Temperature effect on drying and swelling of kappa carrageenan gels: A steady state fluorescence study
(Wiley-V C H Verlag GMBH, 2008)
A novel technique based on in situ steady state fluorescence (SSF) measurements is introduced for studying drying and swelling Of kappa(-) carrageenan (kappa carrageenan) gels at various temperatures. kappa(-) carrageenan ...
In situ fluorescence study of swelling, sorption and desorption processes in and out of PAAm gels
(Wiley-V C H Verlag GMBH, 2008-05)
Small molecule sorption and desorption in and out of polyacrylamide (PAAm) gels were studied at various temperatures. Pyranine (P(y)) dissolved in water used as a probe. Fluorescence emission intensity, I(p) from P(y) was ...
Determination of pre-gelation and post-gelation activation energies during free radical crosslinking copolymerization
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2005)
Steady-state fluorescence (SSF) and dilatoraetric techniques were used to study the free-radical crosslinking copolymerization (FCC) of styrene (S) and divinylbenzene (DVB) in bulk. The gel points (t g) were recorded by ...
Dissolution of Al2O3-polystyrene latex composites: A fluorescence study
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2005)
This work reports the use of the steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique to study dissolution of a composite film formed from a mixture of Al 2O3 and polystyrene (PS) latex particles. The composite films were cast from ...
Reversible film formation from PS doped PNIPAM particles in various compositions
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2008-02)
Film formation from polystyrene (PS) doped poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) particles was studied using photon transmission technique. The transmitted light intensity, Itr, was monitored during film formation process. ...
Critical behavior of thermal phase transitions of iota-carrageenan in CaCl2 solution
(Elsevier B.V., 2006-07-15)
In situ photon transmission method was applied to study thermal phase transitions of ?-carrageenan in CaCl2 solution. Coil-to-helix (c-h) and helix-to-dimer (h-d) transitions were detected upon cooling. An extra dimer-to-dimer ...
Universal behaviour of gel formation from acrylamide-carrageenan mixture around the gel point: A fluorescence study
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2006-08)
The steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique was used to study the sol-gel transition, for the solution free radical crosslinking copolymerization of acrylamide (AAm) with various carrageenan content. N, N'- methylenebis ...
Reversible film formation from nano-sized PNIPAM particles below glass transition
(Springer-Verlag, 2007-01)
Reversible film formation process from nano-sized Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) microgel particles were studied during heating-cooling cycles at various rates. Photon transmission technique was used and transmitted ...
Molecular alignment during gel formation from methyl methacrylate: An excimer fluorescence study
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2005-05)
Glass transition during bulk polymerization was studied in free-radical cross-linking copolymerization (FCC) of methyl methacrylate (MMA) using the steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique. Naphthalene (N) was used as a ...
Small molecule sorption and desorption in and out of iota-carrageenan gels
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2007-08)
Small molecule sorption and desorption in and out of Iota-Carrageenan was studied by using steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique. Pyranine dissolved in water used as fluorescence probe. Fluorescence emission intensity, ...
