Banana starch was modified with B bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate and its instrumental characterization allowed to propose a chemical structure. In the carbon 6 (C6) of the starch the modification reaction was carried out. The morphology of starch changes due to its chemical modification. The modified starch showed a lower crystallinity and therm...

Silk fibroin (SF) is derived from Bombyx mori silkworm cocoons and has been used in textiles and as a suture material for decades. More recently, SF has been used for various new biomedical applications, including as a wound dressing, owing to its excellent biological and mechanical properties. Specifically, the mechanical stiffness, versatility, b...

Flexible sensors play an increasing role in printed electronics and are of interest for optoelectronic applications in flexible robotics and industrial automation. Thus, we have investigated the hybrid inorganic-organic junction between ZnO and PEDOT:PSS (poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate). A thin ITO (indium tin oxide) layer o...

The development of multispectral imaging, holography and lithography techniques exploits the properties of diffracting arrays in a wide variety of photonic components. They are incorporated in laser diodes as distributed Bragg reflectors, in various integrated optical functions for wavelength division multiplexing or optical interconnections, or in...

The mechanically robust nanocoatings with high transmittance and superhydrophobic self-cleaning are widely desired in daily-life and industry. However, to the state-of-art, it is still a great challenge to develop a simple and cost-effective approach to construct a multifunctional nanocoating due to structural confliction and technical limitation. ...

Using biogenically synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by Enterobacter cloacae Ism 26 (KP988024); Polyvinyl Alcohol-Silver (PVA-Ag) and Chitosan-Silver (CS-Ag) nanocomposites were prepared by augmentation. Thermal stability, AgNPs distribution and concentration within nanocomposites were characterized using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), sc...

This work aimed to modify blue crab chitosan-based films through the Maillard reaction (MR) as a novel alternative to improve their functional and biological properties. To this end, different saccharides (glucose (aldohexose), fructose (ketohexose), xylose (aldopentose) and arabinose (aldopentose)), at different weight ratios 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 % (g...
