Enhancement of 3D Printability by FDM and Electrical Conductivity of PLA/MWCNT Filaments Using Lignin as Bio-Dispersant
(MDPI, 2023-02-17)
[Abstract] To increase the applications of FDM (fusion deposition modeling) 3D printing in electronics, it is necessary to develop new filaments with good electrical properties and suitable processability. In this work, ...
Preparation of Poly(vinyl Alcohol) Microparticles for Freeze Protection of Sensitive Fruit Crops
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract] Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) displays ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) properties as many antifreeze proteins found in cold tolerant organisms. The molecular architecture and composition (molecular weight and ...
Y6 Organic Thin-Film Transistors with Electron Mobilities of 2.4 cm² V⁻¹ s⁻¹ via Microstructural Tuning
(2022-01-05)
[Abstract] There is a growing demand to attain organic materials with high electron mobility, μe, as current reliable reported values are significantly lower than those exhibited by their hole mobility counterparts. Here, ...
Preparation and Characterization of Bionanocomposite Films Based on Wheat Starch and Reinforced With Cellulose Nanocrystals
(Springer Nature, 2021)
[Abstract] In recent times, the attention of scientific community has been focusing on the replacement of petroleum-based polymers by others more environmentally friendly. In this sense, bionanocomposites based on ...
Influence of the Hydrophilicity of Montmorillonite on Structure and Properties of Thermoplastic Wheat Starch/Montmorillonite Bionanocomposites
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2021-11)
[Abstract] The increasing environmental pollution with petroleum-based plastics has advanced research on biodegradable polymers. Thermoplastic starch (TPS) is one promising candidate due to wide availability from various ...
Influence of Backbone Curvature on the Organic Electrochemical Transistor Performance of Glycolated Donor–Acceptor Conjugated Polymers
(Wiley-VCH, 2021-09)
[Abstract] Two new glycolated semiconducting polymers PgBT(F)2gT and PgBT(F)2gTT of differing backbone curvatures were designed and synthesised for application as p-type accumulation mode organic electrochemical transistor ...
Improvement of Endothelial Function by Gunnera Tinctoria Extract With Antioxidant Properties
(Springer Nature, 2020)
[Abstract] Background: Gunnera tinctoria has been collected by Mapuche-Pewenche people for food and medicinal purposes. The high polyphenol content of methanolic extract from G. tinctoria leaves with chemical constituents ...
Service-Learning Projects in University Degrees Based on Sustainable Development Goals: Proposals and Results
(MDPI AG, 2020-09-25)
[Abstract]
We present several Service-Learning projects developed considering Sustainable Development Goals to provide the students skills for the support of a sustainable society. This project begins with collecting ...
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of the Extrusion and Deposition Process of a Poly(lactic Acid) Strand with Fused Deposition Modeling
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] In the last decade, Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) has gained popularity for allowing the fabrication of pieces with complex shapes. The final quality of the pieces is strongly linked to the shape, size and ...
Physical Aging Behavior of a Glassy Polyether
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract] The present work aims to provide insights on recent findings indicating the presence of multiple equilibration mechanisms in physical aging of glasses. To this aim, we have investigated a glass forming polyether, ...
