Mechanical And Wetting Properties Of Coated Paper Sheets With Varying Polydimethylsiloxane Molecular Masses In The Coating Formulation, Çağla Söz

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Coated paper sheets were prepared by immobilizing a thin coating layer of cross-linked polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and inorganic particles onto Whatman filter paper Grade 1 (WFP) substrates. Several coatings that differed in terms of their PDMS molecular masses were sprayed onto WFP substrates to investigate the effect of this variation on the (i) wettability and (ii) mechanical properties of the samples. Different samples having clay or silica particles in the coating formulation were investigated separately. Nonwettable coated paper sheets with promising mechanical properties were achieved and further investigated in terms of (iii) thermal resistance.

The study aims to determine the character and optimization of the sorption of Na-alginate-containing composite biosorbent on the sorption of heavy metal Cd2+ metal ions in an aqueous solution. Optimum conditions of parameters such as biosorbent amount, pH value effect, concentration effect, contact time, and temperature that affect the sorption of Cd2+ ions were determined. Langmuir, Freundlich, D-R isotherms were applied to the obtained data, and it was noted that the sorption Cd2+ ions are better explained with Freundlich and …
