This study describes the role of in situ nano SiC whiskers on the strength and density of alumina silicate–SiC-carbonrefractory compounds. The prepared specimens were composed of 65 wt. % chamotte as alumina silicatecompound, 15 wt. % SiC-containing material regenerates and 10 wt. % fine coke and 10 wt. % liquid resole asbinder. Different values of additives (such as silicon a...

abstractin the last step of desolvation method for preparation of albumin nanoparticles, glutaraldehyde (ga) is added to stabilize the newly formed nanoparticles. due to undesirable effects of ga, the objective of this study was to evaluate alternative methods of crosslinking including ultraviolet (uv) irradiation, adding of glucose and combination of both methods. the nanoparticles were prepar...

background: corneal collagen cross-linking with riboflavin, also known as collagen cross-linking (cxl), involves the application of riboflavin solution to the eye that is activated by illumination with ultraviolet a (uva) light. we survey here the topographic corneal changes one year after cxl in patients with corneal keratoconus. materials and methods: this prospective randomized clinical tria...

new biodegradable network polymers containing siloxane-linked polymeric prodrugs of 5-ammino-2-hydroxybenzoic acid (5-asa) in the main chain were prepared by ter polymerization of methacrylic acid (ma), 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (hema), and bis (trimethylsilyloxy) methylsilane (vbm) in the presence of some new cross-linking agents.the monomers and polymers were characterized by ft-ir and 1h-nm...

cross linking of high density polyethylene (hdpe) was first performed via high energy10 mev electron beam (eb) irradiation. hdpe was also cross linked withdicumyle peroxide (dcp).the gel content of samples was determined by solvent extraction.degree of cross linking was evaluated by hot set apparatus; as well .in order to clarify the effectof nature of cross linking, correlation of electrical p...
