to reduce the ...
Regenerated Cellulose Fiber Functionalization by Two-step Oxidation Using Sodium Periodate and Sodium Chlorite - Impact on the Structure and Sorption Properties
(Korean Fiber Society, 2021)
Successful conversion of cellulose hydroxyl (OH) to carboxyl (COOH) groups is the goal of many modification procedures since COOH groups enhance the polarity of the fibers' surface and can be used for further fibers' ...
