Leach-Proof Sol–Gel Microcapsules as Curing Agents for One-Pot Thermosetting Resins
2013
The sol-gel microencapsulation of free-radical initiator benzoyl peroxide in sol-gel methyl-modified silica microcapsules of core/shell geometry allows curing of acrylate-based polyurethane and polyester resin formulations sprayed from a pressurized can without the need to compartmentalize reactants from the initiator to cross-link. These results open the route to widespread application of sol-gel microcapsules to efficiently cure polymer and composite mixtures that are widely used as functional coatings, molding compounds, adhesives, and sealants.
Indirect Catalytic Spectrophotometric Determination of Metamizol Following Oxidation by Lead Dioxide Immobilized in A Polyester Resin Bed
1996
Abstract A spectrophotometric-indirect procedure for the determination of metamizol is described. The method is based on the reaction of the drug in a solid-phase (lead dioxide immobilized in a polyester resin bed) in acidic media (perchloric acid 0.01 M as carrier). The lead dioxide reactor provides simultaneously an effective oxidation of the drug and a controlled liberation of Pb(II) which acts as catalyst on the reaction pyrogallol red-potassium persulphate; the oxidation of the red pyrogallol results in a less coloured solution. The decreased red colour (negative FIA peaks) is monitored at 520 nm. The calibration graph is linear in the interval 2–16 ppm in metamizol. The relative stand…
FIA-spectrophotometric determination of N-substituted phenothiazine derivatives by oxidation with a solid-phase reactor of manganese dioxide incorpor…
1995
Abstract The determination of several N -substituted phenothiazine derivatives was carried out by the reaction of the drug with managanese dioxide entrapped in a polymeric material in a packed-bed reactor; the oxidized drug was monitored at λ max . The calibration graph is linear over the range 5–50 μg/ml of phenothiazine derivatives with a relative standard deviation of 0.5–1% (at 10 μg/ml) and sample throughput of 40–48 h −1 . The influence of foreign compounds was studied and the method was applied to the determination of six different phenothiazine derivatives in pharmaceutical formulations.
FIA-AAS determination of salicylic acid by a solid-phase reactor of copper carbonate incorporated in polyester resin beads.
1994
Abstract The determination of salicylic acid was carried out by reaction of the drug with copper carbonate entrapped in a polymeric material in a solid-phase reactor; the released cupric ions were monitored by flame atomic absorption at 324.8 nm. The calibration graph is linear over the range 4.0–75 μg ml −1 of salicylic acid, with a relative standard deviation of less than 1.5% and a sample throughout of 257 h −1 . The influence of foreign compounds was studied and the method was applied to the determination of salicylic acid content in two different pharmaceutical formulations.
Design and use of a Fatigue Test Machine in Plane Bending for Composite Specimens and Bonded Joints
2011
Polymeric and composites materials are increasingly used in industry as structural parts, so that specific information on their mechanical properties "at long term" (creep, relaxation, fatigue) are requested. The design and implementation of these components also requires that they are permanently connected together to perform certain functions. The use of adhesives in structural joints has increased over recent years thanks to the continuous development by companies which provide the market with adhesive having better and better mechanical properties. The main areas relate to the aerospace, aeronautical and automotive industries, where requirements are required for lightness and reliabilit…
Acoustic Emission Monitoring of Chemically Bonded Anchors
2010
This paper presents a study on the use of acoustic emission (AE) to assess the structural soundness of concrete reinforced with chemically bonded anchors. The results of an experimental work based on six pullout tests monitored using an AE instrumentation suite are reported below. In every test one rebar was embedded in the hardened concrete by means of polyester resin. The AE was adopted to moni- tor the onset and progression of any structural damage. The parametric analysis, the intensity analysis and the moment tensor analysis of AE data were used to discriminate among different sources of damage. The technique shows promise for field application and may contribute to fully understand th…
Effects of Moisture and Stresses on the Structure and Properties of Polyester Resin
2004
The results of a complex study of structural changes in a cured Norpol 440 polyester resin under the action of damp environment and mechanical loading are presented. A considerable effect of absorbed moisture on the structure and some characteristics of the material is revealed by using thermophysical methods and X-ray diffractometry. The joint effect of moisture and mechanical stress is estimated by investigating the creep in stationary and nonstationary moisture conditions. The anisotropy of the material structure formed during creep is evaluated from the results of dilatometric measurements. It is found that the degree of anisotropy of the material after creep accompanied by moisture sor…
An investigation of the influence of the macroscopic heterogeneity on the thermoelstic response of fibre reinforced plastics
2005
In this work the influence of the inherent heterogeneity in fibre reinforced plastic composites on the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the thermoelastic signal is discussed. The role of two different levels of heterogeneity is identified, distinguishing between a micro-geometric scale characterized by the presence of different constituent materials, and a macro-geometric scale characterized by a non-uniform distribution of these constituents. Attention has been focused on the macro-scale level, presenting results of experiments performed on glass fibre - polyester resin samples, intended to highlight the influence on the thermoelastic signal of the fabric texture pattern and the …

Solid state polymerization of new polyesters containing diacetylenic groups
1986
Synthesis and properties of some new polyesters of 10, 12-docosadiyn-1, 22-diol are described. The diyn-polyesters as films became coloured polydiacetylenic films on exposure to UV radiation and their properties were studied.
