Validation and application of the Purdie assay in the analyses of the major polyunsaturated fatty acids
(2012-07)
Scope and Method of Study:
Polymer adsorption on silica and wettability of graphene oxide surfaces, experiments and simulations
(2016-05)
Among the various classifications of polymer composites, studying polymers adsorbed to a surface such as silica is important due to their numerous applications. Adsorbed polymers usually show different properties than their ...
Determination of filming and alkalizing amines using LC-MS and the influence of these amines on ion exchange resin properties
(2017-07)
In steam turbine power plants, filming amines are injected into the steam header to coat and protect pipe surfaces against corrosion. Alkalizing amines are added to the boiler feed water to control pH of the condensate in ...
Development of superhydrophobicity in silane treated diatomaceous earth and polymer coatings
(2016-12)
This dissertation describes the development of superhydrophobicity in fluorosilane treated diatomaceous earth (DE) particles and polymer coatings. The amount of silane coupling agent on the surface of DE particles has been ...
Design, synthesis and characterization of organic semiconductors: From eumelanin-inspired organic materials to novel electron acceptors
(2018-07)
Eumelanin, the black-brown variety of natural pigment melanin, is a fascinating material owing to its multifunctional physicochemical properties, such as broad-band absorption spectrum, antioxidant and free radical scavenging ...
Silica- and organic polymer-based monolithic stationary phases for modern liquid phase separations
(2008-12)
Scope and Method of Study: The aim of the study was, firstly, to introduce novel polar silica-based and acrylate-based monolithic columns for normal phase chromatography (NPC) and electrochromatography of biomolecules and ...
Reactive azolyl intermediates: Generation via photocatalysis and synthetic utility
(2017-12)
We have conducted a systematic study of photocatalyst-mediated electron transfer from amines to 2-haloazoles with a particular interest in the nature, reactivity, and utility of the intermediates that can be generated. ...
