Journal ArticleDOI
Silver nanoparticles and polymeric medical devices: a new approach to prevention of infection?
Franck Furno,Kelly S. Morley,Ben Wong,Barry L. Sharp,Polly L. Arnold,Steven M. Howdle,Roger Bayston,Paul D. Brown,Peter D. Winship,Helen J. Reid +9 more
TL;DR: A completely new approach using supercritical carbon dioxide to impregnate silicone with nanoparticulate silver metal allows for the first time silver impregnation of medical polymers and promises to lead to an antimicrobial biomaterial whose activity is not restricted by increasing antibiotic resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
The preparation of gold nanoparticle composites using supercritical carbon dioxide
TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis of gold nanoparticles supported on silica using supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO 2 ) was presented, and the average gold particle sizes ranged from 3.7 to 6.6 µm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasticization and spraying of poly (DL‐lactic acid) using supercritical carbon dioxide: control of particle size
Jianyuan Hao,Martin J. Whitaker,Ben Wong,Gulay Serhatkulu,Kevin M. Shakesheff,Steven M. Howdle +5 more
TL;DR: A method of controlling particle size during the spray process by introducing a backpressure of N2 in the collecting chamber, which dynamically regulates the loss of CO2 from the issuing polymer/CO2 mixture, leading to control over sprayed particle size.
