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 ...
Optimization of modifier deposition on the alumina surface to enhance mechanical properties and cavitation resistance
(Springer, New York, 2020)
Composites based on poly(methyl methacrylate), dimethyl itaconate matrix and alumina particles were prepared. Ferrous oxide-doped alumina particles (Al2O3Fe) and commercial alumina nanoparticles (Al(2)O(3)n) modified with ...
Upgrading of valuable food component contents and anti-nutritional factors depletion by solid-state fermentation: A way to valorize wheat bran for nutrition
(Academic Press, 2021)
Wheat bran is a by-product of wheat flour production used as a nutritious and economic feed ingredient, but since it possesses several anti-nutritional factors that entrap nutrients and interfere with digestion and absorption, ...
Development of protease nanobiocatalysts and their application in hydrolysis of sunflower meal protein isolate
(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2021)
In this study, the suitability of fumed silica nanoparticles (FNS) and its derivatives (amino-modified FNS (AFNS), cyanuric chloride-activated AFNS (CCAFNS) and epoxy-modified FNS (GFNS)), for covalent immobilisation of ...
Structure prediction, high pressure effect and properties investigation of superhard B6O
(IOP Publishing Ltd, Bristol, 2020)
Ab initio data mining approach has been used in order to investigate B6O system and discover new possible modifications, besides experimentally known R-3m (alpha-B6O) structure and theoretically predicted Cmcm (beta-B6O) ...
Improvement in cavitation resistance of poly (vinyl butyral) composite films with silica nanoparticles: A technical note
(Polymers & Polymer Composites, 2021)
In this study poly (vinyl butyral)/silica (PVB/SiO2) composite films were subjected to the cavitation process. The experiments were carried out with a 10 wt.% PVB solution in ethanol. Silica nanoparticles were added into ...
The effect of polyhedral oligosilsesquioxanes (POSS) on cavitation resistance of hybrid acrylate films
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
Cavitation erosion of hybrid acrylate composite films with polyhedral oligosilsesquioxanes (POSS) was investigated in this study. The hybrid films are made with 1, 3 and 5 wt% of POSS reagents containing: (a) hydroxyl ...
