Anticoagulant activity of cellulose nanocrystals from isora plant fibers assembled on cellulose and sio2 substrates via a layer-by-layer approach
Mohan T.; Chirayil C.J.; Nagaraj C.; Bracic M.; Steindorfer T.A.; Krupa I.; Al Maadeed M.A.A.; Kargl R.; Thomas S.; Kleinschek K.S.... more authors ... less authors ( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)In this study, we report the isolation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from Isora plant fibers by sulfuric acid hydrolysis and their assembly on hydrophilic cellulose and silicon-di-oxide (SiO2) surfaces via a layer-by-layer ... -
Chemical modification of graphene with grape seed extract: Its structural, optical and antimicrobial properties
Yaragalla S.; Rajendran R.; AlMaadeed M.A.; Kalarikkal N.; Thomas S. ( Elsevier Ltd , 2019 , Article)Herein, we modified for the first time thermally reduced graphene oxide (TRG) using grape seed extract (GSE), by simple probe sonication method. The effect of GSE on the structural changes of TRG has been carefully analyzed ... -
Developing Polyaniline Filled Isoprene Composite Fibers by Electrospinning: Effect of Filler Concentration on the Morphology and Glass Transition
Deepalekshmi Ponnamma; Sadasivuni K.K.; Al-Maadeed M.A.A.; Thomas S. ( Pleiades Publishing , 2019 , Article)Abstract: Sub micron and nano level fibers are produced from the polymer melts by applying an external electric field during electrospinning; however very few studies are reported on elastomer scaffolds formed by this ... -
