Preparation of Nanocomposites from Styrene and Modified Graphite Oxides [PDF]
, 2004 Graphite oxide was prepared and modified with several ammonium salts and these modified graphite oxides were used to prepare nanocomposites with polystyrene by in situ polymerization of styrene monomer and by melt blending with polystyrene ...

Isolation and identification of plastic degrading bacteria from dumpsites Lagos [PDF]
Advances in Environmental Technology, 2022 Plastic pollution is a threat to the environment because of its slow degradation rate and high usage. The continuous accumulation of these synthetic plastic wastes poses an ever-increasing threat to animals, humans, and the environment.

A Self-Assembled Microlensing Rotational Probe [PDF]
, 1998 A technique to measure microscopic rotational motion is presented. When a small fluorescent polystyrene microsphere is attached to a larger polystyrene microsphere, the larger sphere acts as a lens for the smaller microsphere and provides an optical ...
