Abstract:
Process for producing a hydrophobic composite bioelastomer, comprising a cross-linked bioelastomer matrix in which an organic phase is dispersed, comprising the reaction of cross-linking of a hydroxyl-terminated polysiloxane with a silane coupling agent, comprising an acetoxysilane, to obtain a cross-linked polysiloxane with release of acetic acid. The reaction of cross-linking is carried out in the presence of starch to cause at least partial in situ acetylation by the acetic acid released from said starch that is incorporated in the cross-linked bioelastomer matrix.
Abstract:
Process for the production of a polymer foam with use of hydrogel pearls as porosity generating template, comprising the steps of: - providing a matrix of polymer or prepolymer in viscous state including, as a dispersed phase, hydrogel pearls, where said pearls are dispersed in said matrix so as to generate intercommunicating cells, - causing the solidification of the matrix of polymer or prepolymer to obtain said polymer foam including said hydrogel pearls, characterised in that it comprises the operation of subjecting the thus obtained foam to conditions which cause the dehydration of said hydrogel pearls so as to obtain a reduction of volume of said pearls and - removing the dehydrated pearls by immersion in water of the polymer foam or by exposure of the foam to a flow of pressurized gas or water.
Abstract:
Process for inhibiting the migration to the exterior of mineral oils consisting of saturated and/or aromatic hydrocarbons and/or of their volatile components, having from 10 to 25 carbon atoms included in packaging materials comprising recycled cellulosic fibres, characterized in that it comprises the operations of surface treatment of said packaging material to form a first polymer coating comprising an acrylic polymer, in contact with said fibres, and a second surface treatment by application of a second polymer coating comprising a cyclic olefin polymer on said first coating, where the total amount of acrylic polymer and of cyclic olefin polymer of the first and second coating is between 15 and 50 g/m 2 .

Abstract:
A magnetic actuator (1) comprising a substrate (3), a membrane layer (5) directly or indirectly applied on a surface (3 a) of the substrate (5), in which the membrane layer consists of a matrix of elastic polymer material, in which nanoparticles of magnetic material, capable of undergoing a dynamic effect under the action of a magnetic field, are dispersed, and at least one magnetic field generator (11) suitable to generate a magnetic field acting on the membrane layer (5), in which the magnetic field generator (11) is directly or indirectly arranged on the surface of the substrate, or within the substrate.
Abstract:
The present invention refers to a reusable sorbent sponge comprising a support structure made of an open pore flexible polyurethane foam and at least one oily substance, said reusable sorbent sponge being advantageously and preferably employed for the in-situ remediation of oil spills. The present invention also refers to a method for producing said reusable sorbent sponge.
Abstract:
Process for the production of a biodegradable plastics material obtained from plant waste materials, characterised in that it comprises the operations of: a) dissolving the said plant waste material in an anhydrous solvent comprising anhydrous trifluoroacetic acid; in order to dissolve a cellulose fraction of the said material, the said waste material being at least partly dehydrated in such a way that its water content is not likely to cause hydrolysis of the said cellulose fraction, and b) removing solvent from the solution containing the said non-hydrolysed cellulose fraction.
