Green house gas emissions, the depleting of non-renewable resources, and poor waste management have a detrimental environmental and socioeconomic impact. Consequantly, the development of alternative processes that alleviate these problems is imperative. Ap ...
In this thesis, we proposed to study polymer-based thick-film resistors (TFRs) made of graphite particles dispersed in an epoxy matrix. Three main axes were investigated: formulation of the composites, characterization with the determination of electrical, ...
Polymer-coated liposomes, particularly poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-substituted liposomes, have emerged as long-circulating carrier systems for drug delivery and diagnostic purposes. A rapid synthesis of three different types of multifunctional lipids with ...
The cost-effective production of high-performance and durable steel reinforced thermoplastic composites requires improvement of the adhesion encountered at the interface between metallic substrates (galvanized steel) and a thermoplastic elastomer (TPU). Co ...
Formulating effective coatings for use in nano- and biotechnology poses considerable technical challenges(1). If they are to provide abrasion resistance, coatings must be hard and adhere well to the underlying substrate(2). High hardness, however, comes at ...
While plastic pollution in marine environments is getting better known and is the subject of a continuously growing number of publications, freshwaters still receive too little attention. Some studies worldwide focused on the nature and concentrations of m ...

Copolymers of fluoroacrylates have interesting properties like excellent resistance to chemicals, oils and fuels, high thermal stability and high hydrophobicity. This investigation reports the copolymerization of 2,2,3,3,4,4,4-heptafluorobutyl acrylate (HF ...
Semiconductor nanowires are an emerging class of materials with great potential for applications in future electronic devices. The small footprint and the large charge-carrier mobilities of nanowires make them potentially useful for applications with high- ...
By decreasing the mixing and laying temperatures, warm mix asphalts (WMA) allow a reduction of the energy consumption as well as the emissions, thus contributing to the sustainable development. However researches are necessary for these asphalt mixtures to ...
