Inhibition properties of self-assembled corrosion inhibitor talloil diethylenetriamine imidazoline for mild steel corrosion in chloride solution saturated with carbon dioxide
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The inhibition effect of talloil diethylenetriamine imidazoline (TOFA/DETA imidazoline) on corrosion of mild steel in chloride solutions saturated with CO2 was investigated by weight loss measurements (WL) and atomic force ...
Correlation between eco-efficiency measures and resource and impact decoupling for thermal power plants in Serbia
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Electricity generation using carbon-based fuels is responsible for a large fraction of carbon dioxide emissions worldwide. In Serbia, 70% of the electricity is produced from coal-fired power plants. The aim of this ...
In situ photoreduction of Ag+-ions by TiO2 nanoparticles deposited on cotton and cotton/PET fabrics
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2014)
The possibility of in situ photoreduction of Ag+-ions using TiO2 nanoparticles deposited on cotton and cotton/PET fabrics in the presence of amino acid alanine and methyl alcohol has been discussed. The possible interaction ...
ZnO-modified cellulose fiber sheets for antibody immobilization
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Cellulose fiber sheets impregnated with saccharide capped-ZnO nanoparticles were used as bioactive materials for antibody immobilization. First, ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized in the presence of glucose (monosaccharide), ...
Optimization of the process of Cu(II) sorption by mechanically treated Prunus persica L. - Contribution to sustainability in food processing industry
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
This paper presents an eco-friendly approach for minimizing heavy metal pollution, offering food waste valorization and energy source at the same time. It focuses on Cu(II) sorption by low cost sorbent developed by mechanical ...
Optimization of extraction of stinging nettle leaf phenolic compounds using response surface methodology
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
A full three level factorial design was implemented for optimization of extraction parameters in order to maximize total phenolic (TP) yield from stinging nettle leaf. Factors considered were percentage of methanol in ...
Impact of plasma treatment on acoustic properties of natural cellulose materials
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2019)
Low-temperature plasma is widely used in many surface treatment technologies for modifications of the physical properties of different polymeric materials. In the present work, we have examined the modification of acoustical ...
Design of pectin-sodium alginate based films for potential healthcare application: Study of chemico-physical interactions between the components of films and assessment of their antimicrobial activity
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
In this study, pectin based films including different amounts of sodium alginate were prepared by casting method. All the films, with and without polyglycerol as plasticizer, were crosslinked with zinc ions in order to ...
Purification technologies for crude biodiesel obtained by alkali-catalyzed transesterification
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
For commercial application, the ester product of alkali-catalyzed transesterification of vegetable oil or animal fats should be refined after glycerol separation by settling to fulfill the biodiesel standard specifications. ...
Antioxidant edible films based on chitosan and starch containing polyphenols from thyme extracts
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The aim of this study was to analyse the antioxidant activity of different polymeric matrices based on chitosan and starch, incorporating a thyme extract (TE) rich in polyphenols. TE provided the films with remarkable ...
