Journal ArticleDOI
Polymerization Reactions and Modifications of Polymers by Ionizing Radiation.
Aiysha Ashfaq,M.-C. Clochard,Xavier Coqueret,Clelia Dispenza,Mark Driscoll,Piotr Ulanski,Mohamad Al-Sheikhly +6 more
TL;DR: The fundamentals of polymerization reactions are herein presented to meet industrial needs for various polymer materials produced or degraded by irradiation, and the competition between the crosslinking reactions of C-centered free radicals and their reactions with oxygen is described through fundamental mechanism formalisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrically conductive hydrogel composites made of polyaniline nanoparticles and poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone)
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel electrically conductive composite material, consisting of polyaniline (PANI) nanoparticles dispersed in a polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) hydrogel, was prepared by water dispersion polymerisation (DP) of aniline using PVP as steric stabiliser, followed by γ-irradiation induced crosslinking of the PVP component.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accelerated ageing due to moisture absorption of thermally cured epoxy resin/polyethersulphone blends. Thermal, mechanical and morphological behaviour
TL;DR: In this article, a model epoxy resin/anhydride system, modified with a polyethersulfone (PES) engineering thermoplastic toughening agent, has been studied under hydrothermal ageing in order to investigate the modification of the thermal, morphological and mechanical behaviour through dynamical mechanical thermal analysis, SEM microscopy and fracture toughness test respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ionizing radiation-engineered nanogels as insulin nanocarriers for the development of a new strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease
Pasquale Picone,Lorena Anna Ditta,Maria Antonietta Sabatino,Valeria Militello,Pier Luigi San Biagio,Maria Laura Di Giacinto,Laura Cristaldi,Domenico Nuzzo,Clelia Dispenza,Clelia Dispenza,Daniela Giacomazza,Marta Di Carlo +11 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that the synthesized NG-In is a suitable vehicle system for insulin deliver in biomedicine and a very promising tool to develop new therapies for neurodegenerative diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nose-to-brain delivery of insulin enhanced by a nanogel carrier
Pasquale Picone,Maria Antonietta Sabatino,Lorena Anna Ditta,Antonella Amato,Pier Luigi San Biagio,Flavia Mulè,Daniela Giacomazza,Clelia Dispenza,Marta Di Carlo +8 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that the synthesized NG‐In enhances brain insulin delivery upon i.n. administration and strongly encourage its further evaluation as therapeutic agent against some neurodegenerative diseases.
