Melt Spinning, Functionalization and Durability of Polyetheretherketone-Based Fibres

New Cellulosic Materials Produced by Thermoplastic Processing of Silylcellulose

The application of melt spinning processes for the production of cellulosic fibres would be a significant sign of progress for economic and environmental reasons. A process for melt spinning of trimethyl-silycellulose (TMSC) was developed. Bis(trimethyl-)silylcarbamate (BSC) was found to be excellent for the silylation of cellulose due to good swelling and penetration into cellulose. The synthe...

Effect of Melt Spinning Variables on the Structural Changes of Recycled and Bottle Grade Filament Yarn PET

Production and Characterization of Gelatine Based Electro-spun Nano-fibres as Burn Wound Dressings

Silver sulfadiazine is used to prevent and treat infections of second- and third-degree burns. It kills a wide variety of bacteria. In this study silver sulfadiazine was used in gelatin based electro-spun nano-fibers with various drug to polymer ratios (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 %). SEM, EDX and FTIR analysis showed that the continuous, bead-free, fine fibers containing silver sulfadiazine as an anti...

Spiders spinning electrically charged nano-fibres.

Most spider threads are on the micrometre and sub-micrometre scale. Yet, there are some spiders that spin true nano-scale fibres such as the cribellate orb spider, Uloborus plumipes. Here, we analyse the highly specialized capture silk-spinning system of this spider and compare it with the silk extrusion systems of the more standard spider dragline threads. The cribellar silk extrusion system c...

ارزیابی ریزساختاری و خواص مغناطیسی آلیاژ آمورف پایه کبالت Co70B20Si5Fe4Mo1 تولید شده به‌روش مذاب‌‌ریسی و آلیاژسازی مکانیکی

Cobalt-based amorphous alloys attracted the attention of many researchers to carry out fundamental research for their application in electronics, sensors and magnetic memory due to their special magnetic properties including close to zero Magnetostriction, magnetic permeability and high saturation magnetization. The purpose of this study is the  formation and evaluation of microstruct...
