Bioactive albumin functionalized polylactic acid membranes for improved biocompatibility
(2013-10)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyBiocompatibility is a major challenge for successful application of many biomaterials. In this study the ability to coat chemically and enzymatically activated poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA) membranes with heat denatured human ... -
Electrical and thermal behavior of c-phase poly(vinylidene ¿uoride)/NaY zeolite composites
(2012-05-26)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPoly(vinylidene fluoride), PVDF, based composites with increasing NaY zeolite content up to 32 wt.% have been processed by solvent casting and melt crystallization. Depending on the melting temperature of the polymer, the ... -
