Antioxidant Activities and Total Phenolic Content of Malaysian Herbs as Components of Active Packaging Film in Beef Patties
(2019-07-25)
Article
Open AccessActive packaging containing natural extracts is a promising innovation to prolong the shelf life of perishable food. The objective of this work was to develop a bioactive edible film from semi-refined carrageenan (SRC) and ... -
Preliminary investigation on auto-thermal extrusion of ground tire rubber
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2019-06-28)
Article
Open AccessGround tire rubber (GTR) was processed using an auto-thermal extrusion as prerequisite to green reclaiming of GTR. The reclaimed GTR underwent a series of tests: thermogravimetric analysis combined with Fourier-transform ... -
Kinetics of dyeing in continuous circulation with direct dyes: tencel case
(2019-07-16)
Article
Open AccessDue to the special characteristics of Tencel fibres, it is important to gather new data and information in order to improve our knowledge of their performance during dyeing. Kinetic equations are used to describe the ... -
Environmental impact assessment of sound absorbing nonwovens based on chicken feathers waste
(2019-06-28)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyChicken feathers (CFs) are currently a biogenic solid waste generated on a large scale and around the world. Its valorization could provide a great opportunity to manufacture environmentally friendly materials and increase ... -
Influence of Pt particle size and reaction phase on the photocatalytic performances of ultradispersed Pt/TiO2 catalysts for hydrogen evolution
(2019-07-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPt/TiO2 photocatalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation followed by oxidative and/or reductive thermal treatments. By varying the TiO2 form (commercial P25 and P90, and homemade shape-controlled), the Pt ... -
Mathematical models for drug delivery from textile
(2019-06-24)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyGallic acid was microencapsulated in poly-¿-caprolactone by the solvent evaporation method and was applied onto biofunctional textile substrates, cotton, and polyamide fabrics using a finishing process. A higher content ... -
Increasing sustainability on the metallurgical industry by integration of membrane nanofiltration processes: acid recovery
(2019-11-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe metallurgical industry generates large volumes of toxic effluents characterised, generally, by high acidity and a noticeable content of metals (Fe, Cu and Zn) and non-metals (As, Sb, Bi). The toxicity of these streams ... -
Microwave treatment in waste rubber recycling – Recent advances and limitations
(2019-06-01)
Article
Open AccessEnvironmentally-friendly microwave heating is increasingly used in polymer chemistry and technology. The selectivity and highly efficiency in the heat transfer present a huge advantage in systems based on recycling, improving ... -
Enhanced degradation of phenol by a fenton-like system (Fe/EDTA/h2 o2) at circumneutral pH
(2019-05-01)
Article
Open AccessThis work deals with the degradation of phenol based on the classical Fenton process, which is enhanced by the presence of chelating agents. Several iron-chelating agents such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), ... -
Poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate)/poly(ethylene glycole) hydrogels for chronic wounds management
(Elsevier, 2019-05-14)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPolyzwitterions (PZI) recently emerged as biomaterials with excellent bio- and haemo-compatibility, demonstrating lower protein adsorption on their surfaces even compared to the golden standard in the field – poly(ethylene ... -
The mechanism of adhesion and graft polymerization of a PNIPAAm thermoresponsive hydrogel to polypropylene meshes
(2019-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this study, a commercial and fully flexible monofilament mesh has been used for the deposition of a thermosensitive hydrogel, generated by graft copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and N,N'-methylene ... -
