the gas separation performance of commercial ceramic titania and hybrid silica (hybsi®) membranes was assessed using the gas permeation and permporometry methods. results indicated that the hybsi® membranes have a hybrid surface containing regions covered by a polymeric matrix and others with inorganic pores. these membranes have high h2 selectivity, which increases significantly with temperatu...

Tightly bonding of bioactive coating is the first crucial need for orthopaedic implants. This study describes a novel and convenient technique to prepare bioactive coating with high adhesion on orthopaedic substitutes made of polymeric matrix. Here, a chemical corrosion method has been adopted to fabricate a coating on the surface of injection-moulded polyamide66 (PA66) substrates by corrosive ...

In the current study, oligo(poly(ethylene glycol) fumarate) (OPF)-based hydrogels were tested for the first time as injectable bone substitute materials. The primary feature of the material design was the incorporation of calcium phosphate (CaP) nanoparticles within the polymeric matrix in order to compare the soft tissue response and bone-forming capacity of plain OPF hydrogels with CaP-enrich...

Extended-release matrix tablets of diltiazem hydrochloride (DTZ) were prepared using waxy materials alone or in combination with Kollidon SR. Matrix waxy materials were carnauba wax (CW), bees wax (BW), cetyl alcohol (CA) and glyceryl monostearate (GMS). Dissolution studies were carried out by using a six stations USP XXII type 1 apparatus. The in vitro drug release study was done in 1000 ml ph...

Conducting polymers, because of their special properties, are used to introduce conductive polymeric composites. Also, clays have recently been used for preparation of polymer composites with enhanced mechanical and thermal properties. The aim of this work is to study the synergetic effect of the co-presence of conducting polyaniline and montmorillonite in the polyethylene matrix. Polyethylene ...

In this study, UV-curable urethane acrylate UA synthesized and then characterized by FTIR and HNMR. For better dispersion of nanoparticles in polymeric matrix, nano Al2O3 was modified by silane coupling agent and then its nanocomposites were prepared. The characteristics of synthesized nanocomposites were analyzed by TGA, DMA and infrared thermography. The results signify that adding nano Al2O3...

A coumarin derivative was employed for the detection of biogenic amines in buffered aqueous solution by UV-Vis or fluorescence spectroscopy. Incorporated in a polymeric matrix, the dye can also be used for the optical detection of gaseous amines.

fe3o4 nanoparticles were synthesizedviaa simple chemical reaction between fecl2.4h2o and fe(no3)3.9h2o under nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature, and then nanoparticles were added to cellulose acetate (ca) polymer. the influence of nanoparticles on the thermal properties of ca polymeric matrix was studied using thermogravimetric analysis (tga). nanostructures were characterized by x-ray dif...
