Adsorption of water vapour on wool provides not only textile comfort, but also convenience in transportation due to increase in its bulk density. The adsorption and desorption isotherms of water vapour for wool were ...

Hollow fibers formed from water glass and metal salts of IIA(Ca), VIIB(Fe, Co, Ni) and IB(Cu) groups were characterised in this study. Fragile fibres obtained herein broke down into small pieces during isolation and drying. ...

Well-defined CoCl2-containing silica gels were prepared by impregnation of the aqueous solution of the salt to silica hydrogel, drying and aging methods. Silica gels having 392-437 m2 g-1 surface area and 0.21-0.37 cm3 g-1 ...

Water vapour adsorption on polymers affects their processing behaviour and useful properties. Water vapour adsorption on organic polymers, silk, Nylon 6 fibres in undrawn and permanent set forms, polyester micro fibres, ...

Flexible poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) composites having natural zeolite clinoptillolite were prepared by plastisol-plastigel technology. Adsoption of methylene blue on each raw material and on composites was studied both ...
