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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Development and design of nanomaterial reagents in conjunction with new methods for their synthetic applications
(2014-07)
This Ph.D. deals with the integration of nanotechnology with organometallic/ organic synthetic technologies. The first part of this research sought to develop a library of novel molecular gears programmed to exploit ...
Modular synthesis of amphiphilic networks with guest-host capabilities
(2015-05)
Herein is described a controlled modular method for nanoscopic polymer network synthesis. Nodal points, such as cyclodextrins, are well defined, as are the cross-linking tie chains (e.g. polyethylene oxide), which are of ...
