    band (cNEB) calculation shows that Li hopping can be promoted by doping with high Ti concentration. This co-doping mechanism therefore can enhance both the electronic and ionic conductivities, which can be beneficial benchmark for cathode-material... to poor electronic and ionic conductivity. To investigate the conductivity enhancement of LiFePO4, first-principles method under the GGA+U framework is implemented to study effects of doping with Ti4+ at Fe2+ sites under the lithium-deficient environment

    Partially cyclized deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR) in latex form was successfully prepared by using a combination of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and benzotrichloride (PhCCl3) in the presence of Terric 320 as a non-ionic surfactant. The main parameters... of the cyclization process such as various reaction times, dry rubber contents, concentrations of catalyst and temperatures were investigated. The resulting rubber was subjected to characterization by proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR), Fourier-Transform

    (2005-12-01) Umaporn Paiphansiri; Pramuan Tangboriboonrat; Mahidol University
    The prevulcanisation of skim latex, a by-product of field natural rubber (NR) latex concentrated by centrifugation, using sulphur and peroxide systems was investigated. Compared to the peroxide prevulcanisation, the lower swelling ratio of film...) (PEO) moieties of a non-ionic surfactant (Nonidet) adsorbed on small SPVS particles and the indigenous surfactant (protein-lipid) on a large NR particle. The value of zeta potential of heterocoagulated particle and the better oil resistance of films

    A Label-Free Electrochemical Biosensor for Homocysteine Detection Using Molecularly Imprinted Polymer and Nanocomposite-Modified Electrodes
    (2023-05-01) Kongintr U.; Lertanantawong B.; Promptmas C.; Mahidol University
    /chitosan/ionic liquid compound (CNT/CS/IL) nanocomposite on the surface of a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE). It showed high sensitivity, with a linear response of 5.0 to 150 µM (R2 of 0.9753) and with a limit of detection (LOD) at 1.2 µ...M. It demonstrated low cross-reactivity with ascorbic acid, cysteine, and methionine. Recoveries of 91.10–95.83% were achieved when the Hcy-MIP biosensor was used for Hcy at 50–150 µM concentrations. The repeatability and reproducibility of the biosensor at the Hcy

    the same treatment showed little change on FL-latex, 0.035%. The toluene soluble fraction of these latices showed a decrease in the Mnvalue with an increase in the (NH4)2SO4concentration. The gel content of FL- and HA-lattices increased with an increasing... storage period in the presence and absence of (NH4)2SO4. The initial rate of increase in the gel content was slow in the case of FL-latex. These findings indicate that the gel fraction in HA-latex is partly formed by ionic crosslinks caused by Mg2+ions
