Cellulose was dissolved with the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [EMIM]Cl at temperatures of 110, 120, and 130 °C. The dissolution process was evaluated by polarized light microscopy which demonstrated that at lower temperatures (110 °C and 120 °C), the dissolution is preceded by swelling, whereas at 130 °C, rapid fragmentation of the fibers occurs. The presence of dye in cotton fiber extended the dissolution time. After dissolution at 110 °C and regeneration in a water bath, the films obtained were smooth and homogeneous and preserved the color of the residue. Characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicated a transition from crystalline type I cellulose in the cotton samples to an amorphous structure in the regenerated films. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed that films showed lower thermal stability than cotton fibers, attributed to cellulose depolymerization. The cotton source did not significantly affect the mechanical properties of the films, which had tensile strength ranging from 25.8 to 33.4 MPa and elongation at break between 14.7 and 19.7%.

The investigation examines the impact of various experimental parameters, including reaction temperature, reaction duration, iron-germanium mass ratio, and the final pH of the reaction, on the rate of germanium precipitation. The findings suggest that optimal precipitation conditions are attained at a reaction temperature of 60 °C, a precipitation duration of 120 min, an iron-germanium mass ratio of 40:1, and a pH of 5.5 at the reaction endpoint. Under these conditions, the precipitation efficiency can achieve 99.42%. Kinetics and adsorption equilibrium were analyzed, revealing that the germanium precipitation reaction adhered to the pseudo-second-order model for kinetics and the Freundlich adsorption isothermal model for adsorption equilibrium. Based on theoretical analysis and detection of precipitate, the precipitation reactions can be divided into three parts: (1) GeO₂ reacts with water to form small amounts of germanic acid, which then hydrolyzes to form colloidal precipitates; (2) colloidal ferric hydroxide, adsorbing germanium, precipitates spontaneously; (3) due to the addition of NaOH to adjust pH both at the outset and during the experiment, a portion of the solution will have a high pH region for a certain period of time, leading to the presence of germanium in the forms of HGeO₃⁻ and GeO₃²⁻ within these localized areas.

Addition of nanoparticles to the emulsion systems is able to improve the stability of emulsions by several mechanisms. In this paper, two kinds of SiO₂ nanoparticle stabilized emulsions, i.e., the electrostatic repulsion stabilized emulsions (ERS) and the Pickering emulsions, are investigated to clear their potential for enhancing oil recovery. The ERS emulsions are prepared by adding SiO₂ nanoparticle to a SDS stabilized emulsion. It is found that the critical surfactant concentration for forming emulsions is reduced from 0.06 to 0.006%, and the ERS emulsions are stable at salinity lower than 1% NaCl with no oil phase releasing. The cryo-SEM experiments show that the nanoparticles mainly disperse in the aqueous phase and prevent the droplets from coalescence by electrostatic repulsion. On the other hand, Pickering emulsions are prepared using nonionic surfactant modified SiO₂ nanoparticles. By adjusting a surfactant-to-nanoparticles ratio (such as 0.1%:1.0%), the hydrophilic-lipophilic equilibrium is obtained. Laser confocal and cryo-scanning electron microscopy results indicated that SiO₂ nanoparticles in Pickering emulsions are dispersed at the oil–water interface, forming a network structure between the emulsion droplets. Further experiments indicates that the ERS emulsions are effective at salinity lower than 1% NaCl, and the Pickering emulsions adapt to salinity lower than 4% NaCl. In the visual 2-D oil displacement experiments, the ERS emulsion and the Pickering emulsion contribute to 8% and 15% oil recovery, respectively, since the droplets of the Pickering emulsions may aggregate and plug large pores.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"302 12","pages":"1985 - 1998"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142679725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different from the previous efforts, this experimental work is the first initiative to comprehend the low and high-speed mechanical performance of two different thermoplastic materials depending on the shifting test temperatures in a comparative manner. For polylactic acid (PLA) and polyamide 6 (PA6), the combined effect of the infill rate and high-speed drop weight deformation was analyzed for the first time in the technical literature. For this purpose, low-speed tensile tests, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) analyses, drop-weight impact tests, and damage inspections were made elaboratively. The results showed that PLA samples had superior mechanical responses at 25 °C, but the case was the opposite and in favor of PA6 above the glass transition. Specific absorbed energy values increased with decreasing infill rates both for PLA and PA6. Furthermore, PA6 samples remained united after the drop-weight deformation at higher temperatures, while PLA lost its integrity.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"302 12","pages":"1967 - 1984"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142260078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application of biodegradable mulch is one of the potential ways to solve this problem.

In this study, thermoplastic starch (TPS), TPS/talc, and talc-filled PBAT mulch were prepared. A 28-day hydrothermal aging test was conducted, and the mechanical properties, light transmission, water vapor barrier properties, hydrophobic performance, viscosity-average molecular weight, and characterization of the PBAT mulch were detected. The results showed that the original TPS-filled PBAT mulch had excellent mechanical properties, and its tensile strength and elongation at break reached 29.67 MPa and 1166.52%, respectively. The mechanical properties of the PBAT mulch were greatly reduced after hydrothermal aging. Hydrothermal aging would reduce the light transmittance of PBAT mulch to visible light, while the hydrolysis of starch would cause the opposite result. The hydroxyl group in TPS would reduce the water vapor barrier performance of the PBAT mulch. After hydrothermal aging, the viscosity-average molecular weight of the PBAT mulch decreases and the surface of the PBAT mulch was destroyed, which meant that the PBAT mulch was hydrolyzed. FTIR showed that hydrothermal aging could cause the fracture of ester groups. The TG spectral curve showed that the proportion of TPS in PBAT mulch decreased after hydrothermal aging, which meant that TPS was more easily hydrolyzed than PBAT.

It is widely used in various industrial applications due to its ability to efficiently produce functional parts with complex geometrical features. Estimating the mechanical properties and dimensional accuracy is essential for the functional testing of objects fabricated using the FFF process. Several process variables influence the mechanical qualities and dimensional accuracy of objects manufactured using FFF technology. Selecting the optimal set of parameters is crucial for achieving the desired properties in the final parts. This research investigated the influence of four crucial process variables, layer thickness, extrusion temperature, printing speed, and extrusion width, on the impact resistance and shear strength of polycarbonate parts printed using the fused filament fabrication (FFF) technique. A hybrid modelling approach involving dimensional analysis (DA)–based mathematical modelling and regression-based machine learning (ML) modelling was adopted to predict the two output responses and determine the correlation between the process parameters and mechanical properties. A comparison based on various error metrics and the performance of the models suggested that ML models have higher prediction performance and accuracy than DA models. The developed prediction models exhibited significant agreement with the observed values and may be used to forecast the mechanical characteristics of FFF components while manipulating the input parameters. The findings revealed that a maximum impact strength of 66.37 J/m and shear strength of 50.43 MPa were obtained when the layer height, extrusion temperature, printing speed, and extrusion width were 320 µm, 280 °C, 20 mm/s, and 0.56 mm, respectively.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"302 12","pages":"1891 - 1909"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142180965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
