The relentless increase in the demand for useable power from energy-hungry economies
continues to drive energy-material related research. Fuel cells, as a future potential power …

Biopolymers exist within living cells as far-from-equilibrium metastable polymers. Living
systems must constantly invest energy for biopolymer synthesis. In the earliest stages of life …

The formation of calcium sulphate (CaSO 4) scale and microbiological growth accumulation
poses major problems in cooling water treatment plants, thereby affecting the performance …

This paper presents the effect of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) coated Nafion membranes on their
water uptake, swelling and proton conductivity for various PVA coating thicknesses. These …

In this investigation, silver nanocomposite hydrogels were developed by using acrylamide
and biodegradable gelatin. Silver nanoparticles were generated throughout the hydrogel …

The formation of calcium sulphate and calcium carbonate scale poses major problems in
heat exchangers and water cooling systems, thereby affecting the performance of these …

Polyaspartic acid (PSI) is suitable for the inhibition of inorganic scale deposition. To
enhance its scale inhibition efficiency, PSI was modified by reacting aspartic acid with malic …

We report microbial resistance and catalytic activity of high viscosity cationic poly (proline-
epichlorohydrin) composite (PRO-EPI) in the aqueous system. The PRO-EPI was prepared …

In this scientific work, a novel class of antimicrobial nanocomposite hydrogels were
designed and synthesized by chemical and environmentally bioprocess using Kolliphor …

In the present study vegetable oil-based, highly branched polyester modified hyperbranched
epoxy nanocomposites were prepared with organically modified montmorillonite clay at …
