Functionalization of cotton with poly-NiPAAm/chitosan microgel: Part II. Stimuli-responsive liquid management properties
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2012)
An innovative strategy for functional finishing of cotton involves application of stimuli-responsive surface modifying system based on temperature- and pH-responsive poly-NiPAAm/chitosan microgel. The stimuli-responsiveness ...
Functionalization of cotton with poly-NiPAAm/chitosan microgel. Part I. Stimuli-responsive moisture management properties
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2012)
Stimuli-responsive microgel, based on synthetic polymer (poly-NiPAAm) and biopolymer (chitosan), was incorporated onto cotton fabric surface by pad-dry-cure method using 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA) as ...
The combined extraction of sage (Salvia officinalis L.): Ultrasound followed by supercritical CO2 extraction
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2011)
A wide spectrum of phytochemicals could be isolated from sage (Salvia officinalis L) using different extraction or distillation technique: the supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), the volatiles compounds (monoterpenes and ...
ZnO varistors prepared by direct mixing of constituent phases
(Sendai : Japan Institute of Metals, 2000)
ZnO varistors with non-linearity coefficients reaching 50 and low values of the leakage current (approximately 0.01 A/m2), were obtained by a method referred to as `direct mixing of constituent phases'. The method is based ...
In-depth quantitative profiling of post-translational modifications of Timothy grass pollen allergome in relation to environmental oxidative stress
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
An association between pollution (e.g., from traffic emissions) and the increased prevalence of respiratory allergies has been observed. Field-realistic exposure studies provide the most relevant assessment of the effects ...
Dispersion effect in formic acid oxidation on PtAu/C nanocatalyst prepared by water-in-oil microemulsion method
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2019)
Low loading PtAu nanoparticles supported on high area carbon were synthesized by water-in-oil microemulsion method and examined for formic acid and methanol oxidation. Prepared catalyst powder was characterized by Xray ...
On the interdiffusion-based quantum cascade laser
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, Piscataway, 2002)
Design procedure for the active region of current pumped quantum cascade laser is proposed, so to achieve maximal gain. Starting with an arbitrary smooth potential, a family of isospectral Hamiltonians with predefined ...
Gain-maximized GaAs/AlGaAs quantum-cascade laser with digitally graded active region
(Amer Inst Physics, Melville, 2002)
An advanced strategy for the optimal design and realization of a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum-cascade laser is presented. It relies on recently established inverse scattering techniques to design an optimal smooth active region ...
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 ...
Irritable bowel syndrome
(Nature Research, Berlin, 2016)
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disease with a high population prevalence. The disorder can be debilitating in some patients, whereas others may have mild or moderate symptoms. The most ...
