IT has been noted 1 that cetyl-trimethyl-ammonium bromide is a collector for (that is, induces floatability of) several different types of mineral. The minimum effective concentration of the compound ...

A micelle is the cluster or aggregated particles formed by associated colloids (substances which, at high concentration, behave as colloidal solutions due to formation of micelles) in solution. A ...

Micelles play a crucial role in dispersing hydrophobic inks and drug in water-based solutions. Recently, researchers compared the dye solubilization capacities of micelles made from block and random ...

While water is essential to many aspects of our life, it is the least popular thing in a chemistry laboratory. The majority of organic synthesis requires organic solvents to provide a "dry" ...

March 10, 2021 - Kawasaki, Japan: The research group of Deputy Principal Research Scientist Dr. Satoshi Uchida (Associate Professor, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine) at the Innovation Center ...

Block copolymer micelles with well-defined core-shell structures significantly improve dye solubilization compared to random copolymers. This finding can lead to more efficient and cost-effective ...
