Clay nanocomposites have been synthesized by UV-curing with organic and waterbased resins. The effect of the chemical structure of the organophilic layer of the clay on the dispersibility in the photocurable resins, the photocuring efficiency and the final properties of the UV-cured nanocomposites are discussed.

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs), as a novel class of green solvents, were successfully applied as eco-friendly and sustainable reaction media for fast surface modification of spherical porous silica, resulting in stationary phases for high-performance liquid chromatography. The new reaction media were advantageous over organic solvents in many aspects, such as the high dispersibility of silica sp...

We report an unusual homopolymer vesicle, which has a soft bilayer membrane composed of oligo(ethyleneoxy) side chains (OEs) with a gradually decreased packing density from the centre of the membrane to both margins, exhibiting thermo-responsive zeta potential and dispersibility and showing potential applications for anti-cancer drug delivery.

Growing-up milk (GM) powders of contrasting colloidal behavior in aqueous suspension were studied by laser diffraction under wet and dry conditions. The reconstitution the GM considered interdependencies between particle size presence encapsulated fat. low dispersibility presented fines associated with large particles. By contrast, highly dispersible powder included fat fine particles (20 – 80 ...

Abstract Scientific publications and newsfeeds recently focused on flushable wet wipes their role in sewage system blockages. It is stated that although products are marked as flushable, they do not disintegrate after being disposed of via the toilet. In this work it shown wetlaid hydroentangled lose initially good dispersive properties during storage condition. As a consequence, we suggesting ...

pH) most ofthis lipid again became extractable only with difficulty. 5. The parallelism between the two criteria of decomposition used, namely dispersibility in sodium chloride solution-ether and extractability of the lipid with ether, was not complete. The authors areindebtedto DrK. McQuillen for assistance with the mobility measurements. The work described in this paper has been carried out a...

Carboxylated SiO2-coated α-Fe nanoparticles have been successfully prepared via CaH2-mediated reduction of SiO2-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles followed by surface carboxylation. These α-Fe-based nanoparticles, which are characterized by ease of coating with additional functional groups, a large magnetization of 154 emu per g-Fe, enhanced corrosion resistivity, excellent aqueous dispersibility, and ...
