polyvinyl butyral (pvb) was synthesized by condensation reaction of polyvinyl alcohol (pva) with butanal in aqueous medium containing an effective emulsifier and an inorganic acid as catalyst. the product was characterized by, ir, tg and dtg techniques. percentage of vinyl alcohol groups in the pvb was determined by a chemical method according to a standard method. some clear and soft film samp...

morphological changes in polyvinyl butyral (pvb) electrospun nanofibres can be acquired by preparation of pvb spinning solution in different solvents.  accordingly, three solvents, including ethyl alcohol, n-butanol and isopropanol, with diverse physical properties (e.g. boiling point, density, dipole moment and dielectric constant) were used to prepare polyvinyl butyral (pvb) spinning solution...

Porous polyvinyl butyral and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)polystyrene sulfonate fibers (porous PPPS-f) non-porous PPPS-f solid fibres were fabricated via electrospinning. The microwave absorption characteristics investigated for single bi-layered structures.

Micromarkers with five photoluminescence colors were developed as tracers for shadowing pursuits. The markers are colorless powders with particle diameters of several tens to several hundreds of micrometers, prepared using a cryogenic sample crusher. They were visualized using red, green, yellow, magenta or cyan photoluminescence under ultraviolet light at approximately 365 nm. The markers were...

Effect of nonsolvent in the polymer (polyvinyl butyral) solution in ethanol on the electrospinning performance and nanofiber properties was investigated. Water as the nonsolvent was added in various amounts to the polymer solution. Addition of water did influence neither surface tension nor conductivity of polymer solution significantly. On the other hand, it increased its viscosity. The perfor...
