Adaptation of the Folin-Ciocalteu and Fast Blue BB spectrophotometric methods to digital image analysis for the determination of total phenolic content: Reduction of reaction time, interferences and sample analysis
(Elsevier, 2024-02)
The Folin-Ciocalteu (FC) method is the most common method used for total phenolic content (TPC) determination, but in recent years, a more specific method that does not detect non-phenolic reducing compounds has been ...
Yoghurt standardization using real-time NIR prediction of milk fat and protein content
(Elsevier, 2024-04)
A system based on near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been developed for the in-line control of the composition of the milk used as raw material for yoghurt production to control the content of protein and fat in the final ...
Making Room for Silicon: Including SiOx in a Graphite-Based Anode Formulation and Harmonization in 1 Ah Cells
(MDPI, 2024-03-28)
Transitioning to more ambitious electrode formulations facilitates developing high-energy density cells, potentially fulfilling the demands of electric car manufacturers. In this context, the partial replacement of the ...
Rationalizing the Effect of the MAA/PEGMA Ratio of Comb-Shape Copolymers Synthetized by Aqueous Free-Radical Copolymerization in the Hydration Kinetics of Ordinary Portland Cements
(Wiley, 2023-08)
Methacrylic acid-co-poly(ethylene glycol methacrylate) (MAA-co-PEGMA) copolymers (MPEG-type polycarboxylate ether (PCE) superplasticizers) are characterized by a comb-like structure. Although they have been used for years ...
Naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylate based zinc coordination polymers: a photophysical study
(RSC, 2024)
Herein, we report the synthesis and photoluminescence properties of a new 1,3-dioxo-2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline-6,7-dicarboxylic (H3L) ligand and three coordination polymers (CPs). Compound ...
Degradable Alternating Copolymers by Radical Copolymerization of 2-Methylen-1,3-dioxepane and Crotonate Esters
(ACS, 2024-03)
Producing backbone degradable copolymers via free-radical copolymerization is a promising, yet challenging method to develop more sustainable materials for many applications. In this work, we present the copolymerization ...
Current Trends and Perspectives of Polymers in Batteries
(ACS, 2024-03)
This Perspective aims to present the current status and future opportunities for polymer science in battery technologies. Polymers play a crucial role in improving the performance of the ubiquitous lithium ion battery. But ...
Zwitterionic stabilized water-borne polymer colloids for antifouling coatings
(Elsevier, 2024-03)
This study presents antifouling waterborne (meth)acrylic coatings prepared through seeded semi-continuous emulsion polymerization, using trace amounts of a zwitterionic monomer 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl dimethyl-(3-sulfop ...
Synthesis of Waterborne Anticorrosive Coatings Based on The Incorporation of Phosphate Groups to Polyurethane-Acrylate Hybrids
(Wiley, 2023-08)
In this work, solvent-free waterborne polyurethane-poly(meth)acrylate hybrid dispersions that can be used to formulate anticorrosive paints are synthesized. To achieve the anticorrosive protection, a phosphate containing ...
Development of a high-throughput platform to measure plasmid transfer frequency
(Frontiers Media, 2023-10)
Antibiotic resistance represents one of the greatest threats to global health. The spread of antibiotic resistance genes among bacteria occurs mostly through horizontal gene transfer via conjugation mediated by plasmids. ...
