Accelerated weathering effects on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and PHBV/TiO2 nanocomposites
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
The effect of accelerated weathering on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and PHBV-based nanocomposites with rutile titanium (IV) dioxide (PHBV/TiO2) was investigated. The accelerated weathering test ...
Effects of rutile-TiO2 nanoparticles on accelerated weathering degradation of poly(Lactic Acid)
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
The effect of accelerated weathering on poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and a PLA nanocomposite with rutile titanium (IV) dioxide (rutile-TiO2) was investigated. The accelerated weathering test applied consecutive steps of ultraviolet ...
Effect of plasma treatment on accelerated pla degradation
(
BME-PT and GTE
, 2021 , Article)
Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) has been found to be important in various applications, such as in the medical, pharma-ceutical, and packaging industries. However, the long-term associated degradation process of PLA is a limiting ...
Generation of photo charge in poly(ethyleneimine)-TiO2-anthocyanin modified papers conditioned at different humidities
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The article describes the influence of humidity on the surface photodielectric properties of papers prepared from poly(ethyleneimine)-TiO2 nanoparticles-anthocyanin modified cellulose fibres. The anthocyanins were extracted ...
Nanofibrous alginate membrane coated with cellulose nanowhiskers for water purification
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Article)
The aim of this study was to develop a filtration membrane based on two-layered nanoscale alginate nanofibres reinforced with maize cellulose nanowhiskers (diameter between 3 and 12 nm). Reinforcing of the membrane with ...
Influence of TiO2 nanoparticles on the crystallization behaviour and tensile properties of PLA/TiO2, PCL/TiO2 and PLA/PCL/TiO2 nanocomposites.
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Article)
This paper investigated the influence of TiO2 nanoparticles on the morphologies, as well as crystallization behaviour and kinetics, of neat PLA and PCL, and of these polymers in different PLA/PCL blends. We used transmission ...
Magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) for chromatographic separation of carbamates.
(
Wiley
, 2018 , Article)
Magnetic solid phase extraction particles (MSPE) were produced using magnetite nanoparticles with diameters between 9 and 13 nm as nucleating agent. The produced particles with magnetite cores were smaller, and more irregular ...
Charge-trapping capability and AC conductivity at different humidities of poly(ethyleneimine)-TiO2-anthocyanin modified cellulose fibres.
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Article)
Modified cellulose materials are finding increasing application in electronics, because of the need for more environmental-friendly electronic circuits. The papers prepared from poly(ethyleneimine)–TiO2–anthocyanin-modified ...
The effect of expanded graphite on the thermal stability, latent heat, and flammability properties of EVA/wax phase change blends
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
This article reports on the morphology, melting and crystallization behavior, thermal stability, flammability and thermal conductivity of shape-stabilized phase-change materials (PCM) for thermal energy storage, based on ...
Effect of expandable graphite on thermal and flammability properties of poly(lactic acid)-starch/poly(ɛ-caprolactone) blend systems
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
The effect of expandable graphite (EG) on the flammability and thermal stability of a poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-starch/poly(ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL) blend was investigated. The samples were prepared by melt-mixing and characterized ...
