Background The prevalence of breast cancer and its mortality rate are increasing rapidly among women worldwide. On other hand, the courses of chemotherapy as the main treatment …
An investigation was performed into the effect of surfactants on the rheology of water-in-oil highly concentrated emulsions (HCE). The surfactants were oligomers of the PIBSA-type with …
Lithium-based batteries have revolutionized the electrochemical energy storage field, where liquid electrolytes are most used. Despite having high energy density and ionic conductivity, …
The aim of this study is to prepare nanocomposite hydrogel based on gelatin/oxidized alginate, and evaluate its reinforcement by incorporation of nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) for use in …
A series of biodegradable amphiphilic-block segmented polyurethanes (SPUs) are designed and synthesized based on di-block and tri-block macrodiols of polycaprolactone (PCL) and …
Emulsions are applicable across various industrial and research sectors, which makes analyzing their rheological behavior crucial. In this article, we discuss the links between droplet …
Double network (DN) hydrogels have been recognized as new tough materials for several industries due to their precise structural platforms and significant properties. However, a …
Binary mixtures of highly concentrated emulsions (HCE) with three droplet size ratios and different compositions were prepared. It was found that by the proper selection of droplet size …
We investigated the correlation between the time evolution of the different phase-separating morphologies and corresponding linear and transient rheological behaviors for the …
High water loss in arid and semi-arid regions makes it difficult for plants and microorganisms to thrive, which then prohibits generating organic matter in the soil. We hypothesize that the …
