A lack of dimensional stability worsted fabrics when laundering leads to a rapid increase in wool textile waste. Dry cleaning is thus highly recommended; however, it requires solvent(s), which are not eco-friendly. The aim this study was produce machine-washable, 100% woven as an outer fabric for men’s suit jacket that also water-repellent order reduce the number washes required during use. Che...

Dispersion of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is a challenge for their application in the resulting matrixes. The present study conducted a comparison investigation of the effect of four surfactants: Alkylphenol polyoxyethylene ether (APEO), Silane modified polycarboxylate (Silane-PCE), I-Cationic polycarboxylate (I-C-PCE), and II-Cationic polycarboxylate (II-C-PCE) on the dispersion of hydroxyl functi...

Traditional processing of kaolin is achieved by dispersion of the mined ore and classification by means of multistage hydrocyclones. The inefficiencies inherent to cyclones produce a middling product that is commonly disposed back to the quarry. In this research recovery of kaolinite from tailings of the Zonoupz kaolin washing plant, which is located in Iran, was investigated by cationic flotat...

In the present study we have developed lipid nanoparticle (LN) dispersions based on a multiple emulsion technique for encapsulation of hydrophilic drugs or/and proteins by a full factorial design. In order to increase ocular retention time and mucoadhesion by electrostatic attraction, a cationic lipid, namely cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), was added in the lipid matrix of the optimal LN...

This work reports tests performed to evaluate the stability of aqueous dispersions of inorganic oxide pigments with different specific surface areas, with the use of anionic and non-ionic surfactants and concentrators. Color mixtures of oxide compounds of blue, green, olive and brown with the unit cell spinel structure were used as pigments. The sodium salt of sulfosuccinic acid monoester, oxye...

Antibacterial activity without cell cytotoxicity is conferred to common plastic materials by dispersion of amphiphilic cationic methacrylate-based block copolymers (0.5–2 wt%), while maintaining the mechanical properties materials.

composite electrodeposition is a low-cost and low-temperature method, which is used to make metal matrix composite coatings. in this study the surfactant of anionic(sds) and cationic (ctab) is used as additive in composite coating of ni/tin. the results showed that the anionic surfactant caused more particles in the composite coatings. increasing sds concentration to the optimal value leads to ...
