Background The silicon tetrahydride or silanes is an inorganic colourless gas with spontaneous combustion in air at room temperature [1–3]. Silane or functionalized silanes has widely industrial and medical applications, and works as coupling and impermeabilizing agent. Silane coupling agents have also been applied to bond glass and carbon fibers to polymer matrices, creating a strong adhesion ...

The development of materials with biomimetic mechanical and biological properties is of great interest for regenerative medicine applications. In particular, hydrogels are a promising class of biomaterials due to their high water content, which mimics that of natural tissues. We have synthesized a hydrophilic biodegradable polymer, designated poly(glucose malate)methacrylate (PGMma), which is c...

Maintaining cells in culture is essential for studying many aspects of cell biology and physiology. Cell culturing is dependent on proper anchorage of cells to the growth surfaces. For most cell lines, and especially for post-mitotic neurons, coated tissue culture plates are prerequisite for seeding. The most commonly used coating reagents are positively charged polymers such as poly-L-lysine o...

Two synthesized eco-epoxy components based on TA: (A) glycidyl ether and (B) phosphate ester, are used, as a replacement for the Bisphenol A (BPA) epoxy component, bonding aluminum (Al) carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP). Their effect mode I fracture toughness (GI) is evaluated by Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) testing while using Digital Image Correlation (DIC) in-situ crack tip monitoring. ...

Using Electrostatic Spray Coating Technique, Polypropylene Powder (EPD 60R) was applied on carbon steel substrates at room temperature. In order to obtain a uniform coating, steel substrates with powder coatings were heated in a vacuum oven at various temperatures up to 250° C for various periods of time up to 45 min and a pressure of 200 mb. The coatings produced had thicknesses of around 470 ...
