Pore Structures and Acid–Base Properties of γ-Al2O3 Synthesized Using Different Precipitation and Drying Conditions

Abstract Although the alkali precipitation method is a significant industrial synthesis method for metal oxides, the effects of each process step on the physical and chemical properties of metal oxides have not been systematically investigated. This study performed a systematic i...

Time-Dependent UV/Ozone Treatment Modulates Platelet Adhesion on Polystyrene and Cyclo-Olefin Polymer through Fibrinogen Orientation

Abstract UV/ozone (UVO) treatment is a versatile, solvent-free approach for modifying polymer surfaces in biomedical applications. Although its effects on RGD-dependent cell adhesion have been extensively studied, the mechanisms underlying non-RGD-dependent interactions, specific...

Spectroscopic Analysis of Hydration Structures in PEG‐ and PMPC‐Containing Hydrogels by Pressure‐Controlled ATR‐IR Combined With Multivariate Curve Resolution

ABSTRACT Hydration structures govern the properties and functions of hydrogels, yet selectively measuring hydration water in the presence of abundant bulk water remains analytically challenging. Here we applied pressure‐controlled attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy...
