The adsorption of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) on bovine dentin from aqueous solution was examined to clarify the priming effects of HEMA on dentin bonding. HEMA adsorption was characterized by: (1) slow attainment of equilibrium at higher concentrations (after 72 h); (2) a linear isotherm with a maximum possible adsorption, where an abrupt horizontal plateau occurred; (3) the large adsorption of ca. 2.5% by weight at the plateau; and (4) a vertical initial slope of the isotherm. The morphological difference between dentin powder surfaces before and after adsorption could not be determined. After heating, however, dentin powder which adsorbed HEMA was more resistant to demineralization with 6N HCl than the powder which did not adsorb. SEM examinations demonstrated that there was a demineralization-resistant dentin layer in tooth which adsorbed HEMA. The results indicated that HEMA infiltrated into intertubular dentin during adsorption.

The selective recycling of mixed plastic wastes with similar structural units is challenging. While heterogeneous catalysis shows potential for selective recycling, challenges such as complex mass transfer at multiphase interfaces and unclear catalytic mechanisms have slowed progress. In this study, a breakthrough in recycling mixed polyester wastes is introduced using heterogeneous photothermal catalysis.

Rechargeable aqueous zinc iodine (Zn-I) batteries offer benefits such as low cost and high safety. Nevertheless, their commercial application is hindered by hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and polyiodide shuttle, which result in a short lifespan. In this study, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)imidazole (HEI) organic molecules featuring pyrrole-N groups are introduced as dually-functional electrolyte additives to simultaneously stabilize Zn anode and confine polyiodide through ion-dipole interactions.

Activated protein C (APC), a serine protease produced from zymogen protein C (PC), is the key enzyme of the protein C pathway. APC has anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective features. APC has recently been shown to significantly reduce coagulation as well as mortality in patients with severe sepsis.

The purpose of this study is to synthesize a highly selective adsorbent to remove cholesterol, one of the most important causes of cardiovascular diseases, from the intestinal mimic solution (IMS). For this purpose, cholesterol imprinted polymers were synthesized by suspension polymerization method using the molecular imprinting technique. In the first step, the functional monomer MATyr with hydrophobic character was synthesized.

In this study, a novel adsorbent material, poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-N-isopropyl acrylamide) (p(HEMA-co-NIPAM) hydrogel, was synthesized for the purpose of removing methylene blue (MB) from aqueous media. The synthesis of hydrogel was carefully conducted, and its properties were thoroughly examined using techniques such as Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The adsorption experiments conducted revealed a remarkable affinity of p(HEMA-co-NIPAM) hydrogel towards MB.
