TL;DR: In this article, phase separated, droplet morphology with well dispersed PDMS domains into the epoxy matrix was investigated. And the droplet size increased up to ca. 1.8μm at 15% PDMS content.

TL;DR: In this article, a waterborne acrylate/SiO 2 nanocomposites were synthesized by in situ emulsion polymerization using batch process and the results showed that when the concentration of nanosilica was increased, the degree of conversion decreased, and the percent of coagulum slightly increased.

TL;DR: The Raman spectroscopy results clearly indicate that, when P123 is used, the anatase phase of TiO2 is obtained, whereas when Brij 35 is used a mixture of the anat enzyme and brookite phases is obtained.

TL;DR: In this article, a transesterification of used soybean oil with methanol was carried out over hydrated lime (HL), Ca(OH)2, and its decomposition products in the 200-500 °C range.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied mechanisms of interaction of amorphous α-chitin macromolecules with hkl crystal planes to form highly ordered structures, and the role of specific sites in the biopolymer, which can be related to nucleation and spheroidal crystal growth.
