Deposition of environmentally relevant nanoplastic models in sand during transport experiments

Nanoplastics (NPTs) are defined as colloids that originated from the unintentional degradation of plastic debris. To understand the possible risks caused by NPTs, it is crucial to determine how they are transported and where they may finally accumulate. Unfortunately, although…

Corrosion inhibition of Ti6Al4V alloy by a protective plasma electrolytic oxidation coating modified with boron carbide nanoparticles

Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is a cost-effective and versatile technique to achieve protective oxide coatings in light metals. Composite coatings containing B4C nanoparticles were produced by the PEO technique on a Ti6Al4V alloy. (204 characters)

Convenient characterization of polymers grafted on cellulose nanocrystals via SI-ATRP without chain cleavage

Cleaving is usually required to characterize the molecular weight of grafted polymers on substrates. Here, we report on a technique to estimate the molecular weight of grafted polystyrene (PS) (Mngrafted PS) in PS-grafted cellulose nanocrystals (PS-g-CNCs) without chain cleavage. PS-g-CNCs…

Controlling polymersome size through microfluidic-assisted self-assembly: Enabling ‘ready to use’ formulations for biological applications

The self-assembly of poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(trimethylene carbonate) PEG-b-PTMC copolymers into vesicles, also referred as polymersomes, was evaluated by solvent displacement using microfluidic systems. Two microfluidic chips with different flow regimes (micromixer and Herringbone) were used and the impact of process conditions…
