Influence of mechanical activation on functional properties of barium hexaferrite ceramics
(Elsevier, 2018)
Barium hexaferrite ceramics were prepared using mechanically activated mixtures of iron and barium titanate. The 60:40 mass% Fe:BaTiO3 powder mixtures were mechanically activated for different times (100–240 min) and ...
Polyethersulfone/poly(acrylic acid) composite hydrogel membrane reservoirs for controlled delivery of cationic drug formulations
(Elsevier, 2018)
We present the innovative synthesis of polyethersulfone/poly(acrylic acid) composite hydrogel membranes
performed by combining photoirradiation with a traditional liquid phase inversion process.
Fabricated membranes ...
Optical characterization of a novel miniature microwave ICP plasma source in nitrogen flow
(IOP Publishing, 2018)
Abstract A Miniature Microwave (MMW) Inductively Coupled Plasma Source (ICP) is characterized by optical emission spectroscopy and by optical imaging of nitrogen plasma. The MWW source operates in two different modes (H – ...
Assessment of Spasticity by a Pendulum Test in SCI Patients Who Exercise FES Cycling or Receive only Conventional Therapy
(IEEE, 2018)
Increased muscle tone and exaggerated tendon reflexes characterize most of the individuals after a spinal cord injury (SCI). We estimated seven parameters from the pendulum test and used them to compare with the Ashworth ...
Cell-selective toxicity of hydroxyapatite-chitosan oligosaccharide lactate particles loaded with a steroid cancer inhibitor
(Belgrade : Materials Research Society of Serbia, 2018)
The applicative potential of synthetic calcium phosphates, especially hydroxyapatite (HAp), has become intensely broadened in the past 10 years, from bone tissue engineering to multiple other fields of biomedicine. Hybrid ...
Fractal nature structure reconstruction method in designing microstructure properties
(Elsevier, 2018)
In the process of predicting materials properties, it is necessary to predict microstructures. This is important for ceramic materials, for the purpose of miniaturization and for a higher level of integration. Although the ...
Electrodeposited AgPd alloy coatings as efficient catalysts for the ethanol oxidation reaction
(Elsevier, 2018)
The Pd and three AgPd alloy layers (AgPd1, AgPd2 and AgPd3) were electrodeposited onto Au disc electrodes from the solution containing high concentration of chloride ions (>12 M). All coatings were investigated by ...
Chitosan oligosaccharide lactate coated hydroxyapatite nanoparticles as a vehicle for the delivery of steroid drugs and the targeting of breast cancer cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
Low targeting efficiency and fast metabolism of antineoplastic drugs are hindrances to effective chemotherapies and there is an ongoing search for better drugs, but also better carriers. Steroid derivatives, 3β-hydroxy-1 ...
Magnetically recoverable photocatalysts based on metal oxide nanostructures (Fe and Zn)
(ICCCI, 2018)
The synthesis of y-Fe203&ZnO hybrid nanocomposites has been carried out by a solvothermal process at low temperature evaluating the influence of different experimental parameters and conditions. Several techniques such as ...
Properties of the cement-based composites with high content of metakaolin
(Dordrecht : Springer, 2018)
Environmental concerns and sustainable development require increased replacement of cement. Most of previous studies have shown that the compressive strength of cement-based composites is maximized with a 20% content of ...
