The exploration of equivalent alkane carbon number of molecules
(2020)
This work strives to be a useful compilation of hydrophilic-lipophilic deviation (HLD) information with a focus on explaining the current understanding of Equivalent Alkane Carbon Number (EACN). The industrial interests ...
Effects of Polymer Concentration on the Optimal Salinity of Microemulsions
(2020-05-08)
In this work, multiple water-soluble polymer-surfactant systems were characterized utilizing the hydrophilic lipophilic deviation (HLD) and net average curvature (HLD-NAC) concepts. Water-soluble polymers utilized in this ...
Microstructural study of mucin: influence of pH, temperature, concentration and nanoparticles
(2020-12-18)
The aim of this research is to examine the nano- and micro-structure of mucin in response to chemicophysical changes within the aqueous solution. By characterizing the mucin structure across a range of length scales ...
Hydrogen Peroxide and Water Interaction with Carbon Nitride
(2020-05-07)
This study aims to understand the behavior of a mixture of water and hydrogen peroxide with effects from a carbon nitride catalyst using classical molecular dynamics. Hydrogen peroxide’s wide range of use drives the need ...
Exploring hemolysis due to paravalvular leakage in artificial heart valves
(2020-12-18)
Artificial heart valves require a surgical suture to keep them in place. These sutures can become infected or degrade over time, which can give rise to the phenomenon of paravalvular leakage. The defect compromising flow ...
