We demonstrate in situ recorded motion of nano-objects adsorbed on a photosensitive polymer film. The motion is induced by a mass transport of the underlying photoresponsive polymer material occurring during irradiation with interference pattern. The polymer film contains azobenzene molecules that undergo reversible photoisomerization reaction from trans- to cis-conformation. Through a multi-sc...

Polymer bonded magnets based on thermoplastics are economically produced by the injection molding process for applications in sensor and drive technology. Especially lack of orientation edge layer, as well chemical resistance creep behavior limit possible implementations thermoplastic polymer magnets. However, thermoset have opportunity to expand complying with demands industry or pump systems ...

fe3o4 nanostructures were synthesized via a facile hydrothermal reaction. the effect of various surfactants such as cationic and anionic on the morphology of the product was investigated. magnetic nanoparticles were added to poly styrene (ps) for preparation of magnetic nanocomposite. nanostructures were then characterized using x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and fo...

one of the most important advantages of particle simulation as compared to fluid simulation is the capacity for working with and tracing particles. in particle simulations, the test particle method is usually used to get some idea of the behavior of plasma or other substances. in this method, first, a small number of particles are injected into the frame of static electromagnetic fields. then, ...

Polymeric nano andmicroparticles are finding widespread applications in materials and biological science. In all preparation methods pursued to date, the chemical stability of the particles is determined by the polymer system chosen. Usually, after particle synthesis, postprocessing with the aim of changing their stability is not possible. Therefore, one only has two choices: the synthesis of c...

A novel process for obtaining controlled morphologies in polymer blends is modeled numerically. Particles of one type of polymer are allowed to dissolve in a matrix of a dissimilar polymer. Prior to complete dissolution the blend is quenched into the two-phase region, such that phase separation takes place. The combination of the incomplete dissolution and the wavelength selection process assoc...

Urease was covalently immobilized on the magnetic particles without and with polymer between urease particle. The insertion enhanced conversion from urea to bicarbonate. ureases were microparticles through covalent bonds. 150 μL of stock solution 3 μm diameter washed three times 20 mM MES rubbing at pH 6.0. results this study seem be useful in designing a reactor for recycling wastewater genera...

Poly-(alkylcyanoacrylate) ester particles have been used for the preparation of different formulations ranging from ophthalmic delivery systems to cancer chemotherapy carriers in clinic. The aim of this study was to prepare and characterize poly-(methyl ethyl cyanoacrylate) (PMECA) particles containing 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA). PMECA particles were prepared using the inverse emulsification...
