Critical Exponents of Thermal Phase Transitions of kappa-Carrageenan in Various Salt Solutions
(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2009)
The steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique was employed to study the phase transitions Of kappa-carrageenan in NaCl and KCl solutions. Pyranine was used as a fluorescence probe for monitoring these transitions. Scattered ...
Oxygen Diffusion into Polymer-Clay Composite Films as a Function of Clay Content and Temperature
(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2009)
A simple fluorescence technique is proposed for the measurement of the diffusion coefficient of oxygen into polystyrene-clay composite films as a function of clay content and temperature. The composite films were prepared ...
Critical Exponents of Photoinitiated Gelation at Different Light Intensities
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2009)
A photo-differential scanning calorimetric (Photo-DSC) technique was used to study the photoinitiated radical polymerization of a 75% epoxy diacrylate (EA) and 25% tripropyleneglycoldiacrylate (TPGDA) mixture with ...
Critical Exponents of Kappa Carrageenan in the Coil-Helix and Helix-Coil Hysteresis Loops
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2009)
The steady-state fluorescence technique was used to study coil-helix (sol-gel) and helix-coil (gel-sol) transitions of the kappa carrageenan-water system with various carrageenan contents. Fluorescence (I) and scattered ...
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 ...
Surfactant and Metal Ion Effects on the Mechanical Properties of Alginate Hydrogels
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016)
This paper addresses the controlled variation of the mechanical properties of alginate gel beads by changing the alginate concentration or by adding different surfactants or cross-linking cations. Alginate beads containing ...
Universality in gelation of epoxy acrylate with various photoinitiators: a photo differential scanning calorimetric study
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2008)
Photo-differential scanning calorimetric (Photo-DSC) technique was used to study the gelation of P-3038 (epoxy acrylate (EA) 75% and tripropyleneglycoldiacrylate (TPGDA) 25%) in the presence of various thioxanthone-based ...
Slow release of trapped homopolymers from a swelling polymeric gel: A fluorescence study
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2008)
In-situ steady-state fluorescence experiments were performed for studying slow release of pyrene-labeled polystyrene chains from polystyrene gels formed by free-radical crosslinking copolymerization. Atom transfer radical ...
Tailoring The Electrical and Optical Properties of Carbon Nanotube Reinforced Transparent Tio 2 Composites by Varying Nanotube Concentrations
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2019)
In the present work multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-doped TiO 2 nanocomposite films were synthesized by sol-gel method. The influence of nanotube concentration on the structural electrical and optical properties of ...
