Drug-clay nanohybrids as sustained delivery systems
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Biocompatible 2-dimensional layered compounds such as clays and layered double hydroxides (anionic clays) have been explored and utilized in drug delivery system for therapeutic application because they can safely encapsulate ...
Effect of sintering temperature on the structural and magnetic properties of MgFe2O4 ceramics prepared by spark plasma sintering
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Spark plasma sintering (SPS) is a powerful technique to produce fine grain dense ferrite at low temperature. This work was undertaken to study the effect of sintering temperature on the densification, microstructures and ...
Carbon/nitrogen-doped TiO2: New synthesis route, characterization and application for phenol degradation
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Porous nanocrystalline carbon and nitrogen (CN)-doped TiO2 photocatalyst was prepared using carbon tetrachloride and polyaniline as precursors. The obtained powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray ...
Propagation rate coefficient for sulfobetaine monomers by PLP-SEC
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Zwitterionic polymers have been extensively used in the biomedical field, however, the knowledge about the kinetics and mechanism of radical polymerization of their monomers is limited. This work introduces the first ...
Corrosion protection of electrospun PVDF-ZnO superhydrophobic coating
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
A one-step electrospinning technique was used to prepare a protective superhydrophobic PVDF–ZnO nanocomposite coating for aluminum against corrosion. The wettability and morphology of the prepared coating surfaces was ...
Preparation and characterisation of Ce:YAG -polycarbonate composites for white LED.
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Ce:YAG-polycarbonate composites were prepared with several amounts of Ce:YAG in the range 0.1
e5 wt.% by using melt compounding. The structure and morphology of the composites were investigated by means of X-ray diffractometry ...
Flexible NO2 sensors from renewable cellulose nanocrystals/iron oxide composites
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
A bio-friendly nanostructured cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) sheet with iron oxide grown on it acting as a nitrogen dioxide (NO2) gas sensor was fabricated by hydrothermal method. The structural investigation was done to ...
Erosive wear performance of API X42 pipeline steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The need to transport petroleum products through pipelines has resulted in the increased erosion of the pipeline materials used in the petroleum industry. In this study, dry erosion test was performed using sand blaster ...
Review of recent research on biomedical applications of electrospun polymer nanofibers for improved wound healing
(
Future Medicine
, 2016 , Article)
Wound dressings play an important role in a patient’s recovery from health problems,
as unattended wounds could lead to serious complications such as infections or,
ultimately, even death. Therefore, wound dressings since ...
