The purpose of the work was to investigate sorptive capacity natural clay samples with respect 90 Sr and 137 Cs assess possibility using these as components protective barriers at radioactive waste isolation facilities. Bentonite clays Zyryanskoye Desyaty Khutor deposits high-melting Kampanovskoye deposit were selected for investigation. sorption through ionic exchange is characterized by value...

Our continuing research on the preparation, characterization, materials properties, and biodegradability of polylactide (PLA)/organically modified layered silicate (OMLS) nanocomposites has yielded results on PLA/montmorillonite nanocomposites. Montmorillonite (mmt) modified with dimethyldioctadecylammonium cation was used as an OMLS for nanocomposite preparation. The internal structure of nano...

the aim of this study was to investigate the rate of water vapor permeability (wvp) and moisture sorption of starch-montmorillonite (mmt) nanocomposite films. the nanocomposite films were prepared using the casting method andglycerol was used as a plasticizer. the effect of glycerol concentration on wvp of the films was determined at 25°c with a relative humidity of 0-99% (inside and outside of...

STUDY OF CONTROLLED RELEASE OF DAPSONE FROM MODIFIED MONTMORILLONITE AND POLYMER MATRICES

In [4], Cariolaro et al. demonstrated how colorability problems can be approached numerically by the use of computer algebra systems and the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz. In particular, they verified a case of the List Coloring Conjecture by proving that the list-chromatic index of K6 is 5. In this short note, we show that using the coefficient formula of Schauz [16] is much more efficient tha...

This study was conducted to investigate organoclay prepared using montmorillonite clay with zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles and a long-chain organic surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide for the removal of nitrate ion from aqueous solutions. Adsorbents were evaluated by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FT-IR),...
