In this work, we report the synthesis of hydrophobic MFI zeolites presenting a mesopore size distribution and high specific external area (∼288 m2 g−1), employing surface functionalization with octyltriethoxysilane (OTEOS). ...

We investigate magnetorheological fluids (MRFs) prepared with carbonyl iron powder and different types of hydrophobic and hydrophilic fumed silica. The rheological properties of the MRF suspensions were investigated with ...

Microencapsulation by spray drying of hydrophobic materials, such as pink pepper essential oil (Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi), relies on the efficient stabilization of the oil-in-water emulsion to be dried. Association ...

Lipase from Candida rugosa (CR) was adsorbed onto low-molecular-weight polypropylene powder (PP). Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) techniques, ...

Biocatalysis in non-aqueous media has undergone tremendous development during the last decade, and numerous reactions have been introduced and optimized for synthetic applications. In contrast to aqueous enzymology, ...

This study aimed to evaluate the potential of Brea gum (BG) in the microencapsulation of corn oil in comparison with gum arabic (GA) and evaluate the effect of adding inulin at the matrix formulation. Different concentration ...
