A Multi-Scale Approach to Microencapsulation by Interfacial Polymerization

Microencapsulation of Ethion by Interfacial Polymerization Utilizing Potassium Phthalimide-N-oxyl (PPINO) as a Promoter

Pickering emulsion templated interfacial atom transfer radical polymerization for microencapsulation.

This Article describes a new microencapsulation method based on a Pickering emulsion templated interfacial atom transfer radical polymerization (PETI-ATRP). Cationic LUDOX CL nanoparticles were coated electrostatically with an anionic polymeric ATRP initiator, poly(sodium styrene sulfonate-co-2-(2-bromoisobutyryloxy)ethyl methacrylate) (PSB), prepared by radical copolymerization of sodium styre...

A MULTI-SCALE APPROACH TO FED-BATCH BIOREACTOR CONTROL by

A MULTI-SCALE APPROACH TO FED-BATCH BIOREACTOR CONTROL Abhishek Soni , M.S. University of Pittsburgh The rising energy costs, increased global competition in terms of both price and quality, and the need to make products in an environmentally benign manner have paved the way for the biological route towards manufacturing. Many of the products obtained by the biological route either cannot be pr...

Porous POSS-PANI nanofibre from interfacial polymerization and hydrothermal approach

Nowadays, novel applications for polyaniline (PANI) make new demands on its morphology controlling, and designing novel PANI or PANI composite polymeric materials has been more and more attractive. In this work, octaaminophenyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) was employed to prepare nanostructured PANI composites via controlled fabrication. By interfacial copolymerization, fibrous n...

A Multi-scale Approach to Nonuniform Diffusion

A Multi-scale Approach to Nonuniform Diffusion Ross T. Whitaker and Stephen M. Pizer Department of Computer Science, University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, NC, 27514 This paper examines a new method of image processing that combines information at multiple scales in order to locate boundaries. This method employs a technique of edge-affected diffusion, where blurring is limited by the presen...
