Structural aspects of polyanion and hydrophobically modified polycation multilayers on hydrophilic or hydrophobic surfaces
(ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRYCAMBRIDGE, 2012)
Multilayer films of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), a polyanion, and bromide salts of poly(4-vinylpyridine) quaternized with linear aliphatic chains of 2 (ethyl) and 5 (pentyl) carbon atoms, coded as QPVP-C2 and QPVP-C5, ...
In vitro adhesion of Candida glabrata to denture base acrylic resin modified by glow-discharge plasma treatment
(2013-03-01)
This study evaluated the potential of plasma treatments to modify the surface chemistry and hydrophobicity of a denture base acrylic resin to reduce the Candida glabrata adhesion. Specimens (n=54) with smooth surfaces were ...
Effect of structure and bonding on the interfacial properties and the reactivity of layered double hydroxides and Zn hydroxide salts
(Elsevier Science, 2012-12)
Both layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and Zn layered hydroxide salts (LHSs) are intercalation compounds with potential applications as pollutant sorbents and antimicrobial, drug, and pesticide carriers, among others. Their ...
Electrostatic and Hydrophobic Interactions Involved in CNT Biofunctionalization with Short ss-DNA
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2010)
This work is aimed at studying the adsorption mechanism of short chain 20-mer pyrimidinic homoss-DNA (oligodeoxyribonucleotide, ODN: polyC(20) and polyT(20)) onto CNT by reflectometry. To analyze the experimental data, the ...
Effect of experimental photopolymerized coatings on the hydrophobicity of a denture base acrylic resin and on Candida albicans adhesion
(2013-01-01)
Objective: This study investigated the effect of experimental photopolymerized coatings, containing zwitterionic or hydrophilic monomers, on the hydrophobicity of a denture base acrylic resin and on Candida albicans adhesion. ...

(2013-01-01)
Objective: This study investigated the effect of experimental photopolymerized coatings, containing zwitterionic or hydrophilic monomers, on the hydrophobicity of a denture base acrylic resin and on Candida albicans adhesion. ...
Solubility origin at the nanoscale: enthalpic and entropic contributions in polar and nonpolar environments
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2017)
Nanostructures are known to be poorly soluble, irrespective of their elemental composition, shape, electronic structure, dipole moment, hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity and the employed solvent. The methods of colloid chemistry ...
