BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to improve the drug loading, encapsulation efficiency, and sustained-release properties of supercritical CO(2)-based drug-loaded polymer carriers via a process of suspension-enhanced dispersion by supercritical CO(2) (SpEDS), which is an advanced version of solution-enhanced dispe…
Nanocrystalline Tb-doped ZnO films have been prepared by ion-beam sputtering technique. Magnetic characterization showed that the films are ferromagnetic with Curie temperature (TC) higher than room temperature. By further treated with a rapid thermal annealing process, both the grain size and the carrier concentratio…
Chitosan is a well known anti-microbial polymer. It is desired to develop and evaluate chitosan based structures with high surface area using electrospun nanofibers. To explore the properties of chitosan derivatives, iminochitosan was synthesized and electrospinning of its solutions was conducted. Nanofibers were obta…
Abstract The mechanism of formation of detrital, beidellite-rich clay occurring in the Agadir basin (Morocco) is well documented, but its detailed characterization is incomplete which limits its application. The aim of the present study was to provide further details of the mineralogical and physico-chemical character…
Abstract The powders of peanut shell is first liquefied with the mixture of polyethylene glycol‐400 and monoethylene glycol (MEG) using sulfuric acid at 160°C for 2 h. Polyurethane (PU)‐type rigid foam is prepared from the reaction between peanut shell liquefied with the MEG and diphenylmethane diisocyanate. Then the…
Semiconductor nanoparticles (NPs) became important and wide-used tool for cell imaging because of their unique remarkable properties. Nevertheless, all previous investigations in this area were done on proliferating cells. For the first time, this work demonstrates strong influence of cell active proliferation/contact…
High-pressure structural phase transitions in NaNiF(3) and NaCoF(3) were investigated by conducting in situ synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction experiments using a diamond anvil cell. The perovskite phases (GdFeO(3) type) started to transform into postperovskite phases (CaIrO(3) type) at about 11-14 GPa, even at room…
Carbon nanoparticles are a promising material which finds application in different fields in industry and medicine. For medical applications, biocompatibility of nanoparticles is of critical importance because a lot of medical implants are coated by carbon coating. Our previous results showed that nanoparticles may in…
The conformation transition from random coil and/or helix to β-sheet of silk protein is the most important step in the formation of silk fiber in nature as well as by artificial spinning. Time-dependent Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used in this research to monitor such a conformation transition…
We fabricated thin-film thermoelectric modules for thermal–photovoltaic hybrid solar generator. Bi 0.5 Sb 1.5 Te 3 (p-type) and Bi 2 Te 2.7 Se 0.3 (n-type) thermoelectric thin films were deposited by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering method and patterned to form plane-type thermoelectric modules using lift-off tech…
In this paper, Eu(n+), Sm3+ doped Fe3O4 nanoparticles were prepared via solvothermal method, in which Ferric chloride is used as the iron source, and anhydrous EuCl3, SmCl3 as doping source. Eu, Sm valence in doped Fe3O4 nanoparticles, and effects of Eu, Sm doping amount on their structure, morphology, magnetic proper…
Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers were prepared by a needleless electrospinning method using three rotating fiber generators, cylinder, disc and coil. The effects of the spinneret shape on the electrospinning process and resultant fiber morphology were examined. The disc spinneret needed the lowest voltage to initiat…
Kenaf powder (KP) was incorporated into recycled high density polyethylene (rHDPE)/natural rubber (NR) blend using an internal mixer at 165°C and rotor speed of 50 rpm. The tensile strength and elongation at break of the composites decreased, while the tensile modulus increased with increasing filler loading. The wate…
The importance of hemicelluloses for the papermaking properties of pulp fibers is well documented. In the patent literature, it can be seen that there is also an interest in this type of modification of pulp fibers for use in absorption products. In this study, a Scandinavian softwood kraft pulp and a birch kraft pulp…
Estudos de caracterização de solos em regiões ainda pouco exploradas, além de disponibilizarem e ampliarem a base de informações sobre as mais distintas ordens de solos do território nacional, também permitem sistematizar informações sobre suas propriedades, que poderão servir de subsídio para o desenvolvimento de prá…
A novel method for rapid preparation of Bi2Te3 nano-sized powders with an average particle size of about 70 nm was developed. A starting powder mixture consisting of Bi2Te3 coarse particles of ∼5 mm was ground using cryogenic grinding in the liquid nitrogen. For comparison, the conventional high-energy ball milling wa…
We have demonstrated the direct the synthesis of graphene on SiO 2 substrates by transfer-free processes. An amorphous layer was sandwiched between a Ni layer and a SiO 2 /Si substrate, and then the sample was annealed under H 2 and Ar ambient. The measurements by scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy re…
An efficient method for achieving ultra-broadband near-infrared signal amplification is proposed employing potential Pr3+ doped UV-sensitive germanium tellurite (NZPGT) glass fiber. The corresponding 1D2 → 1G4 transition emission covers from 1280 to 1680 nm with a full-width at half-maximum of 140 nm, and the associat…
In the past decades, ferroelectric materials have attracted wide attention due to their applications in nonvolatile memory devices (NVMDs) rendered by the electrically switchable spontaneous polarizations. Furthermore, the combination of ferroelectric and nanomaterials opens a new route to fabricating a nanoscale memo…
The specific heat at constant pressure C(T) of bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) closed at their ends has been investigated in the temperature interval of 2–120 K. It is found that the curve C(T) has features near 5, 36, 80, and 100 K. The experimental results on the C(T) and the radial thermal expansi…
