Enzymatic surface hydrolysis of PETenhances bonding in PVC coating

چکیده
The effect of polyesterase preparations from Thermomyces lanuginosus and Beauveria brongniartii on the hydrophilicity of PET materials was assessed. As a result of polyesterase treatment the hydrophilicity of PET fabrics was increased by up to 8 cm in terms of rising height with increases in surface tension from 6.2 mNm (heat-inactivated control samples) to above 8 mNm. Both enzymes were able to increase the amount of hydroxyl groups on PET from 90 to a maximum of 182 mmol kg , while only the B. brongniartii polyesterase released significant amounts of terephthalic acid from PET. Enzymatic surface hydrolysis of PET increased the bonding strength in PVC coating to 13.40 daN 5cm 1 using 0.5% adhesive compared to 11.5 daN 5cm 1 obtained without enzyme pretreatment and 6% of adhesive.

EFFECT OF TiO2 ADDITION ON BONDING STRENGTH OF CaO-P2O5 Na2O-TiO2 BIOACTIVE GLASS CERAMIC COATING
The effect of titanium dioxide addition on bonding strength of CaO-P2O5 -Na 2O-TiO2glass-ceramic system was investigated as a coating on titanium substrate. Thus, different amounts of TiO2 (2, 3.5 and 5mol %) were added to the base glass batch composition. The prepared glaze slips were applied on the substrate by dip coating method, dried and then heat treated at various temperatures. After tha...

Glycyrrhiza glabra residue (GGR) was efficiently subjected to concentrated phosphoric acid (PA) pretreatment with/without surfactant assistance, and promising results were obtained following separate enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) of the biomass. Pretreatment was carried out using 85 % PA either at 50 or 85 °C with 12.5 % solid loading for 30 min. In parallel experiments, ...

In this study, the hydrolysis of pretreated sorghum stem and rice husk was investigated at various initial enzyme concentrations and substrate loadings. The slowdown in enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials with conversion has often been attributed to decreasing the activity of enzyme. A kinetic model was developed and expressed mathematically based on enzyme deactivation for enzyma...

متن کاملPre-treatment with EDTA-gallium prevents the formation of biofilms on surfaces
Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Streptococcus pyogenes are leading causes of medical device-associated infections. The capacity to establish and maintain these infections is thought to be associated with the ability to form surface-attached biofilms. In the present study, gallium nitrate was used to coat PVC plates and biofilm formation on the plates by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Streptococcus pyoge...
