A total of six nanotherapeutic formulations are already approved for medical use and more are in the approval pipeline currently. Despite the massive research effort in nanotherapeutic materials, there is relatively little information about the toxicity of these materials or the tools needed to assess this toxicity. R…
The effect of SiC concentration on the liquid and solid oxide phases formed during oxidation of ZrB 2 –SiC composites is investigated. Oxide‐scale features called convection cells are formed from liquid and solid oxide reaction products upon oxidation of the ZrB 2 –SiC composites. These convection cells form in the ou…
This paper focuses on the modeling and prediction of core losses in nonoriented magnetic materials of electrical machines. The aim is to investigate the accuracy, efficiency, and stability of certain models, including the commonly used and the advanced ones, and to discuss their advantages and disadvantages when they…
Several orders of magnitude of change in resistance are observed upon chemical doping and dedoping of the conducting polymer polyaniline. This large conductivity range can be utilized to make sensitive chemical sensors. Polyaniline, in its nanofiber form, has even greater sensing capabilities due to the small fiber di…
The aim of this work was to study the production of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) using agro- industrial residues as the carbon source. Seven substrates, viz., wheat bran, potato starch, sesame oil cake, groundnut oil cake, cassava powder, jackfruit seed powder and corn flour were hydrolyzed using commercial enzymes and t…
Abstract Objectives This review sheds insight into an increasingly popular polymer that has been widely explored as a potential drug delivery system. The abundant, biodegradable and biocompatible polysaccharide chitosan, with many other favourable properties, has been favoured as a drug delivery system for the purpose…
Abstract magnified image The efficient epoxidation of a broad range of olefins using hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) as the oxidant has been accomplished by a manganese catalyst that exhibits an uncommon chemoselectivity.
The thermal conductivity of several amorphous solids is numerically evaluated within the harmonic approximation from Kubo linear-response theory following the formalism developed by Allen and Feldman [Phys. Rev. B 48, 12581 (1993)]. The predictions are compared to the results of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations wit…
With the advancement of tablet manufacturing process, the demand of excipients with improved functionalities, mainly in terms of flow and compression properties, has increased. Coprocessed excipients are a mixture of two or more existing excipients at subparticle level, offer substantial benefits of the incorporated e…
Essential oil from Artemisia herba alba (Art) was hydrodistilled and tested as corrosion inhibitor of steel in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 using weight loss measurements and electrochemical polarization methods. Results gathered show that this natural oil reduced the corrosion rate by the cathodic action. Its inhibition efficiency…
It is well known that Raman scattering and fluorescence can be enhanced by the presence of metallic nanoparticles. Here, we derive simple equations to analyze the influence of metallic nanoparticles on upconversion processes such as nonradiative energy transfer or excited state absorption. We compare the resulting exp…
Native extracellular matrix (ECM) provides structural support to the multicellular organism on a macroscopic scale and establishes a unique microenvironment (niche) to tissue- and organ-specific cell types. Both these functions are critical for optimal function of the organism. These natural ECMs comprise predominantl…
There is an obvious need for obtaining a closed set of equations describing multiphase flows and the complexity of their configurations. Despite their “frozen” interfaces, suspensions of rigid particles are also concerned by this issue. The description of the relative motion between the two phases is still controversi…
Abstract Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and starch copolymers are obtained by reactive blending ‐ varying the starch compositions from 0 to 60%. PLA is functionalized with maleic anhydride (MA), obtaining PLA‐g‐MA copolymers using dicumyl peroxide as an initiator of grafting in order to improve the compatibility and interfac…
Force oscillation occurring during the tensile testing of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), resulting in periodical cavitation of the test specimens, has been studied. A mathematical model has been developed to describe the phenomenon, wherein special fibre bundles are assigned to the amorphous molecular chains. In…

Fluorinated surface groups were introduced into poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) coatings by plasma treatment using a low pressure radio frequency discharge operated with tetrafluoromethane. Substrates were placed in a remote position downstream the discharge. Discharge power and treatment time were tuned to alter the ch…
Peroxide cured hydrogenated acrylonitrile/butadiene rubber (HNBR) compounds with 20 parts per hundred rubber (phr) active fillers, such as carbon black (CB), multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and silica were produced and their friction and wear properties under unlubricated rolling and sliding conditions were evaluate…
In this investigation, a novel temperature-pH responsive copolymer was prepared by the radical copolymerization between 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate (HPA) and aminoethyl methacrylate hydrochloric salt (AMHS). The molecular structure of the corresponding copolymer has been confirmed by 1H NMR and FTIR measurements. The res…
