in this work, ternary polymer blends based on polypropylene (pp)/ polyethylene terephthalate (pet) /poly(styrene-b (ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene) (sebs) triblock copolymer and a reactive maleic anhydride grafted sebs (sebs-g-mah) at various compositions were prepared by co-rotating twin screw extruder. the effects of pet, sebs and sebs-g-mah compatibilizer on morphology of the blends were ex...

The morphology of bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic cells controls many of the performance characteristics of devices. However, measuring this morphology is challenging because of the small length-scales and low contrast between organic materials. Here we use nanoscale photocurrent mapping, ultrafast fluorescence and exciton diffusion to observe the detailed morphology of a high-performa...

The present work focuses on preparation and characterization of erythromycin loaded gelatin nanoparticles through nanoprecipitation method. The procedure consists of the addition of the aqueous gelatin solution to the non-solvent phase containing Lutherol F127. Three different measures of cross-linker and polymer concentration were also examined, and the optimum concentration was found. The mor...

The property profile exhibited by cellular metals identifies several applications, especially in technologies requiring multifunctionality. Their specific property attributes suggest implementation as: ultralight panels/shells, energy absorbing structures and heat dissipation media as well as for vibration control. Connections between the properties that govern these performance benefits and th...

in this work the effects of various methods of agitation on the properties of electroless ni-p-mos2 composite coatings were investigated. magnetic stirring as well as purging the solution with gas (air, oxygen, nitrogen) were used. plating rate, chemical composition, mos2 distribution, and hardness of the deposit were measured. topography of coating was studied with metallography and scanning e...

Arsenic is a highly toxic element for human beings, which is generally found in groundwater. Dissolved Arsenic in water can be seen as As+3 and As+5 states. The adsorption process is one of the available methods to remove Arsenic from aqueous solutions. Thus, this papers aims at removing Arsenic (III) from aqueous solutions through adsorption on iron oxide granules. The relation among four inde...
