The aim of present investigation was to develop press coated tablet for pulsatile drug delivery of ketoprofen using hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers. The drug delivery system was designed to deliver the drug at such a time when it could be most needful to patient of rheumatoid arthritis. The press coated tablets containing ketoprofen in the inner core was formulated with an outer shell by d...

The graphene (rGO) and carbon nanotube (CNT) were adopted to enhance the thermal conductivity of CL-20-based composites as conductive fillers. The microstructure features were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and tested the properties by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), static electricity accumulation, special height, thermal conductivi...

Using a sedimentation method, the extracted starch from Dioscorea hispida tuber was characterized for their morphological, thermal and other physicochemical properties such as total starch content, moisture content, pH, water binding capacity (WBC), solubility and swelling power. The starch content extracted from the tuber was 11.46% with the WBC and moisture content were 107% and 249% respecti...

Micro CuO crystals are synthesized by hydrothermal method in one step. The CuO-Li ion full battery is assembled using the porous lithium foil-graphite as a anode and prepared cathode. micro characterized scanning electron porousscopy, X-ray powder diffractometer, Fourier Transform infrared spectrometer, thermogravimeter, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area measurements, differential calorimeter...

In this study, to obtain biomedical polyurethane elastomers with good mechanical properties and biocompatibility, a series of polycarbonate urethanes were synthesized via a two-step solution of polymerization method using the poly(1,6-hexanediol)carbonate diols (PCDL) as the soft segment, 4,4'-methylenebis(cyclohexyl isocyanate) (H12MDI), 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and 1,4-butanediol ...

Microporous poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membranes were prepared from PVDF/N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC) solutions by using upercritical CO2 phase inversion process. As revealed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), he PVDF membranes exhibit morphological characteristics resulting from both liquid–liquid phase separation and crystallization, i.e.,...

Polyurethane (PU) foams are widely used for many applications, however the use of toxic isocyanate monomers their synthesis has recently led researchers to non-isocyanate PU foams. The most promising alternative is aminolysis cyclic carbonate which yields polyhydroxyurethanes (PHU). Nevertheless, obtained suffer from significant flammability and require introduction flame retardants improve ret...
