Functionalization of polypropylene, polyamide and cellulose acetate materials with pyrethrum extract as a natural repellent in supercritical carbon dioxide
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
This study discusses the possibility of supercritical solvent impregnation of polypropylene and polyamide fabrics as well as cellulose acetate in the form of beads and films with pyrethrum extract in order to fabricate ...
Influence of different concentrations of Zn-carbonate phase on physical-chemical properties of antimicrobial agar composite films
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2019)
Agar-based composites with different Zn-carbonate mineral phase content were prepared by in situ mineralization and the solvent casting method. The mineral phase within the composite films was identified as hydrozincite, ...
The innovative combined microwave-assisted and photo-polymerization technique for synthesis of the novel degradable hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate/gelatin based scaffolds
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The discovery of novel biodegradable biomaterials able to support and control cellular activity as well as development of an enhanced and efficient method for their fabrication, are of paramount importance in the field of ...
The implementation of image analysis for the visualization of adhesion assessment of a composite film
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The objective of this study is to investigate quantitative assessment of the adhesion behavior of composite films onto a metallic surface. The composite films had UV cured Bis-GMA (Bisphenol A glycidylmethacrylate)/TEGDMA ...
Numerical simulation of fatigue crack propagation: A case study of defected steam pipeline
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
In order to prevent the premature failure of steam pipeline produced of molybdenum-vanadium steel, the experimental tests were performed to measure fracture toughness and to determine the mechanical behaviour of cracked ...
Electrochemical Synthesis and Characterization of Silver Doped Poly(vinyl alcohol)/Chitosan Hydrogels
(Natl Assoc Corrosion Eng, Houston, 2017)
In this paper, novel silver-doped poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/graphene (Ag/PVA/CHI/Gr) nanocomposites were produced by in situ electrochemical synthesis of silver nanoparticles in the polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan/graphene ...
Synthesis and characterization of fully bio-based unsaturated polyester resins
(Springer, New York, 2018)
The sustainable tomorrow for future generations lies with the present industrial development toward the proper utilization of various bio-based products. For a transition to a higher level of sustainability, it is necessary ...
Comparative study of CeO2 nanopowders obtained by the hydrothermal method from various precursors
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
The effects of common precursors used in the synthesis of CeO2 nanopowders were investigated, and the structural and spectral properties of the resulting products were compared. Two cerium (III) salts, i.e., Ce(NO3)(3)center ...
Novel nano-composite hydrogels with honey effective against multi-resistant clinical strains of Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(Springer, New York, 2019)
Novel alginate hydrogels with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and honey components were produced with the aim to target multidrug-resistant bacterial strains causing nosocomial wound infections. AgNP synthesis was optimized ...
Structure and magnetic properties of electrodeposited Ni87.3Fe11.3W1.4 alloy
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
A dark gray nanostructured coating of an alloy composed of 87.3 wt.% Ni, 11.3 wt.% Fe and 1.4 wt.% W (Ni87.3Fe11.3W1.4) was electrodeposited from an ammonia citrate bath on a titanium cathode at a current density of 500 ...
