Polymer blends based on poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) copolymers, P(VDF-TrFE), and poly(ethylene oxide), PEO, with varying compositions have been prepared by solvent casting. In this way, P(VDF-TrFE) ...
The production of chitosan nanofiber mats by electrospinning presents serious difficulties due to the lack
of suitable solvents and the strong influence of processing parameters on the fiber properties. Two are
the main ...

[EN] This work reports on the nucleation of the beta-phase of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) by incorporating CoFe2O4 and NiFe2O4 nanoparticles, leading in this way to the preparation of magnetoelectric composites. The ...
Chitosan fiber mats were successfully processed by electrospinning. The as-spun fiber mats were neutralized with ethanol and cross-linked with glutaraldehyde. A decrease of the fiber average diameter from 243 +/- 43 nm ...

In the present paper we report and discuss the physicochemical properties of novel electrolyte membranes, based on poly(vinylidenefluoride-co-trifluoroethylene), PVdF-TrFE, and poly(vinylidenefluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene), ...
Electroactive beta-poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membranes were obtained by isothermal crystallization from the solution. Different morphologies and microstructures were obtained by crystallizing at different temperatures. ...
