Abstract: Bubble spinning method is a broadly discussed topic in the production of nanofibers in last few years. Bubble spinning technology is the youngest of the current known spinning methods and therefore not all the possibilities of this method are explored in these days. [..] Read more

Abstract: The aim was to prepare magnetic nanofibers with a high content of magnetic nanoparticles in these fibres. Elements which can be used for prepare of magnetic nanoparticles and magnetic nanofibers are many, only some are satisfying. [..] Read more

Abstract: Properties related to moisture vapor transmission rate through membrane are important in many branches also in building constructions. This article deals with comparison two methods of measurement water vapour diffusion flow through nanofiber textiles. [..] Read more

Abstract: The research is focused on water disinfection via new technological concept based on smart combination of nanostructured TiO2 layer and silver nanoparticles. The effective TiO2/Ag NPs photocatalytic system active in visible range was created via anodization of Ti thin film and UV-assisted and electrochemical pulse deposition of Ag NPs. [..] Read more

Abstract: The crawl space is a popular type of building foundations as in Europe as in Czech Republic. The bottom of building is the most predisposed space for biodeterioration and this space is often very difficult accessible for supplementary protection or for repairing. [..] Read more

Abstract: Organic photovoltaic (PV) system consisting of P3HT:PCBM blend layer was prepared with an aluminum (Al) back electrode. After the final thermal annealing the Al layer was partially removed. [..] Read more

Abstract: The paper deals with the analysis and optimization of spinning electrode designed for the nanofiber spinning method using an alternating electric current. The optimization was based on the simulation of distribution of electric field according to the shape of the spinning electrode by using the finite element method. [..] Read more

Abstract: In this paper we describe a nanopatterning technique of polyetherimide by scanning with the silicon tip in contact mode of atomic force microscopy. Different applied forces were used for the consecutive scanning of the same sample area. [..] Read more

Abstract: The potential of nanotechnology in the development of new materials (nanotextiles) in the civil engineering can provide advantage of new application. On the one hand, functionality of materials can be improved using nanotextiles and on the other hand, it could make possible a manufacture of nanotextiles with new properties. [..] Read more

Abstract: The paper deals with the design of a new effective electrode for coaxial electrospinnig process. This concept is based on a circular symmetric design enabling formation of a double polymeric layer. [..] Read more

Abstract: The aim of this work was to study dissolution and solubility of humic acids in water. Systems were studied using solution calorimetry. [..] Read more

Abstract: Humic substances are inherent part of soil. They are responsible for plants nutrition as well as soil structure and composition. [..] Read more

Abstract: Industrial branches are developing the best materials for their applications. An important part of surface engineering is represented by Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) and Thermal Spraying techniques. [..] Read more

Abstract: Solid phase microextraction (SPME) has been established as a modern, simple, sensitive, rapid and solvent free technique for sample preparation in organic analytical chemistry. Since SPME was first introduced by Pawliszyn in the early 1990s, several modifications of sorbent geometry were developed. [..] Read more

Abstract: Many industries like textile, paper, printing, plastic, food and cosmetic are utilising dyestuff to give different colours to their goods. The waste of these industries contain a large amount of dyes which is normally discharged in the drain water without proper treatments. [..] Read more

Abstract: In the field of applied research the combination of graphene and a semiconductor to form a Schottky solar cell (SSC) was found to be very significant. When compared to other types of solar cells being developed (organic or perovskite solar cells), the simple production process is an undisputable advantage of an SSC composed of graphene and silicon semiconductor. [..] Read more

Abstract: Nanofibrous layer performed as a membrane is capable of vibrating at low frequencies due to its small interfibrous spaces and planar arrangement brought into forced vibrations upon impact of sound waves of low frequency. The resonance of the nanofibrous elements allows acoustic energy to be converted into thermal energy. [..] Read more

Abstract: Antibacterial and self-cleaning cotton fabric was prepared by coating TiO2 nanoparticles with cellulose on the surface of cotton fabric. TiO2 nanoparticles were dispersed in cellulose solution (10% cellulose in 60% sulphuric acid solution) by mechanical stirring in order to coat. [..] Read more

Abstract: The reinforcement carbon fibers were modified using low pressure oxygen plasma treatment to attain the better adhesion between their surfaces and matrix of various composite materials. We investigated the influence of plasma treatment duration on the surface morphology, wettability and mechanical properties of carbon fibers. [..] Read more

Abstract: The paper deals with a change in the luminous radiation reflected by surfaces with coats with photocatalytic active particles. In the executed laboratory experiments, we used two commercially available coats with photocatalysts on the basis of TiO2 and one coat without photocatalytic active particles. [..] Read more
