the nylon and nylon/lycra yarns were coated with electrically conductive polymers such as polyaniline and polypyrrole, via chemical polymerization process. electrical conductivity of the coated yarns was measured at variousstrain levels using two-point probe technique and their strain sensitivities were studied. the results showed that, electrical conductivity of the coated yarns decreased with...

Preparation of silver nanoparticle by using leaf extracts of Terminalia catappa, its deposition on Nylon fabrics, and the modification with an addition of HDTMS have been conducted in this research. The samples prepared in this study were nylon cloth (N0), nylon cloth silver nanoparticles (N1), Nylon cloth HDTMS (N2), Nylon cloth − silver nanoparticles − HDTMS (N3), and Nylon cloth HDTMS silver...

Blends of nylon-6 with polybutadiene were prepared with comparable morphology and different molecular weights of the matrix. These specimens were tested using the notched Izod impact test and the notched tensile impact test. An increase in molecular weight resulted in a shift of the brittle-to-tough transition temperature of 40°C to lower temperatures. In the notched tensile impact tests, espec...

lateral flow assay, a simple and rapid test to detect various agents; have found many applications in different fields. one of the most important issues in the construction of a lateral flow assay is the increasing of its sensitivity and efficiency by processing of analytical layer. this study, aimed to investigate the performance of, nellulose, nitrocellulose, nylon and pvd as different analyt...

Introduction: Recent studies have introduced the groundwork for a new treatment option for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures: bioenhanced ACL repair(1). Briefly, this procedure is a primary suture repair of the ACL augmented by the implantation of a collagenous biomaterial soaked with platelet-rich plasma into the ACL defect along with a “suture stent” to initially protect the healing l...

this study focuses on achieving high stiffness/strength and good fr characteristic of nylon 66/mca/nc nanocomposites, prepared via melt compounding by twin screw extruder. a synergistic effect of flame retardant systems based on melamine cyanurate and zinc borate on the flammability and mechanical behaviours of crysnanoclay reinforced nylon 66 nanocomposites have been reported. mechanical test ...

A partially purified phophotriesterase was successfully immobilized onto nylon 6 and 66 membranes, nylon 11 powder, and nylon tubing. Up to 9000 U of enzyme activity was immobilized onto 2000 cm2 of a nylon 6 membrane where 1 U is the amount of enzyme necessary to catalyze the hydrolysis of 1.0 mumol of paraoxon/min at 25 degrees C. The nylon 66 membrane-bound phosphotriesterase was characteriz...

Techniques for cancer cell separation and retrieval from peripheral blood are not only used to prevent cancer metastasis, but also to understand its underlying mechanisms. We developed a surface-modified membrane with high specificity for cancer cells. Ethanolamine groups were introduced to the surface of the nylon net filter, and human colon cancer cell line Colo201 cells were suspended in per...

The combination of nanomaterials and conducting polymers attracted remarkable attention for development of new immobilization matrices for enzymes. Hereby, an efficient surface design was investigated by modifying the graphite rod electrode surfaces with one-step electrospun nylon 6,6 nanofibers or 4% (w/w) multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) incorporating nylon 6,6 nanofibers (nylon 6,6/4MWC...
