Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Organoclay from Sodium Montmorillonite and Fatty Hydroxamic AcidsWisam H. Hoidy, Mansor B. Ahmad, Emad A. Jaffar Al Mulla, Nor Azowa Bt IbrahimProblem statement: Sodium Montmorillonite (Na-MMT) has been modified via cation exchange reaction using Fatty Hydroxamic Acids (FHAs) synthesized from palm oil as a surfactant to produce organoclay which is used to prepare polymer nanocomposites. Approach: Basal spacing, functional groups identification and thermal stability of this Organo-Montmorillonite (OMMT) were characterized using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Thermogravimetric … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 9,305 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptical Nonlinear Proreties and Optical Limiting Effect of Metanil YellowR. K. Rekha, A. RamalingamProblem statement: The third order nonlinear optical properties of organic polymers are used in high speed telecommunication, optical limiters and optical computers. The purpose of the study was to determine the third order nonlinear characteristics and optical limiting effect of the organic dye, metanil yellow in liquid and solid medium. Approach: The samples were prepared by dissolving the dye in … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 18 Jun 2009 · 7,719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSide Effects and Complications of Dental Materials on Oral CavityZahra Atai, Mohammad AtaiDevelopment of dental materials has had a great impact on the modern dentistry. The materials ranging from polymers to metals have different applications in dentistry. Besides their important role in healing or improving the function of oral tissues, the materials may show side effects which may, in some cases, lead to severe lesions. In this review the side effects have … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,319 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComposite Scaffolds for Bone Tissue EngineeringMin WangBiomaterial and scaffold development underpins the advancement of tissue engineering. Traditional scaffolds based on biodegradable polymers such as poly(lactic acid) and poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) are weak and non-osteoconductive. For bone tissue engineering, polymer-based composite scaffolds containing bioceramics such as hydroxyapatite can be produced and used. The bioceramics can be either incorporated in the scaffolds as a dispersed secondary phase or … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,355 accessesView PDFCite
