THE DEPOSIZIONE PAINTING FROM S. CATERINA MONASTERY IN PALERMO, ITALY: A TECHNICAL STUDY ON A ‘TRASPARENTE’ PAINTING

2022

The article analyzes the Deposizione painting of Giovanni Patricolo from S. Caterina monastery in Palermo, a painting realized by a particular technique of artistic representation attested in the 19th century: the ‘trasparente’ paintings, a specific kind of ephemeral apparatuses. The focus of this study is to shed light on the practical functions and the chronological path of this work of art, connecting it with the specific executive technique of the manufact. Furthermore, this research was a preliminary study aimed at designing an appropriate intervention for the restoration and conservation of the painting and a proper valorization of this artwork.

Poly lactic acid based foams prepared via thermally induced phase separation (TIPS): A method to tune the crystallinity

2012

Blends of Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) with two Poly-Lactic Acid (PLA) in different proportions (90/10 and 70/30) were utilized in order to produce biodegradable and biocompatible scaffolds for soft tissue engineering applications. The scaffolds were produced via thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) starting from ternary systems where dioxane was the solvent and water the non-solvent. Morphology was evaluated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (average pore size and interconnection). Moreover a DSC analysis was carried out on the as-obtained scaffold in order to obtain information about theirs thermal properties (enthalpy of melt and crystallization). The results showed that is possible to p…

A study via simulation of solidification during injection molding

2011

The final properties of an injection-molded part are strictly dependent on the solidification dynamics occurring during the processing. The experimental derivation of information about polymer solidification throughout the injection molding cycle is still an open challenge. To overcome the practical issues, the process simulation is proposed as a mean to derive useful data, and especially for identifying the most influencing parameters. The no-flow temperature (NFT) is a parameter used in most of injection molding simulation packages as a mean to determine whether the polymer flows or it is solid. With this simple parameter it is possible to take into account the rheological solidification …

The solidification behavior of a PBT/PET blend over a wide range of cooling rate

2009

In recent years, much attention has been paid to the development of high-performance polyester blends, among which blends of polybutylene terephtha- late/polyethylene terephthalate (PBT/PET) are expected to exhibit remarkable prop- erties as far as their crystallization behavior is concerned. Through trial and error, appropriate commercial compositions have been chosen which could not be otherwise explained by a suitable interpretation of the mechanisms determining their solidifica- tion behavior. The solidification behavior of a 60/40 w/w PBT/PET blend was studied in a wide range of cooling conditions, according to a continuous cooling transforma- tion (CCT) procedure developed previously,…

Theoretical Predictions and experimental determination of cloud point curves for polymeric solutions: an application to the ternary system Poly-lacti…

2011

The lattice fluid model with specific interactions was applied to the ternary system Poly-L-lactic-acid (PLLA)-dioxane-water. Model parameters were determined by fitting experimental data. The as-obtained parameters were used to calculate the complete phase diagram. An experimental apparatus for cloud point measurements, which is under construction, is presented.

Effect of pressure on the PVT behaviour of iPP as revealed by dilatometric measurements

2002

Isotactic Poly-propylene samples, previously prepared under known conditions of pressure and cooling rate by means of a special apparatus designed and set-up by the authors, were subjected to several isobaric runs at low cooling and heating rate in a confining fluid dilatometer (by GNOMIX). The effect of the previous thermo-mechanical histories and the effect of pressure in the dilatometry on specific volume of the samples was studied. Results show that the initial specific volume depends upon the previous thermo-mechanical histories, which however cancels out after the first heating run. Moreover the reported dilatometric experimental data support the evidence that an increase of pressure …

Poly-left-lactic acid tubular scaffolds via diffusion induced phase separation: Control of morphology

2013

n this work, tubular poly-left-lactic acid scaffolds for vascular tissue engineering applications were produced by an innovative two-step method. The scaffolds were obtained by performing a dip-coating around a nylon fiber, followed by a diffusion induced phase separation process. Morphological analysis revealed that the internal lumen of the as-obtained scaffold is equal to the diameter of the fiber utilized; the internal surface is homogeneous with micropores 1–2 μm large. Moreover, a porous open structure was detected across the thickness of the walls of the scaffold. An accurate analysis of the preparation process revealed that it is possible to tune up the morphology of the scaffold (w…
