AB  - Polymer composites based on unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) and reinforced with particles based on unmodified/modified
plant provenance biosilica particles were synthesized and characterized. An unsaturated polyester resin was obtained from
waste poly (ethylene terephthalate (PET). Biosilaca particles are made from rice husk biomass. The surface of the produced
silica particles was modified using three different silanes: 3-trimethoxysilylpropyl methacrylate (MEMO), trimethoxyvinylsilane (TMEVS), and 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS). The microhardness test method was used to investigate
the mechanical properties of synthesized composite material with variations in dwell times and applied loads. Optimization of
composite microhardness value prediction in function of synthesized parameters (type of modification of silica particles) and
measurement parameters (applied loads and dwell times) was done using the method of response surface methodology (RSM)
regression analysis. The maximal microhardness values (0.459 GPa) were obtained of type modification of silica particles with
vinyl with 80% confidence for 120 experimental variables. This method can be used to choose the optimal dwell time and load
for comparison of measurements between different composite materials and to enable the choice of the material in terms of
optimization of the quality of reinforcement and quality of interphase determined by surface modification.

AB  - This study is aimed at extending the soybean hulls' lifetime by their utilization as an adsorbent for metal ions (Cd2+ and Cu2+) and dyes (Reactive Yellow 39 (RY 39) and Acid Blue 225 (AB 225)). ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, FE-SEM microscopy, and zeta potential measurements were used for adsorbent characterization. The effect of the solution's pH, peroxidase extraction, adsorbent particle size, contact time, the pollutant's initial concentration, and temperature on the soybean hulls' adsorption potential was studied. Before peroxidase extraction, soybean hulls were capable of removing 72% Cd2+, 71% Cu2+ (at a pH of 5.00) or 81% RY 39, and 73% AB 225 (at a pH of 3.00). For further experiments, soybean hulls without peroxidase were used for several reasons: (1) due to their observed higher metal ion removal, (2) in order to reduce the waste disposal cost after the peroxidase (usually used for wastewater decolorization) extraction, and (3) since the soybean hulls without peroxidase possessed significantly lower secondary pollution than those with peroxidase. Cd2+ and Cu2+ removal was slightly increased when the smaller adsorbent fraction (710-1000 μm) was used, while the adsorbent particle size did not have an impact on dye removal. After 30 min of contact time, 92% and 88% of RY 39 and AB 225 were removed, respectively, while after the same contact time, 80% and 69% of Cd2+ and Cu2+ were removed, respectively. Adsorption of all tested pollutants follows a pseudo-second-order reaction through the fast adsorption, intraparticle diffusion, and final equilibrium stage. The maximal adsorption capacities determined by the Langmuir model were 21.10, 20.54, 16.54, and 17.23 mg/g for Cd2+, Cu2+, RY 39, and AB 225, respectively. Calculated thermodynamic parameters suggested that the adsorption of all pollutants is spontaneous and of endothermic character. Moreover, different binary mixtures were prepared, and the competitive adsorptions revealed that the soybean hulls are the most efficient adsorbent for the mixture of AB 225 and Cu2+. The findings of this study contribute to the soybean hulls' recovery after the peroxidase extraction and bring them into the circular economy concept.

AB  - This investigation represents a novel approach for tuning the jute structure and properties using sodium periodate (NaIO4) oxidation. The obtained results revealed that the jute fabrics exhibited an increase in the aldehyde group content (for up to 114.7%) with an increase in the NaIO4 concentration and/or oxidation duration. Due to the decline in the cellulose lateral order index (LOI) and fiber crystallinity index after oxidation, it can be concluded that jute crystalline areas are affected by sodium periodate oxidation. Both mentioned parameters are responsible for fabric mechanical properties, so, it was expected that by decreasing the LOI and jute fibers’ crystallinity, their maximum force and stiffness will decrease too. This behavior is also attributed to the fiber damage, which is the most pronounced for the fabric treated with 0.4% NaIO4 for 120 min. Besides slightly deteriorated mechanical properties, fabrics oxidized with 0.2% NaIO4 for 60 or 120 min and with 0.4% NaIO4 for 60 min showed lower mass loss (6.78-12.22%) after 750 abrasion cycles compared to the raw jute (18.94%). Furthermore, oxidation led to obtaining fabrics with enhanced moisture sorption and water retention power that are inversely proportional to the fiber crystallinity. Due to the opportunity for tuning fiber structure and properties oxidized fabrics can be considered for various applications such as geo-prebiotic supports for cyanobacteria growth in biocarpet engineering, i.e., to promote a sustainable relationship between the microbiota and abiotic constituents on the degraded land surface.

AB  - Electrochemically deposited nickel coatings from
sulfamate baths without/with lab-made biosilica (SiO2) particles on
the Si(100) substrate were produced. Different galvanostatic
regimes were used: direct current (DC), pulse current (PC), and
pulse-reverse current (PRC) regimes. The phase structure of the
synthesized silica nanoparticles from rice husks was obtained using
XRD and FE-SEM. The MMC-Ni/SiO2 and free Ni coatings were
characterized using FE-SEM, AFM, the micro indentation Vickers
technique, and the drop sessile method in order to investigate
structure, roughness, microhardness, and wettability. The optimal
deposition parameters were obtained with an emphasis on their
potential application as micro mounting coatings.

AB  - The sepiolite/ZrO2 composites were prepared by sepiolite (Sep) modification with zirconium propoxide in toluene at room temperature for 24 h (Sep–ZrI) or 95 °C for 4 h (sample Sep–ZrII). The efficiency of the obtained composites for the removal of phosphate from aqueous solutions at initial pH = 4 and pH = 8 was investigated. Characterization of the samples shows that synthesis at a higher temperature for a shorter time provides a slightly higher content of amorphous Zr phase, which is deposited on the sepiolite fibers as a thin layer and agglomerated nanoparticles. Compared to Sep, the composites have a lower point of zero charge and higher specific surface area and pore volume. The adsorption kinetics follow the pseudo second-order model. The adsorption capacities of the composites are approximately the same at both initial pH and higher at initial pH = 4 than at pH = 8. The XPS and ATR-FTIR of Sep–ZrI before and after adsorption identifies the formation of inner-sphere complexes as the mechanism of phosphate adsorption. The slow release during desorption with NaOH solution confirms the strong bonds of the phosphates with the surface of the composites.

AB  - Copper from sulfate baths without and with added inorganic pigment particles based on strontium aluminate doped with europium and dysprosium (SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+) was electrodeposited on a brass cathode by a galvanostatic regime. Morphological, structural, and roughness analysis of the pigment particles, the pure (pigment-free) Cu coating, and the Cu coatings with incorporated pigment particles were performed using SEM, XRD, and AFM techniques, respectively. Hardness and creep resistance were considered for the examination of the mechanical properties of the Cu coatings, applying Chicot–Lesage (for hardness) and Sargent–Ashby (for creep resistance) mathematical models. The wettability of the Cu coatings was examined by the static sessile drop method by a measurement of the water contact angle. The incorporation of pigment particles in the Cu deposits did not significantly affect the morphology or texture of the coatings, while the roughness of the deposits rose with the rise in pigment particle concentrations. The hardness of the Cu coatings also increased with the increasing concentration of pigments and was greater than that obtained for the pigment-free Cu coating. The presence of the pigments caused a change in the wettability of the Cu coatings from hydrophilic (for the pigment-free Cu coating) to hydrophobic (for Cu coatings with incorporated particles) surface areas.

Hardness and creep resistance were considered for the examination of the mechanical properties of the Cu coatings, applying Chicot–Lesage (for hardness) and Sargent–Ashby (for creep resistance) mathematical models. The wettability of the Cu coatings was examined by the static sessile drop method by a measurement of the water contact angle. The incorporation of pigment particles in the Cu deposits did not significantly affect the morphology or texture of the coatings, while the roughness of the deposits rose with the rise in pigment particle concentrations. The hardness of the Cu coatings also increased with the increasing concentration of pigments and was greater than that obtained for the pigment-free Cu coating. The presence of the pigments caused a change in the wettability of the Cu coatings from hydrophilic (for the pigment-free Cu coating) to hydrophobic (for Cu coatings with incorporated particles) surface areas.",

AB  - This paper presents sustainable technology for environmentally friendly composite production. Biobased unsaturated polyester resin (b-UPR), synthesized from waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) glycosylate and renewable origin maleic anhydride (MAnh) and propylene glycol
(PG), was reinforced with unmodified and vinyl-modified biosilica nanoparticles obtained from
rice husk. The structural and morphological properties of the obtained particles, b-UPR, as well as
composites, were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic
resonance spectroscopy (NMR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron
microscopy (TEM) techniques. The study of the influence of biosilica modification on the mechanical
properties of composites was supported by hardness modeling. Improvement of the tensile strength
of the b-UPR-based composite at 2.5 wt.% addition of biosilica modified with vinyl silane, named
“b-UPR/SiO2
-V” composite, has been achieved with 88% increase. The thermal aging process applied
to the b-UPR/SiO2
-V composite, which simulates use over the product’s lifetime, leads to the deterioration of composites that were used as fillers in commercial unsaturated polyester resin (c-UPR).
The grinded artificially aged b-UPR composites were used as filler in c-UPR for the production of a
table top layer with outstanding mechanical properties, i.e., impact resistance and microhardness, as
well as fire resistance rated in the V-0 category according to the UL-94 test. Developing sustainable
composites that are chemically synthesized from renewable sources is important from the aspect of
preserving the environment and existing resources as well as the extending their life cycle.

AB  - In the last decades, the rapid development of industrial and agricultural activity caused the release of different organic/or nonorganic pollutants in water, earth, and air which lead to a threat to human health and the ecological environment. These pollutants contain toxic heavy metals, organic dyes, pesticides, pharmaceutics, and others (Aboua et al., 2015). Organic dyes are visible pollutants used as coloring agents in, textiles, plastics, paper, food industries, etc. For their removal from wastewater, eco-friendly treatment is needed. Among many process purification, the process of adsorption proved to be an effective method for removing pollutants that are present in water, such as pesticides, dyes, and heavy metal ions. Due to the specific properties of polluting substances, the goal is to develop a cheap, efficient, environmentally friendly material. Among them, cotton-based materials can be obtained from various natural sources and can be employed as inexpensive adsorbents. Their adsorption capacities for pollutants can be related to chemical treatment. In general, chemically modified cellulose exhibits higher adsorption capacities for various aquatic pollutants than their unmodified forms. In this aim, oxidized cotton fabric was used in this work, which was chemically modified with citric acid and ethyl lysinate, respectively. In order to activate the surface of the fabric for chemical modification and increase absorption ability, carboxyl and aldehyde functional groups were introduced using hydrogen peroxide. Then the oxidized cotton fabric was cross-linked with citric acid and ethyl lysinate (Co-CA-Et-Lys) using diisopropylcarboimide to promote ester and amide groups formation. The structure of obtained material was analyzed by using the ATR-FTIR technique. The resulting modified fabric proved to be a good adsorbent for the removal of cationic dyes malachite green (MG) and methylene blue (MB). Its adsorption behavior with respect to the pH, adsorption time, and initial concentration was investigated. Based on the obtained results, it was concluded that the adsorption equilibrium was reached after 1 h for both Malachite Green (MG) and Methylene Blue (MB). Adsorption kinetics data were satisfactorily fitted with the pseudo-second-order rate model (PSO), and adsorption data were best fitted using Langmuir model. The Langmuir maximum adsorption capacities for Co-CA-Et-Lys cross-linked fabric showed a maximum of 168.4 mg/g and 124.9 mg/g for MG and MB, respectively. Compared to other adsorbents based on natural materials, oxidized cotton fabric showed much better sorption properties.

AB  - Fly ash (FA) is an industrial waste material generated during coal combustion in thermalpower plants. In order to reuse this kind of industrial waste, and at the same time to reduce itsquantity, fly ash was used as a cheap material for the preparation of efficient adsorbents for theremoval of selected dyes from water. For that purpose, different modification methods were used toobtain alkali-activated fly ash samples. The success of the modification process and characterizationof the unmodified and modified materials was monitored by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,and scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive spectroscopy. The adsorption properties ofexamined samples were studied through the adsorption of methylene blue, crystal violet, alizarin red,and methyl orange. All samples showed the highest adsorption efficiency for crystal violet removal,while the sample modified with a combination of NaOH, Na2SiO3, and diatomaceous earth(FA/geopolymer) was the most efficient adsorbent for all selected dyes. Therefore, the influence ofinitial pH value and contact time on adsorption was examined for the adsorption of crystal violetonto FA/geopolymer. It was found that alkaline modification improves the adsorption characteristicsof fly ash making it a promising candidate to solve the problem of colored wastewater.

AB  - Modern society are faced with lot of challenges in the treatment of many diseases, especiallywith serious ones such as cancer. Safer and more efficient treatment of the cancer patients are maingoals which researchers are aiming. One of the good approaches can be drug delivery systems.Still, a lot of anticancer drugs are poorly water-soluble and their encapsulation and controlled releasecan be quite challenging. Present study is focused to improve drug delivery system based onhydrophilic poly(methacrylic acid) and amphiphilic casein with encapsulated poorly water-solublecaffeine, which has been developed through our previous research. The hydrogels with 1.6mol% ofcrosslinker and 100% of neutralization degree of methacrylic acid are synthetized (PMAC-100N-4M). The swelling process of the PMAC-100N-4M hydrogels and caffeine release are analyzed intwo environments which simulate human stomach and intestines. It is also investigated how thechange in the encapsulated caffeine weight and the addition of liposomes with encapsulated caffeine,affect swelling degree of the PMAC-100N-4M hydrogels and release of caffeine. The resultsshow that controlled release of caffeine is improved, therefore overall therapy can be enhanced.

AB  - In this study we investigated the effect of cold rolling reductions and different annealing conditions, on the mechanical
properties and corrosion resistance of an AA5182 type Al-Mg alloy. Material was industrially produced and supplied as
hot rolled 12 mm thick plates. Further lab-processing included cold rolling with 40-85% reduction in thickness, and 2h
of annealing in the range of temperatures from 300-350°C. Annealed specimens were used for room temperature tensile
testing while corrosion testing was performed on the annealed and sensitized specimens. Intergranular corrosion (IGC)
susceptibility was determined by nitric acid mass loss test (NAMLT) for the selected states.
The results showed that corrosion resistance, tensile strength and yield point elongation were mostly affected by a degree
of cold deformation. It was found that increasing in cold rolling reduction from 40-85% before annealing causes an
improved strength level due to grain size refinement. However, yield point elongation became more pronounced and a
tendency towards Lüdering as undesirable surface appearance was increased. NAMLT testing showed that the material
was corrosion resistant in as-annealed condition while it became susceptible to intergranular corrosion after sensitization
treatment. IGC susceptibility of sensitized specimens increases with cold rolling reduction and a grain size refinement.

AB  - A convenient and efficient approach toward the synthesis of six 3-(4-substituted benzyl)-6,7-benzo-1,3-diazaspiro[4.5]decane-2,4-diones (1‒6) by Bucherer-Bergs reaction and further alkylation at position 3 of the hydantoin ring is reported. Further, their chemical structure was confirmed by melting points, elemental analysis, FT-IR, NMR and UV–Vis spectroscopic methods. To gain an insight into interactions which the investigated spirohydantoins establish with their environment, their absorption spectra were recorded in selected solvents of different polarity and the solvent effects on the UV-Vis absorption band positions, intensity and shape, were discussed. Substiuent effects on the solvatochromism of compounds 1−6 were analyzed using the Hammett's equation. Considering the broad applications of hydantoin derivatives, as well as the fact that their relative importance may increase in the future, results obtained in this study serve as a basis for further investigations.

AB  - We combined cold plasma treatment (CPT) with water, ethanol, Fenton and hydrogen peroxide media under acidic and basic conditions for treatment of corn stalks as significant lignocellulose agri-industrial waste. Chemical properties of treated samples were analyzed by FTIR and mercury porosimetry, acetyl bromide soluble lignin content was determined by spectrophotometric methods, while carbohydrate 
fractions were subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis followed by spectrophotometric analysis to assess its potential for fermentations. Lignin fraction which is often neglected (Ponnusamy et al., 2019) was also examined as a source of antioxidants.

AB  - The depletion of fossil fuel reserves and severe environmental damage, resulting in climate change and global warming lead to a necessary shift to alternative renewable resources. Lignocellulose is a valuable feedstock for biorefineries, but its conversion is hindered by the limitations of conventional pretreatments lacking selectivity. This step should also be cost-effective and sustainable. In this paper, combined advanced oxidation techniques were applied for the treatment of corn stalks as a pretreatment for enzymatic hydrolysis. Their effect on delignification and cellulose digestibility was monitored. The combined non-thermal plasma/Fenton treatment appears to be suitable for breaking the complex lignocellulose structure, with a lignin content decrease of 39%. This treatment enhanced carbohydrate hydrolysis, resulting in 2.25 times increase in hexose yield, compared to the untreated sample. Long-term plasma treatment positively affected the textural properties, total porosity, and pore size diameter, of lignocellulose biomass. It enables the creation of materials with a stable system of pores and channels, for the unhindered diffusion of large organic molecules such as enzymes. Additionally, a combination of plasma treatment with Fenton reaction increased selectivity towards lignin degradation in comparison to independently applied Fenton treatment. This could be a significant advantage for a bottleneck in the current valorization of biomass.

AB  - This study reports successful free radical synthesis of pH-sensitive hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) by using new green initiation system based on vitamin C and hydrogen peroxide (VC/H2O2). The application of proposed initiation system provides many advantages, above all cost effective and eco-friendly synthesis which can be carried out under ambient conditions. The obtained PMAA hydrogels are analyzed by various technics: Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy and by using single compression tests. In line with the intended application, PMAA hydrogels are further investigated in terms of their potential to be used for encapsulation and controlled release of active substances such as antioxidant phenolic compounds. To keep it green, the total phenolic compounds (TPC) were obtained from orange peels waste by applying ultrasonic-assisted extraction and deep eutectic solvent (DES) based on glycerol:urea:water. The TPC were successfully encapsulated into the PMAA hydrogels which were previously estimated to have the optimal mechanical and swelling properties with respect to the final application. The swelling behavior of the PMAA hydrogels and controlled release of the TPC were tested as a function of the various synthesis parameters in several media with different pH values. It was shown that TPC can be released in control manner in medium which simulates the environment in human intestines, finally resulting in enhanced bioavailability of TPC, reduced side effects and improved therapeutic effects.

AB  - High concentrations of hydrophobic MFI zeolite (26.0–51.3 wt%) were successfully embedded in poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) network in simple, one-pot synthesis of PMAA-MFI composite hydrogels. The effects of zeolite concentration regarding pure PMAA xerogel, for all of the investigated properties (primary structural parameters, morphological properties, water swelling ability, thermal degradation mechanism and stability, and mechanical properties) were determined and discussed. The PMAA-MFI composite hydrogels had remarkably higher density than PMAA xerogel (1660/1420 kg m−3), higher crosslinking density (29/1.0 × 10−4), improved mechanics in the dry and swollen state (up to 4.9 times higher storage modulus) and lower swelling degree (42/420 g g−1), average molar mass between the network crosslinks (3.6/110 × 104 g mol−1), and distance between the macromolecular chains (64/710 nm). Despite high zeolite concentration, the composites kept porous hydrogel structure with uniformly dispersed zeolite particles. FTIR spectra disclosed the existence of functional groups of PMAA network and MFI zeolite that interacted mutually and led to increased crosslinking density. The effect of zeolite concentration on the thermal degradation mechanism was established. The composition-properties correlations were determined and described by the adequate linear or power law equations revealing the additive nature of the composites and the fractal structure of the networks. These correlations enable the achievement of desired properties by simple adjustment of the initial composition, i.e. zeolite concentration. Therefore, this work presents the base for further development of tailor-made PMAA-MFI composite hydrogels aimed for specific application.

AB  - Kaolinite/illite (KUb) and sepiolite (SEP) clays were used to study Cr(III) adsorption removal from aqueous solutions so that they could be utilized after saturation for ceramic manufacturing. SEP had a larger specific surface area and a higher PZC than KUb. The removal of Cr(III) was evaluated using a batch equilibration procedure at pHi = 4 and pHi = 6. Fast removal kinetics were observed for both clays. Maximum removal capacity was determined by changing the concentration of Cr(III) while keeping the concentration of clay constant and by altering the amount of clay while keeping the concentration of Cr(III) constant. In all situations, SEP had greater capacity than KUb, and capacity was greater for both clays at higher pHi. Not only did the pHi impact the removal capacity and efficiency, but so did the pH during adsorption and the initial concentration of Cr(III). Because of the higher PZC, the pHf for SEP was higher for the same pHi. The higher the pH and Cr(III) concentration, the higher the probability of Cr(OH)3 precipitation and the higher the removal capacity. Dried saturated clays were uniaxially pressed and sintered at 1000 °C for 2 h. The densities of the sintered materials were nearly identical to those of pure clay-based materials, but the compressive strengths were higher, which is significant for the use of saturated clays as raw materials in ceramic manufacturing. Leaching of Cr from SEP-based material was significantly higher than from KUb-based material probably due to the presence of CaCO3 in the SEP.

AB  - The study aimed to estimate the influence of temperature, time, and ultrasound application during desizing and scouring of cotton with α-amylase and pectinase, respectively, on the weight loss, breaking force and color difference between raw and bio-scoured cotton, to obtain purified and hydrophilic cotton, with a simultaneous slight decrease in mechanical properties. Under the optimal conditions, determined by the application of Response Surface Methodology (time – 30 min, temperature – 59.4 °C, with ultrasound treatment), a weight loss of 4.97%, color difference of 3.86, and a breaking force of 730.22N were obtained. The bio-scoured cotton fabric was also characterized in terms of electrokinetic and sorption properties, chemical composition and morphology of the cotton surface by zeta-potential measurement, wicking and contact angle determination, FTIR and SEM characterization, respectively. The developed enzymatic scouring process leads to obtaining purified, whiter and hydrophilic cotton, with slight changes in mechanical properties, which makes bio-scoured cotton fabric suitable for further wet processing.

AB  - Oxidized cotton linters, TOCell, were used as an adsorbent or derived membrane there from by linterscross-linking with citric acid. The adsorption/desorption study of Pb2+, methylene blue (MB), and crystalviolet (CV) removal, was performed. Adsorption data fitting, obtained using the Langmuir model, gave116 mg g 1 (Pb2+), 179 mg g 1 (MB) and 482 mg g 1 (CV) at 25 ℃ for TOCell linters, while 101 mg g 1(Pb2+), 165 mg g 1 (MB) and 426 mg g 1 (CV) for TOCell membrane. After desorption dyes were subjectedto photocatalytic degradation while lead was transformed into stable lead phthalate (LP), and furtherused as filler in composites based on unsaturated polyester resins (UPR). UPR was synthesized fromwaste polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Structural characterization was performed using FTIR, SEM,and NMR methods. Composites loaded with acryloyl modified kraft lignin (A-KfL) and/or LP was testedfor tensile strength, Vickers microhardness, and fire resistance (UL-94 V method). The best mechanicaland fireproofing properties were obtained at 15 wt.% A-KfL and 40 wt.% Al(OH)3 addition. The resultsof the toxicity leaching test (TCLP) confirmed the environmentally safe stabilization of desorbed pollutantin the UPR matrix. Application of environmentally friendly membranes, susceptible to easy biodegradation, had low negative effects to the environment.

AB  - Liposome-encapsulated folic acid was incorporated into the films made from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) (2 mas%) and a mixture of carboxymethyl cellulose and solagum (9:1 w/w) using the film-forming cast solution method. Histidine was used to increase solubility for folic acid in liposomes (1-5 mg/ml), and propylene glycol was used as a film plasticizer (2.6 mas%). The obtained films (50-60 µm tick) containing 3.12-20.19 mg of folic acid per gram of film are envisaged to be used as patches for transdermal delivery of folic acid. Therefore, some physical, mechanical, release and structural attributes of the films were scrutinized. Folic acid gave yellow color to the films and contributed to stronger chemical bonds which resulted in improved strength of the film. Liposomes prolonged the release of folic acid from films to 24 h without adverse effects on mechanical properties of the films, but degraded homogeneity of the films, which could be ascribed to its agglomeration within the film matrix as revealed by AFM. According to the release at pH 5.5, the film formulation based on a blend of CMC and solagum containing 3 mg/ml liposome-encapsulated folic acid is recommended from the point of view of release kinetics determined by its solubility.  Practical application: Folic acid is effective in reducing oxidative stress levels in the skin and neutralizing the harmful free radicals and is also essential for various metabolic reactions in the body. However, the limited solubility of folic acid linked with its poor absorption in an organism, low storage stability, short half-life upon oral consumption, specific food preferences of some people, extensive liver metabolism, and pregnancy-induced vomiting point to a large potential in transdermal usage of folic acid. This has motivated us to design new multicomponent polymer-lipid systems as an alternative solution to overcome some of these drawbacks. The results obtained for these multicomponent films pointed to their potential for prolonged release of folic acid to 24 h, which can also be useful for scientists interested in encapsulating similar poorly soluble compounds in CMC patches. The finding can be also valuable information for pharmaceutical manufacturers and scientists worldwide.

AB  - The pattern recognition approach, explored by this study, applies the principal component
analysis (PCA) as the most widely used statistical method with the aim of assessing the initiation
and propagation of the cracks and defects that appear on the surface of material exposed to the
cavitation. The experiment was performed in four stages: (a) synthesis of two ceramic materials
(cordierite and zircon); (b) subjecting the samples to the cavitation; (c) using image analysis
software for collecting the data about morphological characteristics that describe defects; (d)
principal component analysis as a pattern recognition tool in order to characterize the defects at
the material surface. Besides that, according to standard, cavitation erosion was monitored by
determining material mass loss during the cavitation. Large experimental datasets collected from
morphological descriptors by image analysis are multivariate and difficult to interpret, thus are
processed by principal component analysis as the most informative technique for extracting
possible differences. The performed approach proved that this method has a great potential for
better assessment of induced defects by proper distinguishing among them at different levels and
that can be considered a very efficient and cost-effective one.

AB  - The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of weathering processes on the distribution of n-alkanes in unweathered and weathered samples of badland material. Organic matter (OM) of both the weathered and unweathered zones in badland environments is derived from the same sources such any differences between the n-alkane pattern of the two zones can be attributed to the impact of weathering processes under different climate conditions. Organic geochemical and mineralogical characterizations were employed to investigate twenty-one samples from weathered badland environments in Italy, Spain, and Canada that originally derive from marine, distal alluvial, and fluvial depositional settings, respectively. According to the distribution of n-alkanes and diterpanes, unweathered samples from Italy have an original mixed aquatic-terrestrial origin of OM, with a variable (low to moderate) contribution of terrestrial plants as precursors, while unweathered samples from Spain predominantly contain OM originating from submerged/floating macrophytes deposited under reducing conditions. Unweathered samples from Canada predominantly consist of terrigenous OM. Intensity of changes in n-alkanes distribution when subjected to weathering depends on the type of precursor biomass and quantity of smectite. Predominantly terrigenous OM under semi-arid conditions shows the highest affinity for adsorption is in contact with smectite surfaces. Mid- and long-chain odd n-alkanes have a tendency to build colloidal particles with polar organic compounds such as fatty acids by strong binding and thus their preservation from degradation is possible.

AB  - The present study describes representative examples of supramolecular arrangement of 5-phenylhydantoins achieved through various N–H⋯O hydrogen-bonding patterns. Four derivatives, 5-ethyl-5-(4-methylphenyl)hydantoin (1) and three 5-methyl-5-(3- or 4-substituted phenyl)hydantoins (2–4), were synthesized by the Bucherer–Bergs reaction and their crystal structures were determined by the single crystal X-ray diffraction method. A racemate, racemic hydrate and conglomerate as outcomes of crystallization from racemic solutions were found here. The crystal structures were firstly subjected to Hirshfeld surfaces analysis. The development of hydrogen bonding driven two-dimensional assemblies such as tapes, ribbons and sheets was further analysed using DFT calculations in terms of contribution of dimeric motifs as building blocks, which are associated with the presence of intermolecular interactions. To explore qualitative correlations between intermolecular interactions determining the crystal structures of the investigated compounds and those underlying their biological activity, we performed a docking study on the neuronal voltage gated sodium channels, matrix metalloproteinase 12 and aldose reductase. The supramolecular profiles of the investigated compounds are also maintained in biological systems and as such are responsible for differences in their biological activities.

AB  - In this work, the electrooxidation ability of nine pyridones was evaluated using cyclic
(CV) and square-wave voltammetry (SWV) in Britton–Robinson (BR) aqueous buffer solutions on a
glassy carbon electrode (GC). The dependence of electrochemical activity on pyridone structure was
elucidated by means of experimentally obtained spectra and quantum chemical calculations. Firstly, it
was shown that electrochemical activity is determined by the –OH group as a substituent in position
6 of the pyridone ring. By coupling the experimentally obtained UV-Vis spectra and DFT calculations,
the most stable forms, both protonated and deprotonated, were defined. The calculated values are
consistent with the electrochemical behavior observed, indicating that the deprotonated anionic form
was the most electrochemically active. Moreover, the impact of the substituent in position 3 of the
pyridone scaffold was discussed
