In this Perspective, we discuss the recent development of polymerization-induced self-assembly mediated by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) aqueous dispersion polymerization. This approach has quickly become a powerful and versatile technique for the synthesis of a wide range of bespoke organic diblock copolymer nano-objects of controllable size, morphology, and surface f...

Sensory properties are fundamental in determining the success of a cosmetic product. In this work, we assessed the influence of different oils and emulsifiers on the physicochemical and sensory properties of anti-ageing cosmetic O/W emulsions containing vitamin E acetate as active ingredient. No clear correlation between physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics was evidenced. Sens...

Using microencapsulation technology and the natural antimicrobial properties of aloe-emodin, microcapsules were prepared by in situ polymerization using urea-formaldehyde resin as wall material aloe-emodin core material. The mixed into waterborne coatings to improve ability paint films against bacteria for better protection substrates. purpose this study was optimize preparation process antibac...

With the present climate change and increasing world population, there is an urgent need to discover creative, efficient, cost-effective natural products for benefit of humanity. Biosurfactants are produced by various microorganisms that have several distinct properties compared other synthetic surfactants, including mild production conditions, multifunctionality, higher biodegradability, lower...

Emulsification is one of the important processes in chemical flooding to mobilize residual oil wells following secondary recovery. Oil displacement efficiency enhanced and volumetric sweep increased by engineering interactions supporting chemicals used with geological formations present wells. Polymers surfactants are often applied recovery (EOR) as emulsification displacement. However, polymer...
