Dual-responsive (pH/temperature) Pluronic F-127 hydrogel drug delivery system for textile-based transdermal therapy
TL;DR: A dual-responsive hydrogel was developed from a thermos-responsive polymer, pluronic F-127 (PF127), and pH-responsive polymers, N,N,N-trimethyl chitosan (TMC) and polyethylene glycolated hyaluronic acid (PEG-HA) to enhance drug release from the hydrogels, and increase the drug targeting of the carriers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoresponsive Hydrogels and Their Biomedical Applications: Special Insight into Their Applications in Textile Based Transdermal Therapy
TL;DR: The current review focuses on the preparation, physico-chemical properties and various biomedical applications of thermoresponsive hydrogels based on natural and synthetic polymers and especially, their applications in developing functionalized textiles for transdermal therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface properties of low-temperature plasma treated wool fabrics
TL;DR: In this article, the surface properties of wool fabrics created by the sputtering of low-temperature plasma treatment, such as surface lustre, wettability, surface electrostatic and dyeability, have been investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dan Liu,Jukka Pekka Matinlinna,James K.H. Tsoi,Edmond H.N. Pow,Takashi Miyazaki,Yo Shibata,Chi Wai Kan +6 more
TL;DR: The presented new modified laser pre-treatment might be an alternative way to sandblasting for improving zirconia/porcelain integration and both sandblasted and laser irradiation increased porcelain zIRconia bond strength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determining Functional Groups of Commercially Available Ink-Jet Printing Reactive Dyes Using Infrared Spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, an infrared spectroscopic technique was used to determine the possible functional groups and chemical compounds present in commercially available ink-jet printing reactive dyes of four primary colours, i.e. Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black.
