Inhibitors yesterday, today, tomorrow

In the recent past it was taken into account that the level of protection of metal should be as high as possible, and very little about how these, usually very toxic, substances act on the environment and human health. With the development of industry and increase in industrial production at the global level it has become a very serious environmental and health problem. In the last ten years, as well as in nowadays, many researchers in the world are working on finding and using new substances which have good protective properties that they do not pollute the environment and that are not harmful to human health, i.e. so called "green inhibitors". According to needs we have, in our research, explored the possibility of use of vitamins B, C and sage extracts. The inhibitory effect of vitamins and sage extract on the corrosion process of technical copper and steel samples was studied.

Original routes towards PHEMA-based materials with bimodal porosity

For many biomedical applications, the control of morphological structure, total porosity, and pore size distribution of PHEMA-based materials is of paramount significance. Larger macropores, in the order of magnitude of a few tens of micrometers, may be achieved by the use of emulsion templating, such as high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs). With this approach, an emulsion with a high share of droplet phase (tipically over 75 vol %) and monomers in the continuous phase, can be prepared. Such emulsions are stabilized by surfactants and result after curing in highly porous polymers (polyHIPEs) with open cellular porous morphology.

Synthesis of [beta]-In[spodaj]2S[spodaj]3 nanoparticles via sonochemical method using diverse indium precursors

ß-In2S3 nanoparticles were prepared via sonochemical route, using diverse indium precursors. A direct immersion ultrasonic probe and a conventional ultrasonic cleaning bath were used as ultrasound source. It was found that indium(III) nitrate hydrate as indium precursor and ultrasonic probe as ultrasound source give the more promising results.
