Oxygen diffusion into polystyrene-bentonite films
(Elsevier, 2009)
A simple fluorescence technique is proposed for the measurement of the diffusion coefficient of oxygen into polystyrene-clay composite films. The composite films were prepared from the mixture of surfactant-free pyrene ...
In situ steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique to study drying of PAAm hydrogels made of various cross-linker contents
(Elsevier Science, 2009)
Drying experiments of polyacrylamide (PAAm) gels were performed using steady-state fluorescence (SSF) spectrometer. Pyranine (P) was introduced as a fluorescence probe and intensity of P from various crosslinker content ...
Steady state fluorescence technique for studying phase transitions in PAAm-PNIPA mixture
(Taylor & Francis, 2009)
The steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique was used to study the sol-gel phase transition during free radical crosslinking copolymerisation of various amounts of acrylamide (AAm) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) mixtures. ...
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 ...
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 ...
