copper films (250 nm) deposited on glass substrates, at different substrate temperatures. their optical properties were measured by ellipsometery (single wavelength of 589.3 nm) and spectrophotometery in the spectral range of 200–2600 nm. kramers kronig method was used for the analysis of the reflectivity curves of cu films to obtain the optical constants of the films, while ellipsometery measu...

the purpose of this study is to produce an oil-in-water nano-emulsion by ultrasonication. casein combined with inulin used as continuous phase, while dispersed phase consisted of fish oil. the size of the nano-emulsion and the ph of nano-emulsion were characterized. ultrasound has been used for preparing emulsion by 24 khz intensity for 120 seconds. prepared nano-emulsion was investigated by pa...

The immunogenicities and efficacies of a licensed diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, and inactivated poliovirus vaccine and the same vaccine formulated in a liposome/oil emulsion adjuvant were compared in a mouse model of pertussis respiratory infection. A single dose of the liposome/oil emulsion-adjuvanted vaccine produced significantly higher antibody levels than one dose of the licens...

Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is considered a non-toxic, biodegradable and biocompatible polymer. CMC-based films are rated as flexible, clear, odorless, moderately tear resistant, resistant to oil grease migration, water soluble. Due its hydrophilicity, CMC can serve matrix encapsulate hydrophobic substances, like essential oils, by emulsion dispersions. The of rue (Ruta graveolens) has antifu...

The thermal transport properties of random network, single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) films were assessed using Raman spectroscopy. Two types of SWNT films were investigated: single-layer and stacked. The single-layer films were fabricated by aerosol chemical vapour deposition and subsequent direct dry deposition, while the stacked films were prepared by placing the single-layer films on top...

calcium carbonate nano-particles were synthesized by a reverse micro-emulsion method at room temperature with tween® 80 and span® 80 as co-surfactants. the nano-particles synthesized were surface modified by stearic acid. an important operating variable in the span 80-tween 80/toluene/water reverse micro-emulsion system, the ω-value (water/surfactant molar ratio) was investigated. the material ...
