Abstract Hydroxyapatite/poly‐ L ‐lactide (HAp/PLLA) is a ceramic/polymer composite, whose application as resorbable biomaterial for the substitution and repair of hard bone tissue widely promising in orthopedic, oral, maxillofacial, reconstructive surgery. Hot processing necessary step obtaining HAp/PLLA composite blocks with mechanical properties similar to those bones. In this article, changes structure physicochemical hot pressed different pressing times (5, 15, 30, 45, 60 min), were...
Abstract Thermal decomposition of PEO under vacuum was used in combination with a glow discharge to deposit PEO‐like plasma polymer films. Evaporation without allows the deposition films chemical composition very close that original PEO, albeit lower average molar mass. The application during evaporation leads enhancement crosslinking within films, yet at expense reduced retention ether structure. Non‐fouling properties and thrombogenicity polymers were studied terms adhesion blood proteins...
We investigated the effect of two ionic surfactants on composition and structure hydrogels obtained by swelling an epoxy amphiphilic polymer network (APN) using a combination gravimetry small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Stoichiometric APN was synthesized reaction diamino diepoxy-terminated polypropylene (POP) polyoxyethylene (POE). Sub- supercritical solutions with either cationic (myristyltrimethylammonium bromide (C14TAB)) or anionic (sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)) headgroups in heavy...
The electromechanical behavior of isotropic dielectrics with emphasis on cross-linked polymers (elastomers) as a special case is briefly discussed. Errors often committed in the derivation expressions used interpretation experimental results are pointed out.
The microstructure of compression molded Estane 5703 films exposed to 11%, 45%, and 80% relative humidity 70 °C for 1 2 months has been studied by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Scattering data indicated increase the interdomain distance domain size with a higher longer aging time. GPC showed progressive shortening polyurethane chains increasing caused drop...
Since the time of Faraday's experiments, optical response plasmonic nanofluids has been tailored by shape, size, concentration, and material nanoparticles (NPs), or mixing different types NPs. To date, water-based liquids have most extensively investigated host media, while polymers, such as poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), frequently added to introduce repulsive steric interactions protect NPs from agglomeration. Here, we an inverse system non-aqueous nanofluids, in which Ag Cu are dispersed...
Dielectric spectra of binary composites consisting equal-sized hard disks one dielectric dispersed randomly in a matrix another are modeled two dimensions using the finite-element method. The effects volume fraction and difference component permittivities ohmic conductivities on effective behavior resulting composite discussed. Numerical results compared with predicted few mixture formulas chosen. For this type composites, comparison shows, that region compositions properties explored,...
The gamma irradiation induced aging of thermoplastic polymer Estane 5703 in air and water environments was studied by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), X-ray diffraction (XRD). degree phase mixing increased after irradiation, accompanied the increase domain distance decrease size. hard from 9.8 to 11.2 nm 14.4 for samples irradiated with a dose up 500 kGy, respectively. GPC results indicated progressive...

Abstract A gas‐phase deposition process based on the combination of nanoparticles (NPs) and thin films is developed to obtain either superhydrophobic or superamphiphilic nanocomposite coatings filtration membranes. Superhydrophobic membranes are produced nonwoven viscose fabric they demonstrate selective absorption nonpolar organic solvents from oil/water mixtures. Superamphiphilic carbon cloth found suitable for smart separation light oil heavy water, with efficiency above 99.97%....
Immiscible polymer blends tend to undergo phase separation with the formation of nanoscale architecture which can be used in a variety applications. Different wet-chemistry techniques already exist fix resultant polymeric structure predictable manner. In this work, an all-dry and plasma-based strategy is proposed fabricate thin films microphase-separated polyolefin/polyether blends. This achieved by directing (−CH2−)100 (−CH2–CH2–O−)25 oligomer fluxes produced vacuum thermal decomposition...
