In the present work, hydroxyapatite-polymer materials were developed. The preparation, as well as characterization of the ceramic-polymer composites based on polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium alginate, and gelatin were described. The system was enriched with the addition of common sage extract (Salvia officin...
Beeswax is produced naturally by honeybees in the bees’ hive and is well known as hydrophobic in nature and is used in the production of candles, metal casting, cosmetic products, textiles, polishes, and in food processing [177]. It presents high plasticity, is viscoelastic, and has a low...
Visible-light active photocatalysts in the form of coatings that can be produced using large-scale methods have attracted considerable attention. Here we show a facile approach to deposit coatings using the low pressure cold spray (LPCS) from oxygen-rich amorphous titanium dioxide, which is a stru...
