Silicone-polyether Copolymers as New Steam Turbine Oil Demulsifiers
Turbine oil plays an important role in supporting optimal steam turbine performance. Some additives in turbine oil can cause emulsification when the oil is contaminated by water, so demulsibility is a very important property of the steam turbine oil. In order to improve the demulsibility of steam turbine oil, two kinds of polyether-silicone comb copolymers are synthesized and used as steam turb...
متن کاملEvaluation of Polyether sulfone/nanohydroxyapatite nanofiber composite as bone graft materials
Nanofiber mats of polyether sulfone/nano hydroxyapatite (PES/nHA) were prepared by electrospinning technique. The fabricated composites were characterized using FTIR, XRD and SEM. The composite nanofiber mats were subjected to in vitro biological studies namely bioactivity, haemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. The XRD analysis showed an increase in the amorphous nature of the composite wit...
متن کاملPolyethyleneimine Capped Silver Nanoclusters as Efficient Antibacterial Agents.
Development of efficient antibacterial agents is critical for human health. In the present study, we investigated the antibacterial activity of polyethyleneimine (PEI)-capped silver nanoclusters (PEI-AgNCs), based on the fact that nanoclusters normally have higher surface-to-volume ratios than traditional nanomaterials and PEI itself has a strong antimicrobial capacity. We synthesized stable si...
متن کاملGene Expression and Pulmonary Toxicity of Chitosan-graft-Polyethylenimine as Aerosol Gene Carrier
Chitosan-graft-polyethylenimine (CHI-g-PEI) copolymer has been used for theimprovement of low transfection efficiency of chitosan. The present study aims to test thepulmonary toxicity and efficiency of CHI-g-PEI as an aerosol gene carrier. Mice were exposedto aerosol containing green-fluorescent protein (GFP)-polyethylenimine (PEI) or GFP-CHIg-PEI complexes for 30 min during the development of ...
