Phase Transitions in Pure and Hybrid Hydrogels: A Fluorescence Study
(Wiley, 2009)
Recent observations on phase transitions around the critical point showed that the critical exponents differed drastically from percolation results and classical results for pure hydrogel systems depending on monomer ...
A Fluorescence Study on Swelling of Hydrogels (PAAm) at Various Cross-Linker Contents
(Wiley, 2009)
Disk-shaped acrylamide (AAm) gels were prepared from AAm with various NN'-methylenebisacrylamide (Bis) contents as cross-linker in the presence of ammonium persulfate as an initiator by free-radical cross-linking ...
Mathematical models for phase transitions in biogels
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2019-03-30)
It has been shown that reversible and irreversible phase transitions of biogels can be represented by epidemic models. The irreversible chemical sol-gel transitions are modeled by the Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed ...
Elastic Properties of a Swollen PAAm-NIPA Copolymer with Various NIPA Contents
(Taylor & Francis, 2014)
Copolymer based on cross-linked polyacrylamide (PAAm) having N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) was prepared and their elastic properties were studied as a function of NIPA contents. NIPA content dependency of the shear modulus ...
Measurement of oxygen diffusion in PS/PNIPAM films using fluorescence quenching
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015)
The diffusion of oxygen into pyrene labelled polystyrene (PS) latex/poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) composite films (PS/PNIPAM) was studied based on PS content with the use of fluorescence quenching method. Fluorescence ...
A comparison of fluorescence and UV-visible spectrometry techniques for thermal phase transitions of agarose gels
(Springer, 2015)
In this study thermoreversible phase transitions of high (HMP) and low (LMP) melting point agarose gels were investigated by using the UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy techniques. Pyranine was added to the aqueous ...
Percolation of glassy regions during photopolymerization of epoxy acrylate in DMF
(Elsevier Science SA, 2015)
The gelation of epoxy acrylate (EA) 80% and tripropyleneglycol diacrylate (TPGDA) 20% was studied through the use of photo-differential scanning calorimetric (photo-DSC) technique in the presence of a thioxanthone based ...
Kinetic models for the dynamical behavior of polyacrylamide (PAAm)-kappa-carrageenan (kappa C) composite gels
(Springer, 2015)
A fluorescence method was employed for studying the drying and swelling of PAAm-kappa C composite gels which were formed from acrylamide (AAm) and N N'- methylenebisacrylamide (BIS) with various kappa-carrageenan (kappa ...
Study of Film Formation From PS Latex/TiO2 NanocompositesEffect of Latex Size and TiO2 Content
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
In this work we investigated the film formation from polystyrene (PS) latex/TiO2 nanocomposites using the steady state fluorescence (SSF) and UV-vis (UVV) techniques depending on PS particle size and TiO2 content. The ...
Fluorescence study of film formation from PS/Al2O3 nanocomposites
(Elsevier Science, 2014)
Steady state fluorescence (SSF) and UV-vis (UVV) techniques were used to study the film formation behavior of pyrene (P) labeled polystyrene (PS) latex and Al2O3 (PS/Al2O3) composites depending on PS particles size and ...
