In this survey adsorption of some heavy metals such as cobalt and lead on montmorillonite and montmorillonite/copper oxide nano-composite is reported. Adsorption percent and adsorption capacity were studied under different conditions such as pH concentration of metal ions amount of clay and interaction time. The results show that an increase in absorption percent and absorption capacity wit...

Cost-effective, clean, highly transparent, and flexible as well a coatable packaging material is envisioned to solve or at least mitigate quality preservation issues of organic materials, originating from moisture interaction under ambient conditions. Liquid phase processing coatings using nano-clay polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) has been developed reported. Detailed analysis the coating revealed per...

A novel fabrication of polymer composite fibers using polycaprolactone (PCL), montmorillonite nanoclay (MMT-Clay), and nano-hydroxyapatite-clay (HAP MMT-Clay) is reported for bone tissue engineering applications. Using a pressurized gyration (PG) setup, (PCL) incorporated with in situ mineralized HAP MMT-Clay were investigated. the method, we able to successfully manufacture HAP-nanoclay-PCL fi...
