The sol-gel process is an innovative advanced method, initially developed to synthesize glass and ceramics at low temperature. Sol-gel can be used synthesis materials with a variety of shapes, such as porous membranes, thin fibers, nano-size powders films. In this study, epoxy methacrylate based silane coupling agents are together zirconium oxide form hybrid coating system on surface. the exper...

We report fabrication of large area Ag nanowire (NW) film coated using a continuous roll-to-roll (RTR) slot die coater as a viable alternative to conventional ITO electrodes for cost-effective and large-area flexible touch screen panels (TSPs). By controlling the flow rate of shear-thinning Ag NW ink in the slot die, we fabricated Ag NW percolating network films with different sheet resistances...

Breast cancer cells undergo transformation when they spread into surrounding tissues. Studies have shown that cancer cells undergo surface alterations and interact with the surrounding microenvironment during the invasion process. The aim of the present study was to analyse these cancer cell surface alterations and interactions of cancer cells and stroma. Twenty 1-methyl-1-nitrosourea-induced b...

graph 5100, Micromeritics) and the specific surface area was measured by nitrogen adsorption, the BET-method (ASAP 2000, Micromeritics). The particle size distribution (PSD), a narrow or broad distribution, was determined by using the equation: PSD slope=[75% (ESD)-25% (ESD)]/2.APS, where ESD means equivalent spherical diameter and APS means average particle size. Oil absorption, packing index,...

Fluorescent whitening agents (FWAs) are the most widely used functional chemicals for the manufacture of printing and writing grades of paper. FWAs are used as internal or external additives for the surface treatment on the size press and coater. In spite of the extensive use of FWAs, no method has been established to analyze the FWA content in process water and paper products. Samples are typi...

A cylindrical direct current magnetron sputtering coater with two targets for deposition of multilayer thin films and cermet solar selective surfaces has been constructed. The substrate holder was able to rotate around the target for obtaining the uniform layer and separated multilayer phases. The Al/ Cu multilayer film was deposited on the glass substrate at the following conditions: Working g...

Unlike the state-of-the-art plasma nitriding technologies where a low ionisation glow discharge is used, of CoCrMo alloy was carried out in an industrial size vacuum coater, utilising novel high ionisation, power impulse magnetron sputtering mixed with unbalanced discharge. Three different voltages were used for process. To generate more ions, two pairs Cr and Nb targets also operated at N2:H2 ...

Abstract Barrier properties are very important in food packaging; the better properties, longer product can stay fresh packaging, which prolongs shelf life of product. One way improving barrier is to modifying existing coatings with addition metal oxides, nanoparticles, or natural extracts. The aim study was compare between paper coated starch and black cherry extract mix. Prunus serotina extra...
