  1. 16. Particle-Induced Phase Separation in Aqueous Solutions containing Colloidal Particles and Adsorbing Polymers

    Författare :Martin Olsson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymer technology; biopolymers; Polymerteknik; theoretical calculations; particle-induced phase separation; phase behaviour; surfactant; colloidal particles; adsorbing polymer;

    Sammanfattning : The influence of added colloidal particles on the phase behaviour of a polymer solution was investigated. Binary, quasi-binary and mixed polymer solutions were used in the study, where at least one of the polymers had an affinity for the surfaces of the colloidal particles. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Structure evolution of phase-separated EC/HPC films for controlled drug release

    Författare :Pierre Carmona; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; electron microscopy; coarsening; cellulose; phase separation kinetics; drug delivery; phase separation mechanisms; porous film; biopolymer; controlled drug release; confocal laser scanning microscope; spin-coating.;

    Sammanfattning : Porous phase-separated ethylcellulose/hydroxypropylcellulose (EC/HPC) films are used to control drug transport out of pharmaceutical pellets. The drug transport rate is determined by the structure of the porous films that are formed as the water-soluble HPC leaches out. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Structure and Phase Behavior of Protein Solutions

    Författare :Björn Persson; Beräkningskemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Statistical Mechanics; Simulations; Protein Interactions; Phase Separation; Aggregation; Mutual Amplification;

    Sammanfattning : The complexity of proteins is reflected in the structure of their fluids. This is seen from strongly inhomogeneous distributions about the single protein. Using molecular simulations of protein models, based on experimental structures, the present work probes the directional forces between proteins. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Structure control by phase separation and influence on mass transport in films for controlled release

    Författare :Helene Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Controlled release; Coating; Cellulose derivatives; Hydroxypropyl cellulose; Solvent evaporation; Ethyl cellulose; Phase separation; Polymer blend; Molecular weight;

    Sammanfattning : Controlled release coatings for oral pharmaceutics are often made of cellulose derivatives. Such coatings can be used to promote a prolonged therapeutic concentration in the blood by a slow drug delivery in the gastrointestinal tract. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Structure and Phase Stability of Polyelectrolyte-Macroion Solutions

    Författare :Marie Skepö; Kemiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; hydrophobicity; spatially distributed interaction sites; protein-polymer interaction; Monte Carlo Simulations; redissolution; phase separation; cluster; complex; Polyelectrolytes; macroions;

    Sammanfattning : Polyelectrolytes are polymers bearing ionisable groups, which, in polar solvents, can dissociate into charged polymer chains (polyelectrolytes) and small counterions. In aqueous solutions, polyelectrolytes interact strongly with other macroions and in particular they tend to associate with objects of opposite charge and form complexes. LÄS MER
