Adhesive properties of polyester treated by cold plasma in oxygen and nitrogen atmospheres
(2013 , Article)Polyester foil was treated by the surface diffuse barrier discharge (SDBD) plasma at atmospheric pressure in oxygen and/or in nitrogen containing a small amount of oxygen to improve its surface and adhesive properties. ... -
Anticoagulant activity of cellulose nanocrystals from isora plant fibers assembled on cellulose and sio2 substrates via a layer-by-layer approach
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)In this study, we report the isolation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from Isora plant fibers by sulfuric acid hydrolysis and their assembly on hydrophilic cellulose and silicon-di-oxide (SiO2) surfaces via a layer-by-layer ... -
Effect of sulfonated poly (ether ether ketone) on the sensitivity of polyvinylidene fluoride-based resistive humidity sensors
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)We have investigated the effect of sulfonated poly (ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) on the thermal stability, hydrophilicity, and sensitivity of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) films based resistive humidity sensors. The blended ... -
Humidity sensor based on poly(lactic acid)/PANI-ZnO composite electrospun fibers
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2021 , Article)The electrospinning technique has been successfully used to prepared micro-fibers of the poly(lactic acid)/polyaniline–zinc oxide (PLA/PANI–ZnO) composite. The polyaniline–zinc oxide (PANI–ZnO) nanocomposites are synthesized ... -
Self - cleaning superhydrophobic coatings: Potential industrial applications
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)Many technologies have surfaced through careful observation and investigation of unusual features of various species found in Nature. Among which, the remarkable non-wetting properties of lotus leaf has hugely occupied the ... -
White graphene-cobalt oxide hybrid filler reinforced polystyrene nanofibers for selective oil absorption
( MDPI AG , 2020 , Article)In this work, stable hydrophobic nanocomposites are made from electrospun fibers of polystyrene (PS) containing a hybrid filler combination of (i) hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and (ii) cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanomaterials. ...
