PolarClean, a green solvent prepared through the valorization of byproduct Nylon-66 manufacturing, shows an excellent capacity to dissolve all Fmoc-amino acids and key coupling reagents additives. It can also swell polystyrene ChemMatrix, two resins most widely used in solid-phase peptide synthesis. The synthesis model peptides has been carried out, rendering target as major component. performa...

The surface characteristics of various carbon and graphite fibers and the Interfaclal region between fibers and resin In composites were Investlgaced by using electron microscopy, electron diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The latter technique permits differentiation between graphite fibers of different origin. Graphite fiber composites were prepared by in situ polymerization on nylon 6. This...

Acaricidal nylon 66 fabrics (AN66Fs) grafted with clove oil-loaded microcapsules (COMCs) were developed against Dermatophagoides farina (D. gallinae). The average diameter was about 2.9 µm with a range of 100 nm-8.5 µm. COMCs carried clove oil loading of about 65 vol %. COMCs were chemically grafted to electrospun nylon nanofibers by the chemical reactions between -OH groups of COMCs and -COOH ...

In this study, the influence of different weight percentages of glass fiber (GF) reinforcement on the mechanical properties of nylon (PA6) composite is investigated. Test specimens of pure nylon, 95% nylon + 5% GF, 90% nylon + 10% GF, 85% nylon + 15% GF and 80% nylon + 20% GF are prepared using an injection molding machine. In the experiments, tensile tests and impact tests are carried out. The...

ZnO was successfully synthesized by a conventional synthetic route using zinc nitrate as a source for ZnO formation. X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis revealed a crystal size of 66 nm of ZnO and a thermal stability of 500 °C. A small amount of ZnO particles was employed as the source for ZnO-rod growth on nylon 6 surfaces. Scanning electron microscope images were taken to evaluat...
