Biodegradable polymers have become the materials of choice for a variety of biomedical applications. In particular, poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles have been studied as a material for drug delivery with the ...

Electrochemically formed thin film polyaniline (PANI) anode and lead dioxide (PbO2) cathode, obtained from sulfuric acid solution, for potential applications as electrode materials in PANI|H2SO4|PbO2 aqueous based rechargeable ...

Doped barium-titanate ceramic is attracting much interest for its application as resistors with a positive temperature coefficient of resistivity (PTCR), multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC), thermal sensors etc. In this ...

Ceramics for electronics play an important role in several industrial sectors. The most common way of producing these ceramics is through sintering processes from powders. The powders can be treated by mechanical activation; ...

A novel uniaxial anemometer was created using a NTC thick film segmented thermistor to measure wind speed and direction. The anemometer operated on the principle of heat loss caused by the air volume flow and air speed. A ...

A single p-type crystal of the mineral, pyrite (FeS2) was characterized photoacoustically using the transmission detection configuration. Photoacoustic (PA) amplitude and phase spectra were measured using a specially ...

Far infrared reflectivity spectra of single crystal PbTe doped with Bi were measured and numerically analyzed using a fitting procedure based on a modified plasmon-phonon interaction model with two additional oscillators ...

Nanocrystalline calcium phosphates (NC CP) are suitable for the synthesis of CP/bioresorbable polymer composite biomaterials for the application in bone engineering. There are different forms of NC CP/ bioresorbable polymers ...

Nanocrystalline cubic titanium monoxide, TiOx (0.92 < x < 1.19), with mean crystallite size of ≈ 6 nm, was synthesized by mechanochemical treatment of Ti and TiO2 (rutile) powder mixtures with molar ratios of 1:1, ...

Powder mixtures of α-Bi2O3 (bismite) and monoclinic m-ZrO2 (baddeleyite) in the molar ratio 2:3 were mechanochemically and thermally treated with the goal to examine the phases, which may appear during such procedures. The ...
