The fiber mat was composed of electrospun thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) nanofibers, with liquid-filled inter-fiber spaces (pores).
Scanning electron microscopy showed that the PCL/PEG membranes were of a bimodal structure consisting of backbone/main fibers (diameter range = 350 600 nm) and ultrathin nano-nets while the pure PCL mat was composed of only backbone fibers (diameter range = 550 800 nm).
In this paper, a simple approach is reported that uses a cation surfactant and a chelating agent to synthesize three-dimensional hierarchical nanostructured carbon-coated ZnO mats, in which the ZnO mats are composed of stacked individual ZnO nanowires and form well-defined nanoporous structures with high surface areas.
"Mats are composed of trillions and trillions of microbes that assemble on the floor of lakes, rivers, oceans," Noffke said in the email.
The collected mats were composed of randomly arranged fibers, free of defects (3.0 ± 0.1 μm average fiber diameter), and, due to the dynamic function of the here considered organ, characterized by means of dynamic mechanical analysis in a frequency range representative of the time scales of the physiological dynamics of the bladder wall.
As in most filamentous ascomycetes, the N. tetrasperma mat chromosomes contain the mat locus, which determines haploid sexual identity and is composed of two highly dissimilar alleles (mat A and mat a idiomorphs) [ 1, 2].
The MAT locus of C. neoformans is composed of >20 genes inherited as a single unit and located proximal to the telomere of chromosome 4. Nine of these 20 genes are found in the sequenced fosmids of F. depauperata.
The rubber mat, itself, provides advantages in terms of environmental impact, because it is composed by a high density elastic mat made with granular rubber coming from the recycling of End of Life Tires, stuck with isocyanate and pressed.
It is composed of a recycled rubber mat, sandwiched between two layers of SBS-modified bitumen.
The controller is composed of a 16x6x0.5 cm aluminum plate with two silicone heating mats located at each of its ends.
