Conducting Polymer Nanocomposites for Anticorrosive and Antistatic Applications

Intrinsically conducting polymers (ICPs) have been considered for use in various applica‐ tions. One of the most important applications of these materials which are attracting consid‐ erable attention in the most recent times is in corrosion protection of oxidizable metals [1]. The effective use of conducting polymers for corrosion protection of metals can be carried out by different methods; l...

Rapid, chemical-free breaking of microfluidic emulsions with a hand-held antistatic gun

Droplet microfluidics can form and process millions of picoliter droplets with speed and ease, allowing the execution of huge numbers of biological reactions for high-throughput studies. However, at the conclusion of most experiments, the emulsions must be broken to recover and analyze their contents. This is usually achieved with demulsifiers, like perfluorooctanol and chloroform, which can in...

Application of Nano-ZnO on Antistatic Finishing to the Polyester Fabric

On study of X-ray absorption and properties of dispersion of W, MoS2 and B4C particles in high density polyethylene

Shielding radiation from both x-rays and gamma-rays is important for personnel in medical fields e.g. interventional radiology, nuclear power stations, and other inspection facilities where radiation is involved. Lead is known for its effective shielding property against these high energy radiations, however heaviness and toxicity are its main drawback. In this study effectiveness of non-lead p...

Immobilization of Rhizomucor miehei Lipase on High Density Polyethylene

 Immobilization of Lipase produced from Rhizomucor miehei on HDPE fine powder was investigated. As compared to an aqueous system, immobilization in a non-aquous organic medium such as n-hexane was not successful and caused enzyme denaturation. Prewetting the support with ethanol increased the immobilized protein and enzyme activity as much as 31% and 34%, respectively. The maximum immobilized a...
