Light-Responsive Hybrids Based on Carbon Nanotubes with Covalently Attached PHEMA- g-PCL Brushes
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article)
Carbon nanotube (CNT)-based materials allow for the direct conversion of light into heat and then into mechanical force in the so-called photo-mechanical effect. This effect has been observed almost solely in the form of ...
Foamy phase change materials based on linear low-density polyethylene and paraffin wax blends
(
Springer Nature
, 2018 , Article)
Foamy phase-change materials (FPCMs) based on linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) blended with 30 wt.% of paraffin wax (W) were successfully prepared for the first time. The advantage of these materials is their double ...
Dry sliding tribological properties of a hard anodized aa6082 aluminum alloy
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
The applications of aluminum and its alloys are still limited by low hardness and low wear resistance properties. Surface modifications, such anodizing and plasma electrolytic oxidation, represent a feasible way to overcome ...
Electrospun Polystyrene/PANI-Ag fibers for organic dye removal and antibacterial application
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
Herein we report superior dye-degradation performance for polyaniline-silver (PANI-Ag) nanoparticle coated on polystyrene (PS) electrospun membrane by in situ-polymerization method. Morphological study of the coated membrane ...
Fabrication of flexible electrically conductive polymer-based micropatterns using plasma discharge
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
In this work, laboratory prepared PANI and it's composite with carbon nanotubes (PANI/CNTs) were used for the fabrication of micropatterns on flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate using the drop cast method ...
Friction and wear response of a hard-anodized aa6082
(
Trans Tech Publications Ltd
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
The properties of anodized aluminum, and wear resistance in particular, are of high interest for the scientific community. In this study, discs of AA6082 were subjected to a peculiar hard anodizing process leading to ...
Surface modification of low-density polyethylene with poly(2-ethyl-2- oxazoline) using a low-pressure plasma treatment
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is a suitable polymer for biomedical applications due to its good physiochemical properties, but its insufficient biocompatibility is often an issue. Therefore, biocompatible substances such ...
Antibacterial treatment of LDPE with halogen derivatives via cold plasma
(
BME-PT and GTE
, 2015 , Article)
The factor limiting the application of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) in healthcare is its high susceptibility to bacterial growth. For this reason, we here investigated antibacterial treatments of LDPE foils using ...
Multi-functional wet-electrospun piezoelectric nanofibers sensing mat: Manufacturing, characterization, and applications
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2023 , Article)
This paper introduces the fabrication of multi-featured nanofibers membranes using wet-electrospinning process. Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofibers were wet-electrospun onto poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly ...
Adhesive properties of polyester treated by cold plasma in oxygen and nitrogen atmospheres
(2013 , Article)
Polyester foil was treated by the surface diffuse barrier discharge (SDBD) plasma at atmospheric pressure in oxygen and/or in nitrogen containing a small amount of oxygen to improve its surface and adhesive properties. ...
