Investigation of the physico-mechanical properties of electrospun PVDF/cellulose nanofibers.
(
Wiley
, 2016 , Article)
The electro-activity and mechanical properties of PVDF depends mainly on the b-phase content and degree of crystallinity. In this study, cellulose fibers were used to improve these characteristics. This could be achieved ...
Photoimmobilization of zwitterionic polymers on surfaces to reduce cell adhesion
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
Simple and robust methods for modifying hydrophobic polymer surfaces with zwitterionic polymers using UV irradiation were developed. Two random zwitterionic copolymers consisting of either carboxybetaine or sulfobetaine ...
PVA/chitosan/silver nanoparticles electrospun nanocomposites: Molecular relaxations investigated by modern broadband dielectric spectroscopy
(
MDPI AG
