Modification Of The Surface

This work presents an ecofriendly method for dyeing synthetic fabrics with natural dyes using UV/ozone pretreatment to activate fiber and improve dyeability of polyester and nylon. Fabrics are pretreated with UV/ozone for different periods of time ranged from 5 min to 120 min. Effect of pretreatment on surface morphology was studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Mechanical behavior was studied by testing tensile strength and elongation percentage. Chemical modification of the surface was studied using attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (ATR-FTIR). Dyeability of the treated samples was investigated in terms of their colour strength expressed as K/s in addition to fastness to washing and light. This research showed the increment of the affinity of the studied synthetic fabrics towards curcumin and saffron natural dyes using ecofriendly technique.

This study developed a method to produce uniform captan surface films on a disposable nitrile glove for quantitation with a portable attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectrometer. A permeation test was performed using aqueous captan formulation. Uniform captan surface films were produced using solvent casting with 2-propanol and a 25 mm filter holder connected to a vacuum manifold to control solvent evaporation. The coefficient of variation of the reflectance at 1735 ± 5 cm−1 was minimized by selection of the optimum solvent volume, airflow rate, and evaporation time. At room temperature, the lower to upper quantifiable limits were 0.31–20.7 μg/cm2 ( r = 0.9967; p ≤ 0.05) for the outer glove surface and 0.55–17.5 μg/cm2 ( r = 0.9409; p ≤ 0.05) for the inner surface. Relative humidity and temperature did not affect the uncoated gloves at the wavelength of captan analysis. Glove screening using ATR-FTIR was necessary as a control for between-glove variation. Captan permeation, after 8 hours exposure to an aqueous concentration of 217 mg/mL of Captan 50-WP, was detected at 0.8 ± 0.3 μg/cm2 on the inner glove surface. ATR-FTIR can detect captan permeation and can determine the protectiveness of this glove in the field.

Abstract Only black inkjet prints were studied with regard to forensic examination of documents. We analysed twenty-one inkjet prints using surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS). The present paper deals with micro-destructive document analysis based on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) use to obtain surface enhanced ATR-FTIR (attenuated total reflection - Fourier transform infrared) spectra directly from the document. For this experiment, AgNPs in colloid form was applied. AgNPs for SEIRAS analyses were synthesised and afterwards analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The purpose of the enhancement of colloids was to improve the resolution of the absorption signal of the analysed samples from noise. In the experiment, the obtained ink ATR-FTIR spectra, with and without silver treatment, were significantly affected by the paper base.

The electrospinning of fluorescent probe polyamide 6 doped by 7H-benzimidazo[2,1-a]benzo[de]isoquinolin-7-on is presented as a model processing photoluminescent nanofibers. The presence of the fluorescent probe in the fiber layers was confirmed by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR); the surface nanofiber structure was described by high-resolution fluorescence microscope and scanning electron microscope images. The prepared nanofibers with the fluorescent label were further characterized by fluorescence spectroscopy, both in the solid phase and in the solution.

Cerebral polymer coating embolism from intravascular devices represents a potentially serious complication to endovascular therapy (EVT). We report two cases of neuroendovascular treatment where filamentous polymer fragments were noted possibly due to damage of the surface coating during manipulation and backloading of microguidewires. As the exact origin of the debris was initially not known, microguidewires and fragments were examined with light microscopy, stereomicroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and attenuated-total-reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Fragments consisted of polytetrafluoroethylene and silicone oil stemming from the proximal shaft of a standard microguidewire. To our knowledge, this is the first report of polytetrafluoroethylene coating fragments created during EVT. Future studies should assess the mechanism of polymer coating delamination and its potential consequences during EVT including inadvertent fragment migration into the cerebral circulation.

Pengamatan fenomena surface plasmon resonance (SPR) telah berhasil dilakukan pada ZnO nanorods yang ditumbuhkan di atas lapisan tipis emas. Sistem SPR menggunakan konfigurasi Kretschmann termodifikasi dimana permukaan prisma dideposisi dengan lapisan tipis emas dan ZnO nanorods (prisma/Au/ZnO). Penumbuhan ZnO nanorods menggunakan metode hidrotermal dengan dua tahapan, yaitu pelapisan ZnO seed dan penumbuhan rods. Waktu penumbuhan divariasikan selama 5 menit, 2 jam, dan 4 jam, pada suhu 95 °C yang diikuti dengan annealing pada suhu 500 °C selama 1 jam. Struktur ZnO dikarakterisasi dengan X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope - energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (FESEM-EDS), serta diamati fenomena SPR melalui grafik attenuated total reflection (ATR). Hasil karakterisasi menunjukkan bahwa ZnO nanorods (2 jam dan 4 jam) memiliki struktur kristal heksagonal dengan distribusi ukuran diameter pada rentang 20 nm – 60 nm. Fenomena SPR hanya teramati pada nanopartikel ZnO (5 menit) pada sudut SPR (θSPR) 58,2°. Fenomena SPR tidak terlihat pada ZnO nanorods (2 jam dan 4 jam) dikarenakan panjang rods melebihi 100 nm.

ABSTRACTFacile and direct synthesis of radiative VO2 (M) plate-like is reported. The snowflake material presents superstructures plate-like aggregate with an anisotropic orientation in shape governed by V2O5 and NaOH concentration giving high surface energy liable for chemical reactions with the medium. Pure crystalline VO2 (M) has been obtained with a complete hydrothermolysis of the precursor. The morphological, structural, elemental composition, crystallinity and vibrational bands of the powders were characterized by Powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED) and Fourier Transform-Attenuated Total Reflection (FTIR-ATR) infrared spectroscopy.

Cryogels are novel materials because the manufacturing process known as cryostructuring allows biopolymers to change their properties as a result of repeated controlled freeze–thaw cycles. Hydrogels of xanthan and karaya gums were evaluated after undergoing up to four controlled freeze–thaw cycles in indirect contact with liquid nitrogen (up to −150 °C) to form cryogels. Changes in structural, molecular, rheological, and thermal properties were evaluated and compared to those of their respective hydrogels. Samples were also analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy with Attenuated Total Reflection (FTIR-ATR), Rotational Rheology (RR), Modulated Differential Scanning Calorimetry (MDSC) and zeta potential (ζ). In general, significant differences (p < 0.05) between the numbers of freeze–thaw cycles were found. Karaya cryogels were not stable to repeated cycles of cryostructuring such as the three-cycle xanthan cryogel, which has the best structural order (95.55%), molecular interactions, and thermal stability, which allows the generation of a novel material with improved thermal and structural properties that can be used as an alternative in food preservation.

AbstractThis work presents a comprehensive, multi-analytical scientific approach for determining the type of lacquer and artistic materials used by Jean Dunand on his work “The Return of the Hunters” (1935). For this purpose, thermally assisted hydrolysis and methylation – gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (THM-GC/MS), optical microscopy (OM) in visible (Vis) and ultraviolet light (UV), and scanning electron microscopy - energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) were selected. Furthermore, a novel application of micro attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (µATR-FTIR) spectroscopic mapping by univariate and multivariate analysis was applied for studying the complex lacquer paint stratigraphy. The results show that Vietnamese lacquer was used as a binder, mixed together with linseed oil and pine resins as additives in combination with inorganic pigments, and that shellac was included on the top of the paint; they document an important step in the story of the transfer of Vietnamese lacquer painting techniques to Europe.
