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...

in this research, the mechanical properties of seven types of nanofilm with differing amounts of silver and silver-clay particles were studied. the elasticity of modulus, tensile strength, toughness, elongation at break, tear strength and color of nanofilms were compared with those of ordinary ldpe film. results showed that the inclusion of nano particles increased the modulus of elasticity, te...

using titanium dioxide nano-silver packaging, which is antibacterial and resistance to the diffusion of gases such as oxygen, is increasing in food industry. therefore, we compared the effect of titanium dioxide-based nano-silver packaging and conventional polyethylene packaging on the fungal flora of consuming bread in order to increase the shelf-life storage of consuming bread. one hundred fo...

nano-films consisting of an alternating sequence of positively and negatively charged polyelectrolyteshave been prepared by means of the electrostatic layer-by-layer sequential assembly technique on mildsteels. the mild steels were pretreated electrochemically to modify the mild steel surface. the modificationof the mild steel surface resulted in increasing the adhesion of the obtained nano-fil...

Antimicrobial active films based on poly (lactic acid) (PLA) were prepared with nano-silver (nano-Ag) and nano-zinc oxide (nano-ZnO) using a solvent volatilizing method. The films were characterized for mechanical, structural, thermal, physical and antimicrobial properties. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images characterized the fracture morphology of the films with different contents of na...

a suitable option for manufacture of packing materials is the use of clay and silver nano particles. these materials help create optimal relative impermeable quality, in addition to other features being improved. moisture-packed bread by use of these materials prevent water vapor loss and therefore reduce the level of bread becoming stale. in this study, seven types of nano-films with different...

Polylactide (PLA)/nano-TiO₂ and PLA/nano-TiO₂/nano-Ag blends films were prepared by a solvent volatilization method. Compared to pure PLA film, the nano-blend films have low water vapor permeability (WVP) and a poor transparency. With the increase of the NPs in the PLA, the tensile strength (TS) and elastic modulus (EM) decreased, while the elongation at break (ε) increased. SEM analysis indica...

The effects of poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-based film with inorganic antimicrobial nano-TiO₂ and nano-Ag on the physicochemical and microbial quality of Tremella aurantialba stored at 4 ± 1 °C for 16 days was investigated. Rosemary essential oil (REO, 9 wt %) was added into PLA film as plasticizer. Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and PLA film was used as the controls. The experiment measured physic...

in this paper effect of sio 2 nanoparticles was investigated on potato starch films. potato starch films were prepared by casting method with addition of nano-silicon dioxide and a mixture of sorbitol/glycerol (weight ratio of 3 to 1) as plasticizers. sio 2 nanoparticles incorporated to the potato starch films at different concentrations 0, 1, 2, 3, and 5% of total solid, and the films were dri...

Using electrospinning technique, well-aligned poly(azo-ether-imide) (PAEI) nano-fibers and PAEI/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nano-fibers were developed in this effort. Afterwards, polystyrene-b-poly (ethylene-ran-butylene)-b-polystyrene (SEBS) and polyimide-based nano-fiber films were casted. The as-prepared electrospun nanofibers acted as homogeneous reinforcement to enhance the tensile...
