Thermodynamic stability of ibuprofen loaded poloxamer micelles

open access: yesChemical Physics, 2020
Abstract Thermodynamic stability of poloxamer micelles excluding and encapsulating ibuprofen drug at different concentrations is studied by means of free energies. Free energies are computed by a partitioning of the total free energy in order to consider the different parts of the co-polymers together with free co-polymer chains in solvent. Moreover,

Supramolecular perspectives in colloid science [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Supramolecular chemistry puts emphasis on molecular assemblies held together by non-covalent bonds. As such, it is very close in spirit to colloid science which also focuses on objects which are small, but beyond the molecular scale, and for which other ...

Mesoporous Carbon Thin Films with Large Mesopores as Model Material for Electrochemical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesoporous carbon thin films possessing 70 nm mesopores are prepared on titanium substrates by soft templating of resol resins with a self‐synthesized poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(hexyl acrylate) block copolymer. A strategy to avoid corrosion of the metal substrate is presented, and the films are extensively characterized in terms of morphology ...

Phase Behavior of Amphiphilic Diblock Co-oligomers with Nonionic and Ionic Hydrophilic Groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The synthesis of a series of co-oligomer amphiphiles by RAFT and their self-assembly behavior in water is described. These novel amphiphiles, comprised of styrene, butyl acrylate, and alkyl hydrophobes together with ionic acrylic acid and nonionic ...

Interfacial adsorption characteristics of surfactant‐modified nanoparticles: Equilibrium and dynamic effects of salinity at the oil–water interface

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Surfactant‐modified nanoparticles adsorb at the oil–water interface, enabling interfacial stabilization and microemulsion formation. Abstract This study systematically investigated the interfacial behaviour of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles (NPs) functionalized with cationic (CTAB), anionic (SDS), and nonionic (Triton ...

Study of Uncatalyzed and Micellar‐Catalyzed Oxidative Degradation of Amoxicillin by Colloidal MnO2: Experimental Optimization and Mechanistic Aspects

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
The absorption spectra of amoxicillin degradation by colloidal MnO2 in the presence and absence of surfactants. Herein, the oxidative degradation of amoxicillin (AMX) by water‐soluble colloidal MnO2 is investigated spectrophotometrically at 298 K in both uncatalyzed and nonionic micellar‐catalyzed media (Triton X‐100 and Brij‐35).
