The experimental results of an air-core pulse transformer are presented, which is very compact (<10 Kg in weight) and is primed by a capacitor bank that is fabricated in such a way that the capacitor bank with its switch takes the shape of single-turn rectangular shaped primary of the transformer. A high voltage capacitor assembly (pulse-forming-line capacitor, PFL) of 5.1 nF is connected with the secondary of transformer. The transformer output voltage is 160 kV in its second peak appearing in less than 2 μS from the beginning of the capacitor discharge. The primary capacitor bank can be charged up to a maximum of 18 kV, with the voltage delivery of 360 kV in similar capacitive loads. 相似文献
Submerged citric acid (CA) bioproduction was carried out by Aspergillus niger NRRL‐567 using various industrial wastes, such as brewery spent liquid (BSL), lactoserum and starch industry water sludge. CA bioproduction was carried out by varying the temperature (25–35 °C), pH (3–5), addition of inducers, incubation time and supplementation with different proportions of apple pomace ultrafiltration sludge (APS). The results indicated that under the best conditions with 3% (v/v) methanol, the optimal concentration of 11.34 g L?1 CA was recorded using BSL at pH 3.5 and temperature 30 °C after 120‐h incubation period. Supplementation of methanol resulted in an increase of 56% CA production. Meanwhile, under similar conditions, higher concentration of 18.34 g L?1 CA was reported with the supplementation of BSL with 40% (v/v) APS having suspended solids concentration of 30 g L?1. The present study demonstrated the potential of BSL supplemented with APS as an alternative cheap substrate for CA fermentation. 相似文献
Present paper reports the synthesis of nanostructured (Sn–Ti)O2 via physicochemical method, its characterization and performance as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) sensor. The synthesized material was characterized using XRD that confirmed the formation of (Sn–Ti)O2 nanocomposite. Minimum crystallite size was found as 7 nm. The material was also investigated through SEM, DSC, FTIR, PL and UV–Vis spectrophotometer. Further, the pellet, thick and thin films were fabricated for the sensing analysis. Pellets (9 mm diameter, 4 mm thickness) of (Sn–Ti)O2 nanocomposite were made by hydraulic pressing machine by applying uniaxial pressure of 616 MPa, thick films (thickness ~2 µm) were made by screen printing technique and thin films were prepared using a Photo resist spinner unit. Further at room temperature, the pellet and films were exposed to LPG in a gas chamber under controlled conditions at room temperature and variations in resistance with the concentrations of LPG were observed. The maximum value of sensitivity of solid state pellet, thick and thin films based sensors were found 7, 9 and 39 for 5 vol% of LPG, respectively. Sensing characteristics were found to be reproducible, after 6 months of their fabrication, indicating the stability of the sensors. 相似文献
Objective: Innovation in material science has made it possible to fabricate a pharmaceutical material of modifiable characteristics and utility, in delivering therapeutics at a sustained/controlled rate. The objective of this study is to design and optimize the controlled release transdermal films of S-Amlodipine besylate by intercalating hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers.
Methods: 3(2) factorial design and response surface methodology was utilized to prepare formulations by intercalating the varied concentration of polymers(A) and penetration enhancer(B) in solvent. The effect of these independent factors on drug release and flux was investigated to substantiate the ex-vivo, stability and histological findings of the study.
Results: FTIR, DSC revealed the compatibility of drug with polymers; however, the semicrystallinity in drug was observed under PXRD. SEM micrographs showed homogeneous dispersion and entanglement of drug throughout the matrix. Results from the permeation study suggested the significant effect of factors on the ex vivo permeation of drug. It was observed that drug release was found to be increased with an increase in hydrophilic polymer concentration and PE. The formulations having polymers (EC:PVPK-30) at 7:3 showed maximum drug release with highest flux (102.60?±?1.12?µg/cm2/h) and permeability coefficient (32.78?±?1.38?cm/h). Significant effect of PE on lipid and protein framework of the skin was also observed which is responsible for increased permeation. The optimized formulation was found to be stable and showed no-sign of localized reactions, indicating safety and compatibility with the skin.
Conclusion: Thus, results indicated that the prepared intercalated transdermal matrix can be a promising nonoral carrier to deliver effective amounts of drug. 相似文献
