Alkali activated slag cement doped with Zn-rich electric arc furnace dust
(Elsevier, 2020)
Steel production in electric arc furnaces yielding formation of two waste materials, toxic electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) and non-hazardous electric arc furnace slag (EAFS). EAFD presents a potential hazard to the ...
Antioxidant activity of PLA/PCL films loaded with thymol and/or carvacrol using scCO(2) for active food packaging
(Food Packaging and Shelf Life, 2020)
Present study was aimed to produce biodegradable films with antioxidant activity for active food packaging. Films of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with 5 wt% of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL), denoted as PLA-5, were loaded ...
Tautomerism in 8-(phenyldiazenyl)quinolin-5-ol: An attempt for pH activated rotary switch
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The tautomerism of 8-(phenyldiazenyl)quinolin-5-ol has been studied by a combination of theoretical (DFT calculations) and experimental (UV-Vis and NMR) methods. The detailed study of neutral molecules has shown that the ...
Composite poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide)/poly(acrylic acid) hydrogels synthesized using UV and gamma irradiation: comparison of material properties
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Composite hydrogels capable of controlled drug delivery via ion exchange are an interesting group of materials for the construction of implantable drug reservoirs for electrically charged drugs. In this study, we synthesized ...
Batch and column adsorption of cations, oxyanions and dyes on a magnetite modified cellulose-based membrane
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2020)
An optimized method is presented to make magnetite (MG) modified cellulose membrane (Cell-MG) from 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid dianhydride functionalized waste cell fibers; (Cell-NH(2)and ...
Multifunctional jute fabrics obtained by different chemical modifications
(Springer, 2020)
The aim of the present research is first to reduce the jute fabric non-cellulosic components by using different chemical modifications (i.e. alkali and oxidative) and then to analyze their influence on the jute fabric ...
Stability of TEMPO-oxidized cotton fibers during natural aging
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Stability of cotton fibers oxidized by the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO)-mediated system during natural aging was monitored; the oxidized and five-year-aged fibers were characterized in terms of ...
Development of comfortable and eco-friendly cellulose based textiles with improved sustainability
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Considering specific mechanical, hygienic and protective properties of hemp, as well as its positive
sustainability aspects, the raising role of hemp fibres in the textile sector can be expected. The limited
deformability ...
Systematic review: gastric microbiota in health and disease
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
Background Helicobacter pylori is the most infamous constituent of the gastric microbiota and its presence is the strongest risk factor for gastric cancer and other gastroduodenal diseases. Although historically the healthy ...
Novel antimicrobial nanocomposite based on polypropylene non-woven fabric, biopolymer alginate and copper oxides nanoparticles
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
The objective of this study was to develop novel antimicrobial nanocomposite material based on polypropylene (PP) non-woven fabric, biopolymer alginate and copper oxides nanoparticles. In order to introduce polar groups ...
