The CCN-relevant properties and droplet growth kinetics are determined for marine organic matter isolated from seawater collected near the Georgia coast. The organic matter is substantially less CCN active than (NH4)2SO4, but droplet growth kinetics are si ...
The temperature-dependent thermo-physical and mechanical properties of a pultruded E-glass fiber-reinforced polyester (GFRP) composite are investigated in this paper. Fitting of theoretical models of the material properties to results of TGA, DSC, hot disk ...
The present study explores the potential use of asymmetrical flow field flow fractionation (aFlFFF) with a multidetection system for the study of metal–alginate interactions. aFlFFF, coupled on-line to a differential refractive index and seven angle laser ...
Adsorption isotherms of carboxylate type superplasticizers with different architectures have been measured on MgO considered as a non-reactive model powder. This system allowed us to study the influence of pH, electrolyte type, concentration and ionic stre ...
A modified synthetic boundary expt. of anal. ultracentrifugation has been employed to examine, online, polyelectrolyte complex formation at flat interfaces yielding highly swollen membranes/networks. Systematic expts. with sodium alginate as a polyanion an ...
With higher nutrient and oxygen supply and close contact to blood, the portal vein is a possible alternative to the peritoneal cavity for transplantation of encapsulated cells. Data regarding intraportal biocompatibility of microcapsules are lacking. Micro ...
The coupling of the flow field flow fractionation to differential refractive index (DRI) and multi-angle laser light scattering detectors is a powerful tool for characterizing charged polysaccharides such as alginate. However, the correct interpretation of ...
The effects of the size (pseudo-generation number) and nature of end groups on physical and rheological properties were investigated for a series of hyperbranched polyesters based on an ethoxylated pentaerythritol core and 2,2-bis-(hydroxymethyl) propionic ...
Background: Mitosis depends upon the cooperative action of multiple microtubule (MT)-based motors. Among these, a kinesin-5, KLP61 F, and the kinesin-14, Ncd, are proposed to generate antagonistic-sliding forces that control the spacing of the spindle pole ...
This thesis presents the different steps in the development of a multiple diagnostic experimental setup and the results concerning the kinetics of condensation and evaporation of water over pure ice, as well as ice films doped with a known amount of atmosp ...
