A rapid increase in the atmospheric temperature has been reported recent years worldwide. The lack of proper aid to protect from exposure sun during working hours raised number sunburn cases among workers. It is important promote productive workplaces without compromising safety and health concerns. In present work, we report low-temperature plasma (LTP)-assisted tailoring surface properties fabrics reflect IR radiation sun. LTP technique can be adapted for thermally sensitive materials such...
The design of metal nanoparticle-modified polymer surfaces in a green and scalable way is both desirable highly challenging. Herein, new low-temperature plasma-based situ surface reduction strategy termed plasma electroless (PER) reported for achieving metallic nanostructuring on surfaces. Proof concept this method was first demonstrated hydrophilic cellulose papers. Cellulose papers were dip-coated with different ion (Ag+ Au3+) solutions then subjected to hydrogen treatment PER process....
Abstract Owing to its superior bulk mechanical properties, poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK) has gained popularity over the past 15 years as a metal substitute in biomedical implants. Low surface energy is fundamental issue with PEEK This low caused by moderately hydrophobic may be able inhibit cellular adherence and result development of an inflammatory response, which cell necrosis apoptosis. In this work, plasma ozone treatments have been utilized activate graft ionic bioactive polymer...
Osteoblastic and chemical responses to Poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK) material have been improved using a variety of low-temperature plasmas (LTPs). Surface properties are modified, can be used, plasma (LTP) treatments which change surface functional groups. These groups increase biomineralization, in simulated body fluid conditions, cellular viability. PEEK scaffolds were treated, with LTPs, incubated fluids, then analyzed multiple techniques. First, scanning electron microscopy (SEM)...
Materiobiology is an emerging field focused on the physiochemical properties of biomaterials concerning biological outcomes which includes but not limited to responses and bioactivity surface-modified biomaterials.
