Four oil absorbents based on styrene butadiene (SBR), i.e., pure SBR (PS), 4. tert-butylstyrene-SBR (PBS), EPDM-SBR network (PES) and 4.tert-butylstyrene-EPDMSBR (PBES), were produced from crosslinking polymerization ...Four oil absorbents based on styrene butadiene (SBR), i.e., pure SBR (PS), 4. tert-butylstyrene-SBR (PBS), EPDM-SBR network (PES) and 4.tert-butylstyrene-EPDMSBR (PBES), were produced from crosslinking polymerization of uncured styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), 4-tert-butylstyrene (tBS) and ethylene-propylenc-diene terpolymer (EPDM). The reaction took place in toluene using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as an initiator. Uncured SBR was used as both a pre-polymer and a crosslink agent in this work, and the crosslinked polymer was identified by IR spectroscopy. The oil absorbency of the crosslinked polymer was evaluated with the method ASTM (F726-81). The order of maximum oil absorbency was PBES>PBS>PES>PS. The maximum values of oil absorbency of PBES and PBS were 74.0g/g and 69.5g/g, respectively. Gel fractions and swelling kinetic constants, however, had the opposite sequences. The swelling kinetic constant of PS evaluated by an experimental equation was 49. 97×10^(-2)h^(-1).展开更多

In naphthenic oil which is a good solvent for the butadiene blocks, but a non-solvent for the styrene blocks and PPE, PPE was selectively included into styrene blocks in SBS, and induced the increase of the Tg of these blocks. The melting temperature determined by viscoelastic measurements and softening temperature of the gels were elevated by adding PPE, while no significant change was detected by adding polystyrene. The gel became opaque by adding PPE, and partially separated phases were observed by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The dependence of the viscoelastic behavior on the PPE concentration can be explained by the structural change observed by FE-SEM.展开更多

In the present study, the influence of clove oil(CO) on the characteristics of doxycycline hyclate(DH)-loaded ISG comprising Eudragit RS(ERS) was investigated including viscosity/rheology, syringeability, in vitro gel formation/drug release, matrix formation/solvent diffusion and antimicrobial activities. CO could dissolve ERS and increase the viscosity of ISG and its hydrophobicity could also retard the diffusion of solvent and hinder the drug diffusion; thus, the minimization of burst effect and sustained drug release were achieved effectively. All the prepared ISGs comprising CO could expel through the 27-gauge needle for administration by injection and transform into matrix depot after exposure to the simulated gingival crevicular fluid. The antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Streptococcus mutans and Porphyromonas gingivalis were increased when the ratio of CO and N-methyl pyrrolidone(NMP) was decreased from 1:1 to 1:10 owing to higher diffusion of DH except that for C. albicans was increased as CO amount was higher.Therefore, CO could minimize the burst while prolonging the drug release of DH-loaded ERS ISG for use as a local drug delivery system for periodontitis treatment.展开更多

Some absorption bands of Olive oil are disappearing from absorption spectrum of doped silica. Only single strong fluorescence peak was appearing in fluorescence spectrum of pure Olive oil at wavelength around 678 nm which attributed to chlorophylls, while fluorescence spectrum to doped sample shows two strong fluorescence peaks at the wavelength 681 nm and 585 nm which attributed to chlorophylls and Vitamin E respectively. The doping process enhances fluorescence activity of Olive oil through enhancing intensity of the fluorescence peak corresponding to Vitamin E. Absorption and fluorescence spectrums to doped silica sample give a good indication in direction of using Sol-Gel technique to prepare?for Olive oil doped SiO2 as an optical active material.展开更多
