Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of Gelation Time of Nanostructured Polymer Gels by Central Composite Approach

Currently available polymers as a component of in-situ gels are unsuitable for treating high-temperature/high-salinity reservoirs due to their chemical and thermal degradation. In this study, a new copolymer-based gel system including high molecular weight nanostructured polymers (NSPs) was developed to address the excessive water production problem in reservoirs under harsh conditions. The sta...

Emulsion Polymers of Core-Shell Styrene-Butyl Acrylate: The Effect of Feeding and Aging Time on Particle Size Distribution

Core-shell polymers in the particle size range 200–300 nm having a monodisperse distribution and opal color are prospective materials for coating applications. The emulsion polymerization of the core-shell was done using two monomers with significantly different refractive indices styrene for the hard monomers and butyl acrylate for the soft monomers. The feeding and aging time were varied, wit...

Ending aging in super glassy polymer membranes.

Aging in super glassy polymers such as poly(trimethylsilylpropyne) (PTMSP), poly(4-methyl-2-pentyne) (PMP), and polymers with intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) reduces gas permeabilities and limits their application as gas-separation membranes. While super glassy polymers are initially very porous, and ultra-permeable, they quickly pack into a denser phase becoming less porous and permeable. This...

Application of eudragit RS to thermo-sensitive drug delivery systems. I. Thermo-sensitive drug release from acetaminophen matrix tablets consisting of eudragit RS/PEG 400 blend polymers.

In order to develop the polymer materials having temperature-sensitive and high biological safety, Eudragit RS-PO and polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400) blend polymers (EPG) were prepared. The EPGs that have the glass transition temperature (Tg) at around the body temperature were prepared by the addition of 5--13% PEG 400 to Eudragit RS. As glassy polymers are not in thermodynamic equilibrium b...

PIM-1 mixed matrix membranes for gas separations using cost-effective hypercrosslinked nanoparticle fillers.

High-free-volume glassy polymers, such as polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) and poly(trimethylsilylpropyne), have attracted attention as membrane materials due to their high permeability. However, loss of free volume over time, or aging, limits their applicability. Introduction of a secondary filler phase can reduce this aging but either cost or instability rules out scale up for many ...

بررسی کاربرد نانوذرات تیتانیوم دی‌اکسید در بهبود مقاومت استحکام‌بخش پلی‌وینیل بوتیرال دربرابر قارچِ پوسیدگی سفید چوب

The synthetic polymers are widely used as adhesives, consolidants and protective coatings in the conservation of historic relics. Although, compared to the natural polymers and adhesives, these materials present a better resistance against the microorganisms, most synthetic polymers remain appropriate sources of Carbon and energy for the growth of microorganism; in addition, the relics consolid...
