the use of panoramic radiography, due to its numerous advantages, is increasing. radiographic films used in this technique are of double emulsion (de) type which are used with intensifying screens. single emulsion (se) films can also be used. the purpose of this study was to determine the exposure parameters to achieve an appropriate optical density in these two types of films, and to estimate ...

background: development of biodegradable and biocompatible films based on protein polymer with strong antioxidant and antibacterial activities has gradually obtained extensive concern in the world. in this study, the improvement of gelatin film properties incorporated with ferula assa-foetida essential oil (fao) as a potential antioxidant/antibacterial wound dressing film was investigated. mate...

Zn0.97TM0.03O (TM = Co, Fe) thin films were deposited onto glass substrates by the sol–gel method and the effects of transition metals substitution on structural and optical properties of ZnO films were investigated. The X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that the films have wurtzite structure. Optical transmittance of the films was recorded in the range of 200 -800 nm wave length and the band...

zein is one of the best biopolymer for edible film making and sugars are natural plasticizers for biopolymers. in this research, sugars (fructose, galactose and glucose) at three levels (0.5, 0.7, 1 g/g of zein) were used as plasticizers for zein protein films and their water vapor permeability (wvp), oxygen permeability (op) and atomic force microscopy (afm) topography were studied. the pure z...

nano films consisting of an alternating sequence of positively and negatively charged polyelectrolytes have been prepared by means of the electrostatic layer-by-layer (lbl) sequential assembly technique on treated and untreated mild steel wires. inhibitor was encapsulated between cationic and anionic polyelectrolyte nano films. this paper mainly focuses on the effect of these nano-films of poly...

novel edible emulsified films were made using pistachio globulin protein (pgp) and palmitic fatty acid at concentrations of 2, 4, and 6 % w/w protein by tween-80 and homogenization technique. addition of palmitic acid to the pgp filmogenic solution resulted in great reduction of wvp in the emulsified films (37-40 %). concentration of palmitic acid did not create significant difference (p>0.05) ...

copper thin films with nano-scale structure have numerous applications in modern technology.  in this work, cu thin films with different thicknesses from 50–220 nm have been deposited on glass substrate by dc magnetron sputtering technique at room temperature in pure ar gas. the sputtering time was considered in 4, 8, 12 and 16 min, respectively. the thickness effect on the structural, morpholo...
