Effect of glycerol plasticizer loading on the physical, mechanical, thermal, and barrier properties of arrowroot (Maranta arundinacea) starch biopolymers

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
This research was set out to explore the development of arrowroot starch (AS) films using glycerol (G) as plasticizer at the ratio of 15, 30, and 45% (w/w, starch basis) using solution casting technique.

Plastic Surgery’s Plastics

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1996
Alloplastic materials have become an essential part of reconstructing the craniofacial skeleton. This article reviews several of the more commonly used implant materials and summarizes their mechanical properties and use in reconstructive surgery.

Bio‐Inspired, Self‐Toughening Polymers Enabled by Plasticizer‐Releasing Microcapsules

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, 2019
A new concept for the design of self‐toughening thermoplastic polymers is presented. The approach involves the incorporation of plasticizer‐filled microcapsules (MCs) in an intrinsically rigid and brittle matrix polymer.

Effect of Plasticizer Type and Concentration on Tensile, Thermal and Barrier Properties of Biodegradable Films Based on Sugar Palm (Arenga pinnata) Starch

open access: yesPolymers, 2015
The use of starch based films as a potential alternative choice to petroleum derived plastics is imperative for environmental waste management. This study presents a new biopolymer (sugar palm starch) for the preparation of biodegradable packaging films ...

Plasticity

2013
A variety of noninvasive brain stimulation techniques have been used to study neuronal plasticity. Mostly, noninvasive techniques have been employed, and the bulk of studies have focused on the motor system, because its physiology is more readily accessible and physiological properties can be studied with greater detail than in other systems.

Synapses Plastic plasticity

Nature, 1997
The connections between neurons (synapses) can adapt to changing circumstances of nervous transmissions, a phenomenon known as activity-dependent plasticity. Moreover, such plasticity is itself regulated, but little is known about the mechanisms or behavioural consequences of this metaplasticity.
