Chitosan Nanoparticles Functionalized Viscose Fabrics as Potentially Durable Antibacterial Medical Textiles
(Materials, 2021)
This research proposed two pretreatments of viscose fabrics: oxidation with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO) and coating with TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCN), to introduce functional groups ...
The effect of the ultrasound agitation and source of ceria particles on the morphology and structure of the Zn-Co-CeO2 composite coatings
(Journal of Materials Research and Technology-JMR&T, 2021)
The goal of this research was to develop and analyse novel Zn-Co-CeO2 protective coatings on steel. Two different sources of ceria (CeO2) particles were employed: commercial powder and synthesized stable colloidal ...
Biosorbents from Plant Fibers of Hemp and Flax for Metal Removal: Comparison of Their Biosorption Properties
(MDPI AG, 2021)
Lignocellulosic fibers extracted from plants are considered an interesting raw material for environmentally friendly products with multiple applications. This work investigated the feasibility of using hemp- and flax-based ...
Valorization of corn stover and molasses for enzyme synthesis, lignocellulosic hydrolysis and bioethanol production by Hymenobacter sp. CKS3
(Environmental Technology & Innovation, 2021)
During the last few decades, energy demand is increasing rapidly. Concerning this, the use of renewables - lignocellulose biomass, for bioethanol production, as an efficient alternative to replacing fossil fuels, is highly ...
Halochromic cellulose textile obtained via dyeing with biocolorant isolated from Streptomyces sp. strain NP4
(Cellulose, 2021)
Halochromic (pH-responsive) material was obtained by dyeing functionalized viscose fabric with a crude extract from Streptomyces sp. strain NP4. The functionalization of the fabric before dyeing was performed to make ...
Does Day-to-Day Variability in Stool Consistency Link to the Fecal Microbiota Composition?
(Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021)
Introduction Stool consistency has been associated with fecal microbial composition. Stool consistency often varies over time, in subjects with and without gastrointestinal disorders, raising the question whether variability ...
Recovery of tungsten trioxide from waste diamond core drilling crowns by nitric acid leaching
(International Journal of Refractory Metals & Hard Materials, 2021)
A cost-effective and simple hydrometallurgy procedure for recycling the diamond core drilling crowns by nitric acid leaching, followed by the sodium hydroxide leaching, has been developed. The effect of temperature, nitric ...
Viscoelasticity and cell jamming state transition
(European Physical Journal Plus, 2021)
Although collective cell migration (CCM) is a highly coordinated migratory mode, perturbations in the form of jamming state transitions and vice versa often occur even in 2D. These perturbations are involved in various ...
Synthesis of Silica Particles Using Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis Method
(Metals, 2021)
Silica has sparked strong interest in hydrometallurgy, catalysis, the cement industry, and paper coating. The synthesis of silica particles was performed at 900 degrees C using the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) method. ...
Advanced damage resistance monitoring procedure on the composite materials? surface-exposed to cavitation testing
(Wear, 2021)
Morphology and development of surface damage of alumina-based materials, resulting from cavitation erosion is studied in this paper. Two series of samples were prepared: samples without fibers and those with the addition ...
