Pure PP and PP/MoO3 filaments produced by melt spinning. ABSTRACT Polypropylene (PP) composite fibers containing 0.10, 0.20, and 0.50 wt% molybdenum oxide (MoO3) nanoparticles were produced via melt spinning. In the present study, the effect of this addition on the mechanical, thermal, and chromic properties of the fibers was investigated.

Influence of acrylonitrile (ACN) content on the processing behavior and morphological development of PA/NBR thermoplastic vulcanizates. Torque‐time profiles, SEM, and SEM/AFM images show that an intermediate ACN level (38%) promotes improved phase dispersion and morphological uniformity, especially with increased processing time, resulting in the most ...

Systematic Study of PDMS Optical Waveguides for Pressure Sensing Using Design of Experiments
A response surface methodology was used to systematically evaluate the impact of mix ratio and cure conditions on PDMS optical waveguide properties for pressure sensing. Mix ratio significantly influenced compression sensitivity, compressive modulus, and propagation loss, while cure temperature primarily affected refractive index.

Surfactant‐Enhanced Electrospun Nanofiber Filters for Efficient Viral and Bacterial Inactivation
In this work, electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibrous filters functionalized with surfactants (CTAB, CPC, and SDS) were developed for air filtration applications. The PAN nanofiber mats enable efficient particulate matter capture while simultaneously providing antimicrobial and antiviral activity against bacteria (E. coli and S.

Unlocking fruit dimensions: Quantification of functional traits driving plant–frugivore interactions
Abstract Fleshy fruits attract animals to ingest fruit, swallow the seeds, and release them in the landscape, thus facilitating seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Attraction of animal dispersers is achieved via attractants such as color or scent, and rewards like sugars, lipids, and micronutrients.
