Ensenyar aprenent. Aprendre ensenyant. Creativitat en Expressió Gràfica per a Enginyers Químics
2014
Seguiment i anàlisi de la construcció, posada en pràctica i valoració qualitativa i quantitativa, d'un Finestra Oberta de la Universitat de València, projecte pilot per al foment i avaluació de la creativitat i l'aprenentatge autònom, entre un grup d'estudiants de primer cicle d'Enginyeria Química, en l'assignatura Disseny Industrial de l'àrea d'Expressió Gràfica.
Aprenentatge basat en projectes: aproximació a l'ensenyament de sistemes de potència de gas i vapor
2014
L’objectiu d’aquest treball és presentar l’experiència i els resultats derivats de l’aplicació del mètode d’aprenentatge basat en projectes (PBL) de l’assignatura de Termotècnia de la titulació d’Enginyeria Química de la Universitat del País Basc/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea. Després d’un anàlisi crític dels resultats acadèmics dels alumnes que aprenen motors tèrmics, s’observa que l’estratègia d’ensenyament-aprenentatge tradicional, basat en classes magistrals + classes d’aplicació en una llista d’exercicis (totalment acotats i amb una solució única), està fallant. Davant d’aquesta situació, es planteja un enfoc constructivista centrat en l’alumne perquè ell mateix construeixi el seu apre…
Ús del programa Berkeley Madonna per al desenvolupament de models en la docència en Enginyeria Química
2014
La modelització és un procediment metodològic fonamental per a resoldre problemes en enginyeria. Consisteix en representar el problema d'una forma adequada, de manera que s'aconsegueixi una substitució del sistema real per altre més adequat que permeti el tractament formal. És per això que el seu aprenentatge és molt important en l'estudi de l'Enginyeria Química i s'emmarca en les competències contingudes en el mòdul de tecnologia específica, Química Industrial (Ordre CIN/351/2009). En el present treball, es proposa l'ús del programa informàtic Berkeley Madonna per a l'estudi de la modelització del creixement bacterià sobre un o diversos substrats en l'assignatura Processos Biotecnològics d…

Nanoincorporation of curcumin in polymer-glycerosomes and evaluation of their in vitro–in vivo suitability as pulmonary delivery systems
2015
The aim of this work was to deliver curcumin into the lungs by incorporating it into innovative vesicles obtained using phospholipids and high concentrations of glycerol (50%, v/v), so called glycerosomes, which were then combined with two polymers: sodium hyaluronate and trimethyl chitosan to form polymer-glycerosomes. These systems were prepared without the use of organic solvents or acidic solutions and their physico-chemical properties were fully characterized. Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy and small-angle X-ray scattering showed that both glycerosomes and polymer-glycerosomes were spherical, mainly unilamellar and of nanometric size (65–112 nm). The vesicles were readily n…

Utilization of impedance spectroscopy to investigate the self-assembly behavior of amphiphiles soluble in supercritical carbon dioxide: Preliminary r…
2007
Abstract A mixture of CO 2 , water, methyl orange (MO) and Dynol 604 surfactant was analyzed at 309 K and 20 MPa simultaneously by impedance and UV–vis spectroscopy. A plot of the static dielectric constant as a function of the surfactant concentration was obtained using a suitable equivalent circuit to elaborate impedance data. Experimental points can be fitted by two different straight lines whose intersection occurs at about 0.13% (w/w) concentration of Dynol. When the surfactant concentration crossed the aforementioned value, a peak was detectable in the UV–vis spectrum at a wavelength range corresponding to the absorption of MO; absorbance of the peak increased with the surfactant conc…
Residual water and electrical properties of polyaniline
1994
Summary form only given. The work aims to study the mechanism of interaction between water molecules and polyaniline (PANI) backbone as an important constituent of acid-base transformations ensuring good conductive properties of PANI. Experiments have been made using chemically synthesized emeraldine base subjected to different chemical treatments and aging procedures. Thermogravimetric measurement have shown that water content in polymeric matrices may amount up to 20-25 wt.% with two distinguished reversible absorbance states of water molecules. Weakly bond water (3-5 kcal/mol) is incorporated into PANI from ambient atmosphere and could be eliminated by drying at room temperature in vacuu…
Impact of hydroxy and octyloxy substituents of phenothiazine based dyes on the photovoltaic performance
2013
Two novel organic dyes containing hydroxy and octyloxy substituents onto a phenothiazine skeleton were synthesized and their effects on the photovoltaic performance were studied. Hydroxy acts as an ancillary anchoring unit along with the carboxylic group, while the phenothiazine modified moiety acts as an electron donor. The photophysical and electrochemical studies revealed that maximum absorbance of the dye with the hydroxy group in the solution was blue shifted and its band gap increased, indicating that donor acceptor strength was reduced as compared to the octyloxy substituted dye. Furthermore, electron lifetime of the organic dye with the hydroxy moiety was shorter due to smaller resi…
Polypyrrole films functionalized with pendant titanocene dichloride complexes: Ellipsometric study of the electropolymerization process
2007
Electrochemical and ellipsometric methods have been used to study the electropolymerization process of a functionalized monomer, Tc3Py (in which pyrrole is covalently bonded with titanocene dichloride complex) on platinum electrode from a dilute monomer solution in acetonitrile. The deposition has been performed in the potentiodynamic regime. A new method for the acquisition and treatment of ellipsometric data has been proposed which allowed us to analyze the evolution of the film properties at each potential. The model of a single uniform layer was unable to describe the ellipsometric experimental observations with the necessary precision. A proper fitting of the data has been achieved con…
