Self-photopolymerizable hydrogel-ceramic composites with scavenger properties
(MDPI, 2022-03-21)
The photocatalytic behaviours of semiconductive ceramic nanoparticles such as TiO2, ZnO, Fe2O3, and Fe3O4, have been extensively studied in photocatalysis and photopolymerization, due to their ability to produce radical ...
Alfa fiber/polypropylene composites: Influence of fiber extraction method and chemical treatments.
(Wiley, 2019-01)
Alfa fiber/polypropylene composites were manufactured using twin-screw extrusion. Fibers were extracted following alkaline and steam explosion methods. Three chemical treatments were also applied to alkaline extracted ...
Effect of Chemical Treatments and HDPE-g-MA on the physical and mechanical behaviour of HDPE/ natural fibre composites.
(2013)
Many authors have reported on the use of natural fibres (raw or chemically modified) as
reinforcing elements for high density polyethylene (HDPE). These materials have generated a lot of
interest due to their low cost ...
Investigation of the effects of orientation on freeze/thawed Polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel properties.
(Elsevier, 2018-12)
Although hydrogels produced via freeze-thawing (F/T) technique have been thoroughly studied in literature, stretching hydrogels in between freeze-thawing cycles could change its properties and might be modulated for drug ...

Material considerations for fused-filament fabrication of solid dosage forms.
(MDPI, 2018-04-02)
Material choice is a fundamental consideration when it comes to designing a solid dosage form. The matrix material will ultimately determine the rate of drug release since the physical properties (solubility, viscosity, ...
Characteristics of the treated calcium carbonate particles with stearic acid using different treating methods.
(Elsevier, 2016-08)
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is often treated with stearic acid (SA) to decrease its polarity. However, the method of application of the SA treatments has a strong influence on their interface structure and distribution. ...
Process optimization for the 3D printing of PLA and HNT composites with Arburg plastic freeforming
(MDPI, 2022-10-12)
The industrial use of additive manufacturing continues to rapidly increase as new technology
developments become available. The Arburg plastic freeforming (APF) process is designed to
utilize standard polymeric granules ...
3D printed polymers are less stable than injection moulded counterparts when exposed to terminal sterilization processes using novel vaporized hydrogen peroxide and electron beam processes.
(Elsevier, 2019-11-21)
There is an increasing trend for use of 3D printing processes in healthcare due in part to emergence of customised medical devices and associated low manufacturing cost. However, there is a dearth of knowledge on the ...
Photopolymerization for filling porous ceramic matrix: improvement of mechanical properties and drug delivering behaviour.
(Wiley, 2019-04)
This work presents the photopolymerisation of composite scaffolds where a prefabricated ceramic scaffold was impregnated with poly(ethylene) glycol dimethacrylate (PEGDMA) macromonomer solution. The PEGDMA solution penetrates ...
