Graphene oxide (GO) is an sp2-bonded single atomic layer of carbon atoms with plenty of oxy-functional groups at its surface. The occurrence of large surface area (~?2630 m2/g), surface functionalities, electronic, and ...

Operators' mental models play a central role in safety-critical domains like the chemical process industries. Accurate mental models, i.e., a correct understanding of the process and its causal linkages, are prerequisites ...

Humidity can affect the bulk behavior of fine hygroscopic powders at multiple levels and fewer mitigation approaches are presently available to counter its adverse effects. This work reports these approaches while investigating ...

Modern chemical plants consist of a number of integrated and interlinked process units. When an abnormal situation occurs, the automation system alerts the operators through alarms. In this work, we introduce a new type ...

BHydrogels, a 3D network structure of polymer chains with significant water content, can be formed of either natural or synthetic polymers; biopolymers are highly preferred for their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and ...

The wetting and dissolution of a BCS class II drug (Ibuprofen) is enhanced by solventless solid dispersion technique using co-milling. The co-milling is performed in a planetary ball mill using 1:1 wt. ratio of Ibuprofen ...

The influence of nano-additives (nano-TiO2 and nano-MgO) on stabilization of β-dicalcium silicate (β-C2S) was investigated and compared with corresponding micron size additives. The effectiveness of phase stabilization ...

In this study, flow and flow-related properties namely morphology, angle of repose, moisture sorption, glass transition and sticky point temperature of basundi mix powder were determined. The bulk and tapped densities ...

The present study documents the drug-excipient incompatibility in the physical mixtures and its influence on bulk homogeneity and flowability for dry powder inhalers (DPI) applications. Binary mixtures with the model drugs ...
