Fractal Dimensions of kappa-Carrageenan Gels during Gelation and Swelling
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
A photon scattering technique for research on the sol-gel and gel-sol transitions in kappa-carrageenan-water systems with various carrageenan contents (CC) was utilized for characterizing the fractal dimensions during ...
Electrical and optical percolations in PMMA/GNP composite films
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018)
Effects of graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) addition on the electrical conductivity and optical absorbance of poly(methyl methacrylate)/graphene nanoplatelet (PMMA/GNP) composite films were studied. Optical absorbance and two ...
Optical energy band gap of PAAm-GO composites
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
Graphene oxide (GO) can be used as an electron acceptor for polymers. The generation of the exciton in such materials is intimately related to the optical band gap. Polyacrylamide (PAAm) - graphene oxide (GO) composites ...
Temperature Effect on the Elasticity of Acrylamide-n-Isopropylacrylamide Copolymers
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
Acrylamide (AAm) - N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) copolymers were prepared via free radical crosslinking copolymerization with various weight percentages (wt%) of AAm and NIPA. The temperature dependence of the compressive ...
Mechanical properties of graphene oxide-polyacrylamide composites before and after swelling in water
(Springer, 2018)
Polyacrylamide (PAAm) hydrogels have been proposed for use as promising biomaterials in biomedical and tissue engineering but their poor mechanical and water-retention properties have hindered their development. Graphene ...
Mathematical Characterization of Thermo-reversible Phase Transitions of Agarose Gels
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
The thermal phase transition temperatures of high (HMP) and low melting point (LMP) agarose gels were investigated by using UV-vis spectroscopy techniques. Transmitted light intensities from the gel samples with different ...
