Mucus-penetrating nanoparticles made with "mucoadhesive" poly(vinyl alcohol).

Crosslinked Electrospun Poly (Vinyl Alcohol) Nanofibers Coated by Antibacterial Copper Nanoparticles

Room Temperature Preparation of Aluminum Hydroxide Nanoparticles and Flame Retardant Poly Vinyl Alcohol Nanocomposite

Al(OH)3 nanoparticles were synthesized by a simple precipitation reaction. The effect of various amines like ethylene diamine, propylene diamine, triethylenetetramine and tetraethylenepentamine as precipitating agents on the morphology of Al(OH)3 nanostructures was investigated. The influence of Al(OH)3 nanoparticles on the flame retardancy of the poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix was studied usi...

Mucoadhesive Hydrogel Films of Econazole Nitrate: Formulation and Optimization Using Factorial Design

The mucoadhesive hydrogel film was prepared and optimized for the purpose of local drug delivery to oral cavity for the treatment of oral Candidiasis. The mucoadhesive hydrogel film was prepared with the poly(vinyl alcohol) by freeze/thaw crosslinking technique. 3(2) full factorial design was employed to optimize the formulation. Number of freeze/thaw cycles (4, 6, and 8 cycles) and the concent...

A Fast Method for Synthesis Magnesium Hydroxide Nanoparticles, Thermal Stable and Flame Retardant Poly vinyl alcohol Nanocomposite

Magnesium hydroxide nanostructures as an effective flame retardant were synthesized by a facile and rapid microwave reaction. The effect of different surfactants such as cationic, anionic and polymeric on the morphology of magnesium hydroxide nanostructures was investigated. Nanostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform in...

Magnetic investigation of microwave synthesized and thermal stable poly vinyl alcohol-cobalt ferrite nanocomposites

We synthesized CoFe2O4 nanoparticles using heating in various times by simple microwave method at power about 600W. Water, ethylene glycol and their combination were used as solvent. X-ray diffraction pattern(XRD) analysis was performed for evaluation of structural characterization of samples. We also used scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to evaluate the effects of various parameters of heati...
