Abstract Leptospirosis is a worldwide zoonosis caused by pathogenic bacteria of the genus Leptospira. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is an immunodominant and protective antigen for Leptospira, but its biosynthesis remains poor...

Abstract Photoinitiated polymerization of methyl methacrylate has been observed using cw-CO2 laser radiation of (10.6 µm). Both of DSC and TGA thermal analysis techniques were used for identification of the thermal char...

Abstract The massive production of plastics, together with inadequate waste management, has intensified the problem of plastic pollution. Recently, the scientific community has increasingly investigated the interactions ...

Abstract The glass transition temperature ( $$\:{T}_{g}$$ ) is a pivotal parameter for amorphous polymers, influencing their behavior under different thermal properties. Assessing $$\:{T}_{g}$$ is crucial for evaluating ...

This study investigated the potential of polyvinylpyrrolidone-grafted graphene (PGR) for secondary reinforcement of SBS and microwave-activated crumb rubber (ACR) modified asphalt, aiming to clarify the underlying mechan...

Metal/polymer nanocomposites have attracted much attention in recent years due to their exceptional properties and wide range of potential applications. A key challenge to obtain these materials is to stabilize the metal...

ABSTRACTThe objective of this experiment was to quantify the effects of feeding polymer-coated slow-release urea on nutrient intake and total tract digestion, milk yield and composition, nutrient balances, ruminal fermen...

Abstract In this paper, an in-depth study of the electrical and optical characteristics of Polymer Light Emitting Diodes ITO/PEDOT: PSS/DP-PPV derivatives/Al(Ca) is presented. Three polymer materials are considered; poly...

Based on the principles of fractal approach and synergy of structure formation processes modeled in polymer ausketykah based on thermoplastic polyurethane filled with powder of iron (Fe), molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W)...

Abstract Aim (Background) The purpose of the current in vitro study was to evaluate and compare the marginal adaptation and fracture resistance of CAD/CAM VITA ENAMIC hybrid ceramic and, 3D printed Nanoksa G-PLUS high-pe...

Micro-capillaries with an engineered hidden surface were produced via the self-rolling of polymer thin films whose surface was photochemically modified so as to coat it with silver nanoparticles. The polymer films consis...

Simultaneous realization of high quality factor (Q), sensitivity, and figure of merit (FOM) play a pivotal role in building the THz sensor. For such purpose, we propose an all-polymeric Bloch surface wave (BSW) structure...

Two different approaches are used to produce conducting polymer nano-objects. One is a “top-down” approach which involves laser ablation of conducting polymer films using laser light interference patterns (direct las...

We describe polymer diffusion and its temperature dependence in poly(vinyl acetate-co-dibutyl maleate) [P(VAc-DBM)] latex films prepared from 4:1 w/w ratio of VAc:DBM. Two sets of polymers were investigated: one set cont...

The anti-wear properties of polymer composites based on polytetrafluoroethylene with not metallizedand metallized carbon fibers in conditions of friction and wear in over limit and limit of specific loads havebeen resear...

There is one established, that glycerol’s injection in (7,0 ÷ 15,0) % of mass. amount into polymer blend of polypropylene/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PP/PVA) of mass equation 30/70 % is not changing the structure forming c...

In this study, we investigated the thermal stability of polymer networks, which plays an important role in the function of polymer network-liquid crystal composite films. A glass transition temperature of the polymer net...

Abstract Understanding and controlling the marine degradation of biodegradable polymers is crucial for sustainable materials engineering and pollution prevention. However, a unified interpretive method that links multisc...

The integration of ultrasonic energy into polymer melt processing enables control of melt-state dynamics and microstructure evolution in thermoplastic systems. By superimposing high-frequency mechanical vibrations onto c...

Implants prepared with polymer blends [poly (e-caprolactone)-poly(lactide), PCL-PLA] at different rates were developed from microspheres. Approximately 19% of dexamethasone acetate was encapsulated into the microsphere...
