Ignition mechanisms in polymers and polymer nanocomposites [PDF]
Polymers for Advanced Technologies, 2011 This paper addresses the behavior of thermoplastic polymers and polymer nanocomposites prior to ignition, under irradiation in a cone calorimeter. Insights into the physical evolution of material controlling ignition are obtained from the measurement of the condensed phase surface temperature and by the observation of specimen residues obtained from ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Increased Ag nanoparticles stability through cellulose nanofibrils coatings [PDF]
Memoirs of the Scientific Sections of the Romanian Academy, 2020 The study presents the possibility of covering Ag nanoparticles in solutuon with cellulose with cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs)and oxidized cellulose nanofibrils, termed TEMPO (TCNFs)in order to increase their dispersility and stability over time.

Optimization of Nanocomposite Films Based on Polyimide–MWCNTs towards Energy Storage Applications
Energies, 2023 In order to obtain polyimide-based composite materials for energy storage applications, four synthetic methods towards a polyimide matrix with 2 wt.% pristine or acid-functionalized MWCNTs have been developed.

Coil--globule transition of a polymer involved in excluded-volume interactions with macromolecules [PDF]
, 2015 Polymers adopt extended coil and compact globule states according to the balance between entropy and interaction energies. The transition of a polymer between an extended coil state and compact globule state can be induced by changing thermodynamic force such as temperature to alter the energy/entropy balance.

Effect of excluded volume interactions on the interfacial properties of colloid-polymer mixtures [PDF]
J. Chem. Phys. 128, 024904 (2008), 2007 We report a numerical study of equilibrium phase-diagrams and interfacial properties of bulk and confined colloid-polymer mixtures using grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations. Colloidal particles are treated as hard spheres, while the polymer chains are described as soft repulsive spheres.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We quantified and cultured circulating tumor cells (CTCs) of 62 patients with various cancer types and generated CTC‐derived tumoroid models from two salivary gland cancer patients. Cellular liquid biopsy‐derived information enabled molecular genetic assessment of systemic disease heterogeneity and functional testing for therapy selection in both ...
