Hybrid lattice structure with micro graphite filler manufactured via additive manufacturing and growth foam polyurethane

The utilisation of lightweight structures is a common practice across a range of disciplines, including the construction of light steel frames, sandwich panels, and transportation infrastructure, among others. The advantages of lightweight structures include design flexibility, weight reduction, and the sustainability of materials that can be easily recycled. However, these advantages also present significant weaknesses. Compared to solid materials with compact weight, lightweight structures do not have the same characteristics. With the reduction in material weight, the strength of the lightweight structure decreases significantly compared to solid materials. In this study, the lightweight structure was made using additive manufacturing and reinforced with solid Composite Polyurethane Foam reinforced with graphite filler expanded into the lightweight structure. The results showed that in the compression test, the mixture with 2 % graphite filler had the highest value of 2.5 kN. The highest hardness test on the specimen with a 2 % graphite mixture was 19.8 HA. FT-IR testing showed that the carbon bonds from graphite in the 2 % specimen had the highest intensity. The test results showed that the addition of Polyurethane Foam into the structure could enhance material strength effectively without adding significant material weight.

The effect of hydrothermal conditions on surface properties of synthesized nano SBA-15 using sodium silicate

A successful synthesis of mesoporous Santa Barbara amorphous (SBA-15) with nanoparticle size was attempted using prepared sodium silicate from Iraqi high silica sand. EO20PO70EO20 copolymer was used as a template at highly acidic conditions (pH < 2). The effect of crystallization temperature of (100, 110, 120, and 130 0C), and crystallization time of (24, 48, 72, and 120 h) on surface properties was studied. The experiments were characterized using XRD, FTIR, AFM, BET, and FESEM. The XRD and FTIR tests represent amorphous SBA-15 without any impurities. Decreasing average particle size distribution increased the surface area, and decreased the porosity (pore volume, and pore size) in all experiments. The texture properties were surface area of 210-756 cm2/g, volume pore of 0.28-0.7 cm3/g, and pore size of 1.94-13.45 nm. The optimum result of surface area was achieved at hydrothermal conditions of 110 0C, and 24 h, while optimum results of pore volume, and pore size were achieved at hydrothermal conditions of 100 0C, and 120 h. Semi-spherical shape of particles appeared at hydrothermal conditions of 120 0C and 24 h. This morphology was transferred to small rods at 130 0C, and to semi-platelets at 120 h.

Formulation and Evaluation of Floating Tablets Using Natural Polymer.

Gastro-retentive effervescent floating tablets containing quetiapine fumarate (QP) are available using different viscosity grades of HPMC (HPMC K4M, HPMC K15M, and HPMC K100M) and TD made by the direct compression technique.The outcomes of the pre-compression parameters indicate that the powder mix of the formulations of both drugs has shown good micromeritic properties. Every tablet formulation that was made had the same amount of drug in it. The low standard deviation results imply that the drugs are distributed uniformly throughout the matrices.Drug compatibility with excipients is demonstrated by DSC and FTIR testing. It was discovered that the floating lag time was influenced by the concentration of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate. All the formulations (QP1 to QP17) floated for more than 24 hours, while the QP formulations remained buoyant for more than 12 hours. Accordingly, the present study’s results suggest that the QP floating system has a promising future as a substitute for the corresponding conventional dosage form.

Shield-armed probiotic delivery system based on co-deposition of poly-dopamine and poly-l-lysine helps Lactiplantibacillus plantarum relieve hyperuricemia

Hyperuricemia (HUA) is a disease characterized by an abnormal metabolism of purine. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have attracted much attention for their safe and effective treatment of HUA by inhibiting xanthine oxidase (XOD) and regulating gut microbiota. However, the effectiveness of probiotics can be compromised by the harsh environment of the gastrointestinal tract. In preliminary experiments, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DY1, which is generally regarded as safe (GRAS), can lower uric acid. We have devised a straightforward and efficient technique for encapsulating DY1 using a coating comprising polydopamine (PDA) co-deposited with poly-l-lysine (PLL) to obtain DY1@PDLL. TEM, SEM, FT-IR and DLS tests showed that DY1 was successfully coated. Incubate at SGF or SIF for 3 h, the number of viable bacteria of free probiotics and DY1@PDLL decreased by 0.92 and 0.46 log cfu/mL, 1.66 and 0.66 log cfu/mL, respectively. The fluorescence intensity of the intestines of the DY1@PDLL treated mice was 3.96 times that of free probiotic. Notably, DY1@PDLL can reduce the uric acid levels of HUA mice by 31.63 % and free probiotics by 18.72 % (≈1.69 times). DY1@PDLL could also regulate gut microbiota and serum metabolic profile. These findings unequivocally highlight the remarkable potential of DY1@PDLL as an exceptional oral probiotic delivery system.

Design, synthesis, characterization, DFT, molecular docking, and in vitro screening of metal chelates incorporating Schiff base

Hydrazones, with an azomethine -NHN=CH group, are extensively researched due to their easy preparation and numerous pharmaceutical benefits. A hydrazone derivative was formed by combining N,N-dimethyl amino benzaldehyde (1) and hydrazine hydrate (2), producing-4-(methanehydrazonoyl)-N,N-dimethylaniline (3). The final product (H1L) ligand was produced by reacting with ethyl acetate. The new complexes were formed by reacting Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) with the ligand in a 1M:2L molar ratio. Complexes were synthesized with high yields. Metal chelate structures were identified through elemental analyses, FT-IR, magnetic moment, XRD, and molar conductivity tests. According to FT-IR findings, the Schiff base ligand displayed neutral bidentate properties by binding with metal ions via the azomethine N and carbonyl O. Magnetic moment research indicated an octahedral structure and high electrolytic properties, with the exception of Co(II) and Zn(II) complexes, which were observed to be non-electrolytes. Theoretical calculations were performed using DFT. The synthesized complexes were tested for antibacterial activity against two types of Gram-positive bacteria: S. aureus and B. subtilis. Molecular docking analysis revealed information about the ligand's binding energy and interaction with the S. aureus receptor.

Comprehensive protection against ammonia by Cu2+ modified activated carbon

An innovative “material-component-whole” evaluation model was used to assess the overall protective performance of gas masks against ammonia. Coconut shell-based carbon (AC-S), coconut shell-impregnated carbon (ACCu-S), coal-based carbon (AC-C), and coal-impregnated carbon (ACCu-C) were chosen as the adsorbents for this study. The physicochemical characteristics of the activated carbon samples were analyzed through SEM, BET, FT-IR, EA, XPS and XRD tests. This research delves into the breakthrough curves of ammonia gas by the activated carbon and canisters under varying concentrations of ammonia, ambient temperatures, airflow velocities, and relative humidity, also exploring the breakthrough curves of ammonia gas by gas masks under different ammonia concentrations and airflow patterns while considering both dynamic and static adsorption of activated carbon. The empirical results show that increased levels of ammonia concentration, ambient temperature, and airflow velocities lead to decreased protection duration of activated carbon and canisters. Conversely, an elevation in the relative humidity within the ammonia gas stream results in an expansion of the protection time. This study found a linear correlation between the protection time of S and C canisters and the corresponding protection time of the impregnated carbon. Lastly, the protective time of gas masks in sinusoidal airflow mode is highlighted as having a more significant impact.

Development and properties of bio-based polymer composites using PLA and untreated agro-industrial residues

This research developed a bio-based polymer composite using polylactic acid (PLA) and agro-industrial residues from coffee by-products (without chemical modification and the use of coupling agents or stabilizers). Agro-industrial residues, such as spent coffee ground (SCG) and coffee silver skin (CSS) as filler, were added into the PLA matrix in different percentages by weight, from 0.5 to 10 wt%. The bio-composites were prepared using solvent-cast films and were characterized by various techniques, including FT-IR, TGA, DSC, XRD, SEM and mechanical tests. Bio-composites' formation was verified using FT-IR and SEM; the material showed good interfacial interaction, with percentages between 3 and 5 wt%. XRD and DSC determined the percentage crystallinity in the bio-composites. SEM found that the bio-composites form crystals, showing their limits after mechanical testing. The bio-composites exhibited enhanced thermal and mechanical properties compared to neat PLA.These bio-based composites show great potential for a wide range of applications in the food industry, including disposable and single-use materials, as well as food packaging. Moreover, their use can significantly contribute to the global demand for eco-friendly materials.

Optimization of crude rotenone oil extraction from birbira plant (Milletia ferruginea) seed by Soxhlet and maceration methods

The extraction of active compounds from plant materials is one of the most critical processes in the commercial development of natural products for pharmaceutical, herbicide or pesticide production. The focus of this study was extraction of crude rotenone oil (CRO) from Birbira plant (Milletia ferruginea) seed. The extraction was done using maceration anda Soxhlet extractor using organic solvents, such as ethanol, hexane, and chloroform. For the efficient extraction of crude rotenone oil from Birbira plant seed the effect of parameters, such as extraction method, solvent type, extraction time and size of crushed Birbira seed were investigated. Based on the experimental results obtained Soxhlet extraction method was more efficient (41.6% CRO yield) compared to the maceration extraction method (25.1 % CRO yield). The extraction results for both Soxhlet and maceration methods indicated that chloroform is more efficient compared to ethanol and hexane solvents. On the other hand, the effects of crashed seed size and extraction time on the % CRO yield were also investigated. The results showed that medium size (0.1–0.35 mm) for both Soxhlet and maceration extraction was the optimum size leading to the highest % CRO yield compared to fine and coarse ground seed size. The highest % CRO yield was obtained during 4 to 5 h of Soxhlet extraction and 25 to 30 h of maceration extraction method. Therefore, the Soxhlet extraction method is the fastest and efficient method for the extraction of CRO from plant materials. The characterization of Birbira seed powder and CRO was done with FTIR and Rheology test equipment. The FTIR result revealed that CRO is composed of aliphatic, olefin, polyphenol and alcohol functional groups, in which polyphenol functional groups are the most essential flavonoid components available in crude rotenone oil.

Investigation of biodegradable surfactant as a corrosion inhibitor to the cold rolled steel in the membrane separation device process

The membrane process is an effective way to realize resource reutilization. Most membrane devices are made of cold-roll steel (CRS), which is easy to corrode when operating in acid conditions. Herein, the biodegradable surfactant dodecyl dimethyl betaine (BS-12) was used as the inhibitor to protect the CRS in the trichloroacetic acid (TCA) solution. The long-term stability membrane tests showed that adding BS-12 will not harm the membrane performance. The weight loss experiments proved that adding BS-12 with trace amount (10 mg·L−1) endowed the CRS with good inhibition efficiency (95.3 %). The electrochemical tests indicated that the mixed inhibitor- BS-12 works by inhibiting the anode and cathode simultaneously, and the polarization resistance increased to 21 times. The SEM, AFM, and CLSM tests proved that adding BS-12 enabled the CRS surface to remain stable. The FTIR and XPS tests proved that BS-12 adsorbed on the CRS surface via physical and chemical adsorption. The theoretical calculations proved the horizontal adsorption of BS-12 on the CRS surface and the existence of the electron transfer within the BS-12 and CRS. The BS-12 showed great potential in the CRS inhibition of the membrane separation and purification processing.

Utilization of the mixture of ethylene tar and different petrochemical by-products as collectors for coal flotation

ABSTRACT The ethylene tar and mixtures of ethylene tar with other petrochemical by-products were used as collectors for coal flotation. The results showed that the 1# compound collector was better than kerosene in terms of selectivity and collectibility for coal flotation. When the collector dosage was 1500 g/t, the yield of clean coal using the 1# compound collector increased by 4.05%, and the reduction in ash content was 0.36% lower compared to using kerosene. The mechanism of action of 1# compound collector on the coal surface was analyzed in combination with GC-MS tests and FTIR tests. The 1# compound collector contains more aromatics, olefins and heteropolar substances than kerosene. When the aromatics in the 1# compound collector interact with the nonpolar sites on the coal surface via π–π stacking interactions, some of the polar sites sandwiched between the aromatic compound molecules are covered. The olefins contained therein engage with the nonpolar sites on the surface experiences interactions attributable to van der Waals forces. The oxygenated functional groups of alcohols, acids, esters and carbonyl compounds engage with the polar sites on the surface of the particles through hydrogen bonding.

Polypyrrole-encapsulated TiSe2 with excellent electrochemical performance for potassium-ion storage

TiSe2 as a potential electrode for potassium-ion batteries, has garnered significant attention owing to its stable ion storage property. Nevertheless, the inadequate electronic conductivity of TiSe2 impedes its practical implementation. In this investigation, we adopt a polymerization method to fabricate TiSe2@PPy, which boasts enhanced conductivity and exceptional performance. Once coated with polypyrrole, the TiSe2@PPy composites demonstrate the optimum electrochemical performance, providing a charge capacity of 67.4 mAh g−1 at 1 C with a capacity retention of 68.4 % after 170 cycles. The PPy coating enhances the conductivity of TiSe2 and enables potassium-ion batteries to exhibit outstanding electrochemical performance. Ex-situ Raman and FTIR tests are utilized to comprehend the electrochemical reaction between K+ and the TiSe2@PPy electrode during cycling. Overall, this work introduces a PPy coating on TiSe2, which presents a novel concept for the development.

Synthesis of graphene-MnO2-poly (2,2’-dithiodianiline) composite for high performance electrochemical electrode materials

Abstract In this study, a hybrid graphene/manganese dioxide/poly(2,2’-dithiodianiline) (graphene/MnO2/PDTDA) composite material was in-situ prepared by chemical oxidative polymerization of PDTDA in graphene/MnO2 and applied as supercapacitor electrode materials in alkaline electrolyte. The morphology, structure, and particularly the electrochemical performances of such graphene/MnO2/PDTDA composite was characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR, and electrochemical tests. The results showed that the graphene/MnO2/PDTDA ternary composite possessed the advantages of both double-layer capacitance and Faraday’s pseudocapacitance behaviours, thus leading to the highest specific capacitance of 96.35 F·g−1 as compared to the binary MnO2/PDTDA electrode material (35.26 F·g−1) at a current density of 10 mA·cm−1, implying potential candidate in future supercapacitor electrode materials.

Development of in situ forming autologous fibrin scaffold incorporating synthetic teriparatide peptide for bone tissue engineering.

This study investigates the potential of an in-situ forming scaffold using a fibrin-based scaffold derived from autologous plasma combined with Synthetic Teriparatide (TP) for bone regeneration application. TP is known for its bone formation stimulation but has limited clinical use due to side effects. This autologous delivery system aims to provide precise, controlled, localized, and long-term release of TP for accelerating bone regeneration. Fibrinogen from autologous plasma was extracted using ethanol, and thrombin was precipitated with ammonium sulfate to create the fibrin scaffold. Characterization of fibrinogen was done through FTIR, SDS-Page, porosity, SEM, degradation, and rheology tests. Viability was assessed by MTT in five groups with different concentrations of TP in fibrin scaffold (50, 100, and 150 µl/ml), fibrin alone, and a control group against HEK and Wharton's jelly cells. The release profile of different concentrations of TP in the fibrin scaffold was also examined. The formation time of the fibrin scaffold was 4 ± 0.2 s. The highest Infrared absorption for fibrinogen was confirmed. Rheology assessment revealed a higher elastic modulus than the viscous modulus. The created fibrin scaffold displayed a consistent three-dimensional microstructure with an interconnected porous network. Cytotoxicity assays demonstrated good biocompatibility and enhanced cell growth with different concentrations of TP in the fibrin scaffold. The TP release increased with higher concentrations, peaking at an average of 61% over 54 h. Autologous plasma-derived fibrin scaffolds incorporating TP exhibit satisfactory release within the scaffold and hold promise as a versatile bone filler for clinical use, facilitating osteoregeneration.

Impact of variety and drying methods on the physicochemical, functional, and thermal properties of Ethiopian potato (Plectranthus edulis) tuber flour

This study aimed to analyse the physicochemical, structural, functional, and thermal properties of flour from two indigenous Ethiopian Potato (Plectranthus edulis) varieties, Chanqua and Loffo, and to compare with wheat flour (WF). The study also investigated how oven and sun drying methods affected the physicochemical properties of the flours. The results demonstrated a significant distinction (p ≤ 0.05) between the flour samples and WF, attributable to variations in both the varieties and the drying methods except that no significant difference in pH was observed due to the varieties, and the fibre and ash content did not vary significantly with the drying methods. The moisture content (MC) of the flours ranged from 5.72 % in oven-dried Chanqua Ethiopian potato flour (OD-CEPF) to 7.53 % in sun-dried Loffo Ethiopian potato flour (SD-LEPF), both of which were lower compared to WF. The protein content varied from 4.47 % (SD-CEPF) to 5.93 % (OD-LEPF). FTIR tests revealed a significant impact on the structural changes, leading to variations in the location and intensity of infrared absorption peaks, particularly in sensitive regions. Whereas, the XRD patterns showed characteristic B-type diffraction, with a relative crystallinity (RC) of 31.97 % in CEPF and 30.53 % in LEPF having a significant difference (p ≤ 0.05) between them. LEPF had better flow properties than CEPF, with lower Hausner ratio (HR) (1.16 vs. 1.25), Carr's index (CI) (14.51 % vs. 20.26 %), and angle of repose (31.00° vs. 34.67°). It also showed significantly higher (p ≤ 0.05) water absorption capacity (WAC), oil absorption capacity (OAC) and swelling power (SP) properties than CEPF. The study also indicated notable distinctions in the thermal and paring properties of flours. The oven drying method was found to be superior in enhancing the physicochemical properties, with LEPF showing better physicochemical, functional, structural, and thermal properties than CEPF.

Fabricated ZnIn2S4/Cu2S S-scheme heterojunction with snowflake structure for boosting photocatalytic CO2 reduction in gas–solid reactor

Designing S-scheme heterojunctions has become a powerful strategy to enhance photocatalytic activity and improve the localization of catalyst surface charge. Therefore, more and more research has been devoted to S-scheme heterojunctions. In this work, we employed a simple two-step hydrothermal method to fabricate S-scheme ZnIn2S4/Cu2S (ZIS/Cu2S) heterojunctions. The results show that the composites exhibit good performance in the photoreduction of CO2 to CO and CH4. Especially, at 40 %-ZIS/Cu2S, the release rates of CO and CH4 were 13.35 μmol g−1 and 34.81 μmol g−1 under the condition of a 4 h reaction, and the selectivity of CH4 reached 80 %. In addition, the in situ FTIR test revealed that the catalyst promoted the formation of the key intermediates COOH* and CH3O* under the effect of light interaction, which was favorable to the photoreduction of CO2. This indicates that the electron transfer path of S-type not only promotes the separation of carriers for conversion but also has a strong redox ability to selectively convert CO2 to CH4, which provides some thoughts for the design of S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts. This provides some thoughts for the design of S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts.

Biocide physically cross-linked hydrogels based on carrageenan and guanidinium polyampholytes for wound healing applications

Over last years, hydrogels based on natural polymers have attracted considerable interest as materials for wound healing. Herein, hydrogel films based on kappa-carrageenan and guanidinium polyampholytes were prepared by the in situ physical cross-linking with potassium chloride and borax, respectively. The polyampholytes were obtained by a free radical copolymerization of 2,2-diallyl-1,1,3,3-tetraethylguanidinium chloride and unsaturated acids. To characterize the composite films, NMR, FTIR, SEM, TGA, XRD, element analysis and tensile test were used. Ampicillin was incorporated into the hydrogels to enhance wound healing potential. The healing-related characteristics, including swelling ratio, drug release and antimicrobial activity, were assessed. The equilibrium swelling ratios were in the range of 3.9–6.5 depending on the polyampholyte composition. According to the in vitro ampicillin release studies, 30–43 % of ampicillin was released from the hydrogels after 5 h at 37 °C and pH 7.4, with drug release being temperature and pH dependent. The ampicillin-loaded films showed a remarkable antimicrobial effect. The inhibition sizes for Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were 1.10–1.85 and 1.95–2.60 cm, respectively. Although the bi-polymeric hydrogels were thoroughly characterized, with the in vitro study of their biocidal effects carried out in this work, the in vivo drug release assessment needs to be further explored.

Modification of the Crumb Rubber Asphalt by Eucommia Ulmoides Gum under a High-Temperature Mixing Process

The crumb rubber (CR) asphalt has some defects of high viscosity and poor storage stability, which brings great challenge to the high-quality construction of the CR asphalt pavement. To improve the interaction between the CR and base binder, the Eucommia ulmoides gum (EUG) with double-bond structure similar to trans-polyoctenamer rubber (TOR) was used to modify the CR asphalt. However, the original EUG double bond is basically inactive at room temperature and cannot form the effect of TOR. Open double bonds of EUG with asphalt and rubber powder form a network structure similar to TOR-modified rubber asphalt by high-temperature mixing with EUG in a torque rheometer. The effects of modified CR on rubber asphalt were analyzed by macro- and micro-experiments such as rotational viscosity tests, segregation tests, FTIR tests, and PG tests. It was found that the high-temperature mixing process works in both physical and chemical ways to mix the CR and EUG into an inseparable substance. The modified CR has higher chemical activity after desulfurization and degradation, which allows it to form a more effective chemical connection with asphalt. EUG can build a stable spatial crosslinking structure in CR asphalt due to the sulfurization reaction, which significantly improves the construction workability and system stability of the CR asphalt.

Plastic has been used in daily life due to its durability. Fishing net waste is a type of plastic waste that is dangerous. Fishing net waste can also damage marine biota, such as coral reefs and marine animals. One type of polyamide that is widely used is nylon. Fishing net waste containing nylon has the potential to be recycled. In this research, fishing net waste is used for automotive product applications using a twin-screw extruder. There are five variations: pure polyamide (PA), recycled polyamide (rPA), PA-rPA 50:50, PA-rPA 75:25, and PA-rPA 25:75. To be able to determine the characteristics of the mixed product, several tests were carried out, including testing the thermal properties of the final product with DSC and FTIR testing to identify functional groups. Based on the research results, it was found that all variations contained polyamide polymers, which were characterized by a melting temperature of 218.8–224.4 °C and obtained carbonyl functional groups (C=O) and secondary amine functional groups (N–H) in the FTIR test results, which indicated the presence of amide bonds in the samples.

One-step hydrothermal fabrication of Co-MOFs/LDH superhydrophobic composite coating with corrosion resistance and wear resistance on anodic aluminum oxide

In recent years, metal–organic framework materials (MOFs) have garnered significant attention in the field of metal corrosion protection. In this study, novel Co-MOFs were synthesized using cobalt nitrate as the metal source and 4,4′-bipyridine as the organic ligand. A one-step solvothermal method was employed to synthesize a black MOFs/LDH composite coating, integrating corrosion resistance, friction reduction, and hydrophobicity into a single coating. The successful reaction between metal ions and organic ligands was confirmed through FTIR, FE-SEM, EDX, XRD, and XPS characterization tests. Cross-sectional SEM and EDX analyses demonstrated the successful synthesis of the coating. Electrochemical tests indicated that after 14 days of immersion in 3.5 wt% NaCl, the composite coating exhibited the lowest corrosion current of 2.23 × 10−9 A∙cm−2, outperforming the aluminum substrate (5.99 × 10−6 A∙cm−2) and anodized aluminum (7.08 × 10−7 A∙cm−2). Hydrophobicity tests showed that without additional modification with low surface energy substances, the composite coating had a contact angle of 154.7°, demonstrating excellent hydrophobicity. Tribological tests revealed that the composite coating exhibited superior tribological performance, with a friction coefficient of 0.3.
