tissue engineering is defined as the designing and engineering of structures to rebuild and repair a body damaged tissue. scaffolding poly hydroxy butyrate valraty (phbv) has shown good biocompatibility and biodegradable properties. nanofibers have improved the performance of biomaterials, and could be considered effective. one of the important methods for designing nanofiber scaffold is the el...

The present study investigates the hydrophilic properties of acrylonitrile/acrylic acid P(AN/AA) copolymer films with various acrylic acid (AA) contents dendrigrafted with citric acid from zero to fourth generation numbers. It was found that the hydrophilicity of the dendrigrafted films was a complicated phenomenon. Various parameters such as intermolecular hydrogen bonding, roughness and activ...

The present paper focuses on the investigation of self-cleaning properties based on studding of water repellency and blood repellency for TiN- and CrN single-layer and TiN/CrN nanoscale multi-layer coatings deposited via Cathodic Arc Evaporation (CAE) method on medical grade 420C stainless steel substrate. X-ray diffraction (XRD) method and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) wa...

abstract:any effects of wood coating with different compounds as nano-zinc, nano-chitosan, chitosan, silicon oil and flaxseed oil on surface properties as; wood color change, surface roughness and wettability were studied in the current research work. for this purpose, sample boards of beech wood were cut into sizes of 2×10×20cm. the specimens were coated with the noticed coatings and tested fo...

in this study, a mixed matrix polyethersulfone/iron-nickel oxide nanoparticle nanofiltration membrane was prepared by the solution casting technique. polyvinylpyrrolidone was also used as a membrane pore former in membrane fabrication. the effect of iron-nickel oxide nanoparticles concentration in the casting solution on the membrane structure and performance was investigated. scanning optical ...
