  Chemical Modifications of Polymer for Improved Anti-Microbial Action

  By T.R. Amsica, A. Leema Rose, F. Janeeta Priya, S. Vidhya, P. Aparna, S. S. Syed Abuthahir

  Abstract: Infections caused by pathogenic microorganisms are a significant concern. Polymers, large molecules formed by chemically connecting monomers, have acquired significant interest due to their intrinsic properties. Polymers function as a matrix for the components that contain antibacterial agents. Developing polymers with antibacterial activity is a crucial research area that aims to alleviate the problem of microbe contamination. The antibacterial polymers typically exhibit prolonged effectiveness. Modification of polymers enhances their anti-microbial …

  Comparative Evaluation of Hibiscus Cannabinus and Solanum Trilobatum Extracts as Inhibitors for C- Steel Corrosion protection in Acidic Medium

  By S. Meena, C. Mary Anbarasi, S. S. Syed Abuthahir

  Abstract: This study analyzed the efficacy of various inhibitors in safeguarding carbon steel against corrosion in hydrochloric acid. The compounds that were subjected to testing included Acalypha indica root extract (AIRE), Hibiscus cannabinus (HC), and Solanum trilobatum (ST) leaf extracts. The investigation focused on the inhibitory efficacy through the application of gravimetric and electrochemical impedance methods. GC-MS and FTIR were employed to investigate the features of the inhibitors and co-inhibitors. Tafel …
