the main objective of this study was to prepare colon-specific pellets of budesonide, using pectin as film coating. pellet cores of budesonide were prepared by extrusion / spheronization technique. pectin, in different ratios was combined with eudragit rs30d, eudragit ne30d or surelease to produce film coating. the dissolution profiles of pectin coated pellets were investigated in ph of 1.2 (2 ...

Polym. Adv g liquid processed polymer deposition method for the film preparation of functional polymers in photo-electronic devices. In this report, the results on the IJP of a fluorenebased electroluminescent polymer, poly(9,9-dihexylfluorene-alt-2,5-dioctyloxybenzene) (PF6OC8), from a piezoelectric droplet generator are presented. The polymer film thickness has been found to show an approxima...

The ability of terahertz pulsed imaging (TPI) to be employed as an analytical tool for monitoring a film coating unit operation and to assess the success of a subsequent process scale-up was explored in this study. As part of a process scale-up development, a total of 190 sustained-release tablets were sampled at 10% increments of the amount of polymer applied, from a lab-scale and a pilot-scal...

rapid thermal processing (rtp) has become a key technology for semiconductor device manufacturing in a variety of applications, such as thermal oxidation, annealing, and thin-film growth. hence, understanding the radiative properties of silicon and other relevant materials is essential for the analysis of the thermal transport processes. we have analyzed and calculated the spectral, directional...

In this work we investigate theoretically the Landau-Levich problem of dip coating in the presence of a strong interaction potential normal to the substrate. This study is motivated by dip coating at very low capillary numbers when the deposited film thickness is less than 1 m and such interaction forces become important. The objective of this work is to demonstrate that in the presence of an e...

Residual stress in optical thin film coatings can cause adhesion failures, cracking, buckling, and bending of the substrates. The stress in the coating depends on the materials used, deposition process, and the design. The bulk properties of the coating materials and the substrate such as thermal coefficient of expansion, Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s Ratio, etc., are basic parameters to be consid...

The low-speed spin-coating method was developed to prepare uniform and interconnected silver nanowires (AgNWs) film with the transmittance of 95% and sheet resistance of 20Ω/sq on glass, which was comparable to ITO. The fitting value of σ dc/σ op of 299.3 was attributed to the spin-coating process. Advantages of this solution-processed AgNW film on AlGaInP light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as transp...

The moisture sorption behaviour of three coating thicknesses of shellac and polyurethane films on Dalbergia sissoo substrate is studied in this paper. The thin films of either coat failed to reduce the water vapour transmission significantly. However, the thick coats were able to reduce this rate illustrating the importance film thickness of coating used on surfaces of wood products. The increm...

We applied an automated semiconductor synthesis and screen system to discover overcoating film materials and optimize coating conditions on the BiVO4/WO3 composite photoelectrode to enhance stability and photocurrent. Thirteen metallic elements for overcoating oxides were examined with various coating amounts. The stability of the BiVO4/WO3 photoelectrode in a highly concentrated carbonate elec...

film coating solutions containing different grades of hpmc (e5, e15 and e50) with and without polyethylene glycol (with various molecular weights) were examined by an oscillatory method, using haake cv 100 rheometer. fundamental rheological parameters (?, g? and g² ) were measured over the frequency range from 0.04 to 2 hz. the variation with frequency of the loss tangent (a ratio of viscous to...
