In this paper, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were added into chitosan (CS) hydrogels in the form of chitosan modified CNTs (CS-CNTs) composites to prepare carbon nanotubes hydrogels (CNTs-GEL). The products, named CS-MWCNTs, were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Swelling properties and effect of pH on controlled release performanc...

nano zno/ montmorillonite composite were prepared by sol gel method under ultrasonic irradiation from directly mixing montmorillonite nano clay into zinc gel. the zn(ch3coo)2.2h2o and montmorillonite nano clay was used as precursor. the zinc acetate was dissolved in di water and, nh3 (aq) solution was dropped into the zinc solution until ph 9 consequently the zinc gel was produced. the montmori...

background: in this work investigation of the normoxic pagat polymer gel dosimeter such as sensitivity, the r2-dose response with post time and the percentage depth dose (pdd) of pagat polymer gel dosimeter have been undertaken. materials and methods: using mri, the formulation to give the maximum change in the transverse relaxation rate r2 was determined to be 4.5% n,n'-methylenbis- acryl...

background: since 1984 mri gel dosimetry has been introduced as a potential technique for 3d dosimetry. most of the studies have measured r1 (1/t1) or r2 (1/t2) properties of the gel depending on the gel type. we have studied image intensity change in the fricke gel by different mri protocols. materials and methods: gel dosimeters contain 0.4 mm ferrous sulphate, 1 mm nacl, 50 mm h2so4 and 1% b...

objectives: this study evaluated the effect of surface polishing on mercury release from dental amalgam after treatment with 16% carbamide peroxide gel. materials and methods: ninety-six samples from two different amalgam brands were prepared in truncated cone-shaped pvc polymer molds with an external surface area of 195 mm². half of the specimens were polished with green and red rubber, a brus...

Background: In this work investigation of the normoxic PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter such as sensitivity, the R2-dose response with post time and the percentage depth dose (PDD) of PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter have been undertaken. Materials and Methods: Using MRI, the formulation to give the maximum change in the transverse relaxation rate R2 was determined to be 4.5% N,N'-methylenbis- ...

Sol–gel chemistry is an efficient tool to control the morphology and reactivity of solids. Drying is the crucial step due to the capillary forces exerted during the classic ambient drying process, which induces the collapse of the wet gel porosity. The use of N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF), a newly found DCCA were found to be effective in the sol–gel synthesis of crack-free silica gel monolith fr...

Excessive water production through fractures become an important problem in oil exploration of fractured reservoirs. For this purpose, polymer gels were prepared by crosslinking of aqueous solutions of polymer and crosslinker for the purpose of water management in high water cut fractured reservoirs. A copolymer of sulfonated polyacrylamide was used as polymer and chromium triacetate (Cr(OA...
