Mechanical Properties and Structures of Clay-Polyelectrolyte Blend Hydrogels

open access: yesGels, 2018
Our recent studies have shown that the hydrogels prepared by blending clay, a dispersant of clay, and a polyelectrolyte (sodium polyacrylate (PAAS)) possess excellent mechanical properties.

Effects of APP/SiO2 polyelectrolyte composites on wood-plastic composite [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
This paper was aimed to evaluate process of APP/SiO2, which used Nano-crystalline cellulose (NCC) modified ammonium polyphosphate (APP) as anionic polyelectrolyte (a-APP), and cationic polyethyleneimine (PEI) modified Nano–SiO2 as cationic ...

Conformation of a Polyelectrolyte Complexed to a Like-Charged Colloid

open access: yes, 2001
We report results from a molecular dynamics (MD) simulation on the conformations of a long flexible polyelectrolyte complexed to a charged sphere, \textit{both negatively charged}, in the presence of neutralizing counterions in the strong Coulomb ...

Shifts in Redox Formal Potentials Accompanying the Incorporation of Cationic Complexes in Perfluoro Polycarboxylate and Polysulfonate Coatings on Graphite Electrodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The formal potentials of several redox couples incorporated in coatings of a perfluoropolycarboxylate on graphite electrodes were measured and compared with the formal potentials of the same couples in homogeneous solution.

Young's modulus of polyelectrolyte multilayers from microcapsule swelling

open access: yes, 2003
We measure Young's modulus of a free polyelectrolyte multilayer film by studying osmotically induced swelling of polyelectrolyte multilayer microcapsules filled with the polyelectrolyte solution.

Swelling and Mechanical Characterization of Polyelectrolyte Hydrogels as Potential Synthetic Cartilage Substitute Materials

open access: yesGels, 2022
Hydrogels have become an increasingly interesting topic in numerous fields of application. In addition to their use as immobilization matrixes in (bio)catalysis, they are widely used in the medical sector, e.g., in drug delivery systems, contact lenses ...

Swelling Properties of Hydrogels Containing Phenylboronic Acids

open access: yesChemosensors, 2013
Phenylboronic acids are a class of compounds that bind glucose and other sugars. When polymerized into hydrogels, they provide a convenient nonenzymatic means for sensing glucose concentration, provided competing sugars are present at negligible ...

In situ Gelling Amphotericin B Nanofibers: A New Option for the Treatment of Keratomycosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
The purpose of our research was the development of Amphotericin B-loaded in situ gelling nanofibers for the treatment of keratomycosis. Different formulation strategies were applied to increase the drug load of the sparingly water-soluble Amphotericin B ...

Electrostatic analysis of the charged surface in a solution via the finite element method: The Poisson-Boltzmann theory [PDF]

open access: yesAUT Journal of Electrical Engineering, 2016
Electrostatic potential as well as the local volume charge density are computed for a macromolecule by solving the Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PBE) using the finite element method (FEM). As a verification, our numerical results for a one dimensional PBE,

Polyelectrolyte adsorption

open access: yesJournal de Physique, 1988
The adsorption of uncharged polymers is, due to numerous efforts over past decades, fairly well understood. Some insight exists into the structure of the adsorbed layer, and the effect of the important parameters molecular weight, solvency and polymer/surface interaction has been investigated. Theory and experiment are beginning to converge.
