Several researches and technologies on polymer recycling have been driven justified by the uncontrolled crescent waste generation in world. Herein, a critical concise review recent well-established practices for is presented, taking into account not only thermoplastics (or plastics) but also thermosets elastomers. Moreover, sorting characterization techniques are detailed their importance discussed. An in-depth analysis of literature indicated that novel advanced methods polymeric (PW)...
Poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) is commonly used to manufacture biomedical devices and hospital components, but it does not present antimicrobial activity enough prevent biofouling. With the emergence of new microorganisms viruses, such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that was responsible for global pandemic caused by Disease 2019 (COVID-19), evident importance development self-disinfectant PVC environments medical clinics where infected people remain a long time....
Industries and the scientific community currently focus on creating new ways to recycle reuse polymer waste that leads serious socio-environmental risks. However, quality of recycled polyethylenes depends strongly their purity degree, but distinction between Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) High (HDPE) by a fast consistently good methodology is still an unsolved issue for current recycling processes. In this study, confocal Raman spectroscopy Competitive Adaptive Reweighted Sampling - Partial...
The successful development of multifunctional cotton fabrics with antimicrobial and antiviral activities is essential to prevent the proliferation microorganisms transmission coronavirus virions today, especially emergence new variants SARS-CoV-2. In this work, we developed Ag/TiO2 nanoparticles synthesized via sonochemistry. Here, show that more than 50% infectious SARS-CoV-2 remain active after prolonged direct contact self-disinfecting materials capable inhibiting Escherichia coli...
The aim of our study was to produce and characterize poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) nanospheres containing essential oils from Zanthoxylum riedelianum fruit evaluate their stability gains as well insecticidal deterrent activities against whitefly (Bemisia tabaci). PCL exhibited a homogeneous spherical morphology, with particle diameters between 106.7 nm 129.2 nm, pH approximately 6, zeta potential (ZP) lower than -19.0 mV encapsulation efficiency higher 98%. Only 43% the nanoencapsulated oil...
Nanotechnology has been adopted to mimic a biological system design artificial nanostructures with properties suitable for advanced applications. In this way, bioinspired bactericidal surfaces surface nanostructured like insect wings display antimicrobial that undergo physicomechanical mechanism disrupts the microbial cells, inhibiting their growth and proliferation. Herein, we describe method nanocone patterns on of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) via one step argon plasma etching in presence...
Bioinspired bactericidal surfaces are artificial that mimic the nanotopography of insect wings and capable inhibiting microbial growth by a physicomechanical mechanism. The scientific community has considered them an alternative method to design polymers with inhibit bacterial biofilm formation, suitable for self-disinfectant medical devices. In this contribution, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) nanocone patterns was successfully produced novel two-step procedure involving copper plasma deposition...
Encapsulation via nanotechnology offers a potential method to overcome limited thermal and photo-stability of botanical pesticides. In this study, nanospheres essential oils (NSEO) derived from Zanthoxylum rhoifolium Lam. fruit were characterized evaluated for their photostability insecticidal activity against Bemisia tabaci. Three major compounds Z. fruits detected by CG-MS: β-phellandrene (76.8%), β-myrcene (9.6%), germacrene D (8.3%). The nanoprecipitation was used obtain homogeneous...
