Destruction energy index (DEI) of vitamin E blended UHMWPE for artificial joints

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2019
Destruction resistance such as start-up wear resistance characteristics of vitamin E (dl-α-tocopherol) blended ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) were evaluated using the destruction energy index (DEI).

Particles adsorbed at various non-aqueous liquid-liquid interfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Particles adsorbed at liquid interfaces are commonly used to stabilise water-oil Pickering emulsions and water-air foams. The fundamental understanding of the physics of particles adsorbed at water-air and water-oil interfaces is improving significantly ...

Incorporation of liquid fillers into silicone foams to enhance the electro-mechanical properties

open access: yesInternational Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2020
Silicone foams with and without liquid fillers (silicone oils of various types and glycerol, respectively) are synthesized and analyzed to be used as dielectric layers in capacitive sensors. A simple fabrication technique involving only four components i.

The Influence of Oily Vehicle Composition and Vehicle-Membrane Interactions on the Diffusion of Model Permeants across Barrier Membranes

open access: yesMembranes, 2021
In many instances, one or more components of a pharmaceutical or cosmetic formulation is an oil. The aims of this study were two-fold. First, to examine the potential of preferential uptake of one oily vehicle component over another into a model barrier ...

Dip-coating of suspensions

open access: yes, 2019
Withdrawing a plate from a suspension leads to the entrainment of a coating layer of fluid and particles on the solid surface. In this article, we study the Landau-Levich problem in the case of a suspension of non-Brownian particles at moderate volume ...

Intraventricular Silicone Oil

open access: yesMedicine, 2016
Intracranial silicone oil is a rare complication of intraocular endotamponade with silicone oil. We describe a case of intraventricular silicone oil fortuitously observed 38 months after an intraocular tamponade for a complicated retinal detachment in an 82 year-old woman admitted in the Department of Neurology for a stroke. We confirm the migration of

The stability of insulin solutions in syringes is improved by ensuring lower molecular weight silicone lubricants are absent

open access: yesHeliyon, 2017
Protein drugs such as insulin are almost universally delivered via glass syringes lubricated with silicone oil. It is not uncommon for prefilled syringes (PFS) to become cloudy, which may affect bioavailability or total drug dose. To examine the role, if
