Montmorillonite Nanocomposite Hydrogel Based on Poly(acrylicacid-co-acrylamide): Polymer Carrier for Controlled Release Systems

In this paper, the synthesis of new montmorillonite nanocomposite hydrogel (MMTNH) based on poly (acrylic acid-co-acrylamide) grafted onto starch, is described. Montmorillonite (MMT) as nanometer base, acrylic acid (AA) and acrylamide (AAm) as monomers, ammonium persulfate (APS) as an initiator, N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinker and starch as a biocompatible polymer were pre...

SIMULATING CONTINUOUS FUZZY SYSTEMS: I

In previous studies we first concentrated on utilizing crisp simulationto produce discrete event fuzzy systems simulations. Then we extendedthis research to the simulation of continuous fuzzy systems models. In this paperwe continue our study of continuous fuzzy systems using crisp continuoussimulation. Consider a crisp continuous system whose evolution depends ondifferential equations. Such a ...

Numerical investigation of glassy dynamics in low-density systems.

Vitrification in colloidal systems typically occurs at high densities driven by sharply varying, short-ranged interactions. The possibility of glassy behavior arising from smoothly varying, long-ranged particle interactions has received relatively little attention. Here we investigate the behavior of screened charged particles, and explicitly demonstrate that these systems exhibit glassy proper...
