Degradable nanocomposites for fused filament fabrication applications.
(MDPI, 2018-05-09)
There has been a substantial increase in the use and development of plastics over the
last century. However, due to ever-diminishing petroleum feedstocks and growing concern for the
environment, there has been a rise in ...
Review of multifarious applications of Poly (lactic acid)
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Poly (lactic acid) is considered to be a promising alternative to petroleum-based polymers due to its renewability, biodegradability, biocompatibility, and good mechanical properties. Because of the high cost, the applications ...
Surface modified halloysite nanotubes reinforced polylactic acid for use in biodegradable coronary stents.
(Wiley, 2019-08)
Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was reinforced halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) in this study. To improve dispersion and interfacial adhesion of HNTs within the PLA matrix, HNTs were surface modified with 3‐aminopropyltriethoxysilane ...
Additive manufacturing of personalized pharmaceutical dosage forms via stereolithography.
(MDPI, 2019-12-03)
The introduction of three-dimensional printing (3DP) has created exciting possibilities for
the fabrication of dosage forms, paving the way for personalized medicine. In this study, oral dosage
forms of two drug ...
Halloysite nanotube reinforced polylactic acid composite.
(Wiley, 2017-10)
Polylactic acid (PLA) has long history in medical applications, and reinforced PLA has the potential to be used in the medical applications that require high mechanical strength such as coronary stents and bone fixation ...
