This work focused initially on the size reduction of naproxen sodium to less than 5 µm for inhalation applications. The second objective was the adhesion of naproxen sodium particles to micronized lactose particles with ...

The transport of Explosive Related Compounds (ERCs) has been studied as part of a research program aiming to the development of chemical sensors for detecting landmines. TNT and its degradation products typically make up ...

We studied the flow of ferrofluid induced by rotating magnetic fileds. This flow was observed for first time in fi96F by Moskowitz and Rosensweig [App1. Ph4s. Gett., 10, pag. 3Ofi (fi96F)] and since then researchers has ...

Brownian motion of a colloid suspended in a lyotropic chromonic liquid crystal (LCLC's) leads to the description of the transport properties of the medium through a unification of theories where the confinement effect is ...

The aim of this research work was to study the rheological properties of an industrially relevant gelatin-based pharmaceutical formulation, since the rheology of the product provides information regarding the structure ...

The continuous emissions of greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide (CO2), are generating concerns over the negative effects they are having on the planet. The main goal of this project is to understand the adsorption ...

We studied the synthesis, the characterization and the solvent effect on the catalytic performance of materials with Brønsted or Lewis acidity on the hexose conversion towards value-added molecules such as 5-(hydroxymeth ...

This dissertation sheds some light on the dynamics and rheological properties of compound multiphase drops in the creeping motion limit of the fluid phases from a fundamental standpoint. A compound multiphase drop can ...

Photocatalysis using nanocrystalline materials with enhanced catalytic properties under ultraviolet (UV) or visible light has the potential for becoming one of the leading processes for the abatement of environmental ...

Experiments of biodiesel production via methanolysis were performed at methanol/triglyceride molar ratios of 3, 4.5, and 6 and temperatures of 25 ºC, 40 ºC and 60 ºC; the reaction was monitored by HPLC, X-Ray, and GC-MS ...
