Influence of surface modified TiO2 nanoparticles by gallates on the properties of PMMA/TiO2 nanocomposites
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
Nanocomposites based on poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by in situ radical polymerization of MMA in solution. The surface of TiO2 nanoparticles was modified with four gallic acid ...
Assessment of the impact of geographical factors on the spatial distribution of heavy metals in soils around the steel production facility in Smederevo (Serbia)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
The concentration of heavy metals (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn) in surface soils in the area surrounding the steel production facility in Serbia was determined to assess the contribution of emissions to pollution. ...
Determination of thermodynamic interactions of polylactide and biphasic calcium phosphate/polylactidecomposite by inverse gas chromatography at infinite dilution
(Springer, New York, 2014)
Inverse gas chromatography at infinite dilution was applied to determine the thermodynamic interactions of poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) and the composite of biphasic calcium phosphate and PLLA (BCP/PLLA). The specific retention ...
Solid circulation rate and particle collisions in quasi two-dimensional water fluidized beds of spherical particles
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
The equations for the overall particle circulation rate and the frequency of particle-particle collisions in the quasi two-dimenional water-fluidized bed were proposed. The equations were based on the experimental results ...
The influence of anion type in electrolyte on the properties of electrodeposited Zn-Mn alloy coatings
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2013)
Zn - Mn alloy electrodeposition on steel electrode, in electrolytes containing chloride or sulfate anions, was investigated by chronopotentiometry. Galvanostatically obtained electrodeposits were characterized by X-ray ...
Conventional and spark-plasma sintering of cordierite powders synthesized by sol-gel methods
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Cordierite powders synthesized by colloidal and alkoxide sol-gel methods were conventionally and spark-plasma sintered. The powders for the sintering investigations were obtained by calcination of the gels at a temperature ...
Synthesis of fluorine substituted hydroxyapatite nanopowders and application of the central composite design for determination of its antimicrobial effects
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
Synthetic biomaterials based on fluorine substituted hydroxyapatite are potentially attractive for orthopedic and dental implant applications. The new synthesis of fluorine substituted hydroxyapatite samples were done by ...
The microbial eukaryote Blastocystis is a prevalent and diverse member of the healthy human gut microbiota
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2014)
To date, the majority of research into the human gut microbiota has focused on the bacterial fraction of the community. Inevitably, this has resulted in a poor understanding of the diversity and functionality of other ...
Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of the {yKBr + (1-y)K2HPO4}(aq) system at T=298.15 K
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2013)
The molality-based osmotic coefficients of aqueous mixtures of KBr and K2HPO4 have been measured at T = (298.15 +/- 0.01) K by the isopiestic method at KBr ionic strength fractions y = (0.18328, 0.38241, 0.58031, 0.79186, ...
Evaluation of periodic processes with two modulated inputs based on nonlinear frequency response analysis. Case study: CSTR with modulation of the inlet concentration and flow-rate
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
In our previous work, a new, fast and easy, nonlinear frequency response method for analysing potential improvements of reactor performance by forced periodic operation was presented. This method, which is based on Volterra ...
