Abstract Polymer coatings on cellulosic fibres are widely used to enhance the natural fibre properties by improving, for example, hydrophobicity and wet strength. Here, we investigate effects of a terpolymer P(S-co-MABP-co-PyMA) coating cotton linters eucalyptus improve resistance cellulose against wetness. Coated uncoated were characterised using scanning electron microscopy, contact angle mea...

Over the years, polymeric delivery systems have been devoted to overcoming disastrous consequences of using specific medications [1,2]. Among all, stimuli-responsive drug emerged as promising tools for targeting and controlling release therapeutic agents [3-5].

The dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the poly~vinylidene fluoride–trifluoroethylene– chlorotrifluoroethylene! terpolymers are studied in the temperature range 160–380 K. More attention was given to the dielectric loss in the dielectric spectra and the following results were obtained: ~1! there are two dielectric polarization mechanisms, modes A and B, contributing to the majority of t...
