Roll‐to‐Roll Processing of Biodegradable Multilayer Barrier Packaging Structures

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates that novel packaging materials built using biobased and biodegradable materials can be produced in pilot‐scale and converted into functional barrier packaging. The proposed structures are anticipated to make a strong impact in use‐cases where the risk of environmental littering is elevated, such as snacks and take away meals ...

DIFFUSION OF ETHYLENE-GLYCOL IN SOLID-STATE POLY(ETHYLENE-TEREPHTHALATE)

, 1993
A comprehensive model considering both diffusion and reactions simultaneously was established and the diffusion coefficient of ethylene glycol, D(e) was obtained by comparing with the desorption results in solid state poly(ethylene terephthalate).

Peptide Fingerprinting of Single Protein Molecules Using In‐Plane Nanopore Sensors Integrated to an Extended Immobilized Nanoscale Enzymatic Reactor (eINER)

Small Methods, EarlyView.
The protein Time‐of‐Flight (P‐ToF) chip can peptide fingerprint a single protein molecule by subjecting it to a solid phase endopeptidase cleavage reaction in‐line with a combination of resistive pulse sensing of the resulting single peptides and machine‐learning aided identification.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 8

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Re‐evaluation using the Williams–Landel–Ferry equation, of exhaustion/rate of dyeing/fixation data previously reported for and acid dye, natural dye and two reactive dyes on three different types of silk substrate revealed that thermally activated dye diffusivity is governed by the thermally regulated structural relaxation times of the ...
