University Social Responsibility towards Engineering Undergraduates: The Effect of Methodology on a Service-Learning Experience
(MDPI, 2018-06)
Service-Learning (SL) experiences enable University Social Responsibility (USR) to be worked on in engineering studies as a core of education for Sustainability. The combined use of such experiences with active student-centered ...
Tribocorrosion of high-strength low-alloy steels and coatings used in offshore applications.
(2018-11-28)
La presente tesis doctoral se centra en el estudio del comportamiento frente a tribocorrosión (corrosión y desgaste) de aceros de alta resistencia y baja aleación (HSLA, por sus signas en inglés) y recubrimientos utilizados ...
Development of Magnetically Active Scaffolds for Bone Regeneration
(MDPI, 2018-09)
This work reports on the synthesis, with the thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) technique, of poly (l-lactide) (PLLA) scaffolds containing Fe-doped hydroxyapatite (FeHA) particles for bone regeneration. Magnetization ...
New products from lignin.
(2018-03-22)
La revalorización de la lignina se ve restringida por la heterogeneidad de su estructura, la cual varía en gran medida dependiendo de su origen lignocelulósico y el proceso de extracción del que se ha obtenido. Sin embargo, ...
Compound Formation And Microstructure Of As-Cast High Entropy Aluminums
(MDPI, 2018-03-09)
The aim of this work is to study the microstructure of four high entropy alloys (HEAs) produced by large scale vacuum die casting. Al40Cu15Mn5Ni5Si20Zn15, Al45Cu15Mn5Fe5Si5Ti5Zn20, Al35Cu5Fe5Mn5Si30V10Zr10, and ...
Radiopaque Material for 3D Printing Scaffolds
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2018)
The so called “Additive manufacturing” is a new manufacturing process which consists in translating virtual solid model data into physical models in a quick and easy process. The most known example is 3D printing. In the ...
Biodegradable Polyester / Crystalline Nanocellulose Nanocomposites for Biomedical Applications: Preparation and Characterization
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2018)
The use of biodegradable polymers in biomedicine is rising and polymer matrices loaded with reinforcements can be good candidates for temporary implants and tissue engineering scaffolds. In this work poly (ethylene brassylate) ...
Catechol End-Functionalized Polylactide by Organocatalyzed Ring-Opening Polymerization
(MDPI, 2018-02-06)
There is a great interest in incorporating catechol moieties into polymers in a controlled manner due to their interesting properties, such as the promotion of adhesion, redox activity or bioactivity. One possibility is ...
Development of poly (3- caprolactone) based biodegradable polymeric blends with biologically active compounds for making drug eluting medical devices
(2018-03-28)
Casi la mitad de las infecciones nosocomiales (aquellas contraídas durante la hospitalización) están asociadas a la utilización de dispositivos biomédicos. Son infecciones difíciles de tratar y muchas de ellas, implican ...
Miscibility, interactions and antimicrobial activity of poly(ε-caprolactone)/ chloramphenicol blends
(Elsevier, 2018-03-13)
Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) has been blended with Chloramphenicol (CAM), a well-known bacteriostatic antibiotic, in order to obtain new biomaterials with antibacterial properties. The resulting samples have been thoroughly ...
