Nano-sized iron oxides supported on polyester textile to remove fluoroquinolones in hospital wastewater

In this study, we examined the removal kinetics of two fluoroquinolones (FQs), flumequine (FLU) and ciprofloxacin (CIP), in synthetic wastewater (SWW) and real hospital wastewater (RHW) using FeOx thin films, peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and visible light. Nano ...

Experimental research on Textile Reinforced Concrete for the development of design tools

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Patrick Lorenzo Valeri

Due to the limited construction experiences as well as to the absence of clear and consolidated design provisions for design of Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC), the application of this material in practice is still very limited. In this paper, the result ...

Water retention behaviour and microstructural evolution of MX-80 granular bentonite during wetting and drying cycles

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Ali Seiphoori

MX-80 bentonite used in engineered barrier systems would be subjected to wetting and drying cycles. To assess the response of the material under such circumstances, a comprehensive experimental characterisation of the water retention behaviour of compacted ...

Ag-surfaces sputtered by DC and pulsed DC-magnetron sputtering effective in bacterial inactivation: Testing and characterization

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Rosendo Sanjines, Cristina del Socorro Lonfat

This study addresses the deposition of active, uniform nanoparticulate Ag-thin films on polyester textiles by DC-magnetron sputtering (DC) and pulsed DC-magnetron sputtering (DCP). The deposition of Ag on the polyester fiber was observed to be the function ...

Preparation, testing and performance of a TiO2/polyester photocatalyst for the degradation of gaseous methanol

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi

TiO2 modified polyester photocatalysts were prepared by immersion. drying and curing of the polyester in TiO2 containing suspensions under different experimental conditions. The structure of TiO2 layers on the polyester varied according to the time of imme ...

Rapid processing of net-shape thermoplastic planar random composite preforms

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Patrick Blanchard, Véronique Michaud, Simon Jespersen, Daniel Schmäh

A novel thermoplastic composite preforming and moulding process is investigated to target cost issues in textile composite processing associated with trim waste, and the limited mechanical properties of current bulk flow- moulding composites. The thermopla ...

Optimization of hybrid thermoplastic composite structures using surrogate models and genetic algorithms

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Martyn Douglas Wakeman

Using an integrated processing methodology, an injection or compression moulded thermoplastic structure can be locally reinforced, for example, with textile structures or uni-directional fibre tows. Netshape components can be produced with cycle times typi ...

Reaction-Induced Phase Separation in Poly(vinyl acetate)/ Polyester Blend

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Véronique Michaud, Xavier Bulliard

In blends of unsaturated polyester (UP), poly (vinyl acetate) (PVAc), and styrene, a reaction-induced phase separation occurs upon curing that is due to the crosslinking between styrene and the UP molecules. The evolution of the morphology was observed by ...

Phase separation at the fiber-matrix interface in composites based on a thermoplastic/polyester blend

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Véronique Michaud, Xavier Bulliard

A study of the microstructure developing at the surface of glass fibers in a poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc)/polyester blend is presented. Three different experimental methods are used: a technique based on the Wilhelmy method to measure the wettability of the ...
