Structure Formation in Soft-Matter Solutions Induced by Solvent Evaporation

Porous Fiber Formation in Polymer-Solvent System Undergoing Solvent Evaporation

Structuring of polymer solutions upon solvent evaporation.

The morphology of solution-cast, phase-separated polymers becomes finer with increasing solvent evaporation rate. We address this observation theoretically for a model polymer where demixing is induced by steady solvent evaporation. In contrast to what is the case for a classical, thermal quench involving immiscible blends, the spinodal instability initially develops slowly and the associated l...

‏‎suppression of coke formation in thermal cracking by coke inhibitors‎‏

‏‎the main purpose of this research was to:1.develop a coking model for thermal cracking of naphtha.2.study coke inhibition methods using different coke inhibitors.developing a coking model in naphtha cracking reactors requires a suitable model of the thermal cracking reactor based on a reliable kinetic model.to obtain reliable results all these models shall be solved simultaneously.for this pu...

Formation of organic nanoparticles by solvent evaporation within porous polymeric materials.

A simple and generic method is developed to form organic nanoparticles in porous materials by solvent evaporation. The composites can be readily dissolved in water to produce aqueous organic nanoparticle dispersions.

Preparation of risedronate nanoparticles by solvent evaporation technique.

One approach for the enhancement of oral drug bioavailability is the technique of nanoparticle preparation. Risedronate sodium (Biopharmaceutical Classification System Class III) was chosen as a model compound with high water solubility and low intestinal permeability. Eighteen samples of risedronate sodium were prepared by the solvent evaporation technique with sodium dodecyl sulfate, polysorb...
