In this study, it was investigated the structural and morphological characteristics of bionanocomposites of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), containing 5% polyethylene glycol (PEG), 1% and 3% two types of organoclays (Cloisite 20A and vermiculite). The systems in the form of films were prepared by the method of intercalation solution. The films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). It was observed that, according to the type of clay used, the systems showed intercalated structures or partially exfoliated ones. Regarding the FTIR results, they indicated that the addition of different clays to the PHB/PEG blend did not promote significant changes in the chemistry of the polymer matrix.

Background: Nanoclays incorporated in dental resins have been previously investigated. However, limited reports are associated with nanoclays that exhibit high functionality. Objective: The aim of this study was the targeted synthesis and characterization of organomodified nanoclays with methacrylic groups suitable for incorporation in dental nanocomposite resins. Methods: Quaternary ammonium methacrylates were synthesized and characterized by means of proton nuclear magnetic resonance and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Consequently, they were inserted into the interlayer space of nanoclay through a cation exchange reaction, while silane was also used for simultaneous surface modification. The produced organomodified nanoclays were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Results: Fourier-transform infrared spectra confirmed the successful synthesis of the quaternary ammonium methacrylates. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that organoclays exhibited higher d001- values (up to 1.78 nm) compared to raw nanoclay (1.37 nm), indicating an accomplished intercalation in each case. X-ray diffraction spectra mainly disclosed the presence of methacrylic functional groups in all nanoclays. Thermogravimetric analysis curves verified the different thermal stability of organoclays due to the diversity of their organic modifiers. Conclusion: The experimental results showed that nanoclay was successfully modified with ammonium methacrylates and silane. Τhe combination of X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis data revealed a high degree of intercalation and methacrylated organic loading as well. These phenomena may favor a good dispersion and high polymerization degree of nanoclays with dental resin monomers, rendering them potentially useful materials for the development of advanced dental nanocomposites resins.

Sebuah penelitian tentang sistem dispersi padat dari asiklovir dengan poloxamer 188 telah dilakukan formulasi dengan pencampuran secara fisika dengan rasio 1 : 1, 1 : 3, 1 : 5 dan dispersi padat 1 : 1, 1 : 3, 1 : 5 dan penggilingan 1:1 sebagai pembanding. Dispersi padat dibuat menggunakan metode pencairan (fusi), yang digabung dengan poloxamer 188 pada hotplate kemudian asiklovir dimasukkan ke dalam hasil poloxamer 188 lalu di kocok hingga membentuk masa homogen. Semua formula yang terbentuk termasuk asiklovir poloxamer 188 murni dianalisis karakterisasinya dengan Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA), X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), dan Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), kemudian pengambilan dilakukan  (penentuan kadar) mengunakan spektrofotometer UV pada panjang gelombang 257,08 nm dan uji laju disolusi dengan aquadest bebas CO2 menggunakan metode dayung. Hasil pengambilan  (penentuan kadar) menunjukkan bahwa semua formula memenuhi persyaratan farmakope Amerika edisi 30 dan farmakope Indonesia edisi 4 yaitu 95-110%. Sedangkan hasil uji laju disolusi untuk campuran fisik 1: 1, dan dispersi padat 1: 1, dan penggilingan 1: 1 menunjukkan peningkatan yang nyata dibandingkan asiklovir murni. Hal ini juga dapat dilihat dari hasil perhitungan statistik  menggunakan analisis varian satu arah  SPSS 17.
