it is several decades that the application of membrane processes for gas separation has become a great concern within industries. among them, the polymeric membranes of different structures have played the most important role. such application has been widely extended to gas separation and due to the necessity of both; prediction of the behavior of these processes and recognition of the effecti...

some innovative solutions are proposed to the problem of the unavoidable physical migration of antioxidants from plastic films for packaging, in order to minimize the consequent undesirable effect of food contamination. in previous exploratory tests, phenolic antioxidant co-units were achieved and incorporated into polyethylene chain and now the work is extended to create new families of polyme...

Cellulose acetate-based molecularly imprinted polymeric membranes were prepared using vanillin as template molecule. The microscopic structure of the resultant polymeric membranes was characterized by SEM and FTIR spectroscopy, and the selective binding properties and separation capacity of the membranes for vanillin and o-vanillin were tested with binding experiments and separate experiments, ...

Functionalized and reduced graphene oxide nanosheets with octadecylamine (rGOODA) were incorporated in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membranes to be used pervaporation for removal of toluene from water. The properties the functionalized characterized by FTIR, XRD, Raman, SEM, TGA analyses. prepared mixed matrix (MMMs) using contact angle, AFM, SEM-EDX, TGA, solvent uptake tests. contained (rGO) r...

Polymeric micelles, which form upon self-assembly of amphiphilic macromolecules, can act as vehicles for the oral delivery of these drugs. This manuscript.This review summarizes recent developments related to targeted anticancer drug delivery to tumor sites using polymeric micelles via active and passive.approach in the field of polymeric drug delivery systems was introduced by the. Functionali...

Polymeric delivery systems have been extensively studied to achieve localized and controlled release of protein drugs. However, it is still challenging to control the release of multiple protein drugs in distinct stages according to the progress of disease or treatment. This study successfully demonstrates that multiple protein drugs can be released from aptamer-functionalized hydrogels with ad...

PIM-1 mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) were fabricated with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) and graphene oxide (GO) functionalized POSS (GO-POSS), tested for CO2/N2 (single gas) CO2/CH4 (1:1, v:v gas mixture). The CO2 permeability of the best performing fresh MMM (containing 0.05 wt% GO-POSS) was ? 12000 Barrer, which is 69% higher than that neat membrane, about same selectivity (CO2/C...

Herein, we report a photoinitiated reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) dispersion copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and methyl methacrylic (MAA) for the preparation of highly monodisperse carboxyl-functionalized polymeric microspheres. High rates of polymerization were observed, with more than 90% particle yields being achieved within 3 h of UV irradiation. Effec...
