“…The value of T g for all the nanocomposites is also collected in Table I. As we know, the PS plasticized by glycerol exists as a complex heterogeneous system composed of glycerolrich domains dispersed in a starch-rich continuous phase, 44 and each phase should exhibit its own T g . 18 Therefore, the transition at 16.58C of PS should be associated with glass transitions of starch-rich phase.…”

A triple‐band multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) antenna is presented.The proposed antenna consists of a C‐shaped monopole antenna that provides dual‐band resonant antenna. By protruding an L‐shaped parasitic strip on the ground plane, a third band as well as enhancement of the isolation between two ports in MIMO array is achieved. The proposed antenna can cover 2.1–2.6, 3.3–4, and 5.4–6 GHz, which are allocated for WLAN and WiMAX applications. The proposed triple‐band antenna structure is used in different two‐element MIMO arrays. Simulation results show that the S11, S12, and S22 of the MIMO arrays are independent of the position of the two‐element. The results show good S‐parameters, high peak gain and radiation efficiency, and stable radiation patterns among the triple‐band coverage. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…When this material is biodegraded or incinerated releases CO 2 into the atmosphere. This starch characteristic has attracted a strong interest in conventional polymer market by incorporating it in polymer mixtures 2 . In addition, the use of starch is an excellent alternative for edible films and coatings due to its easy processing, low cost, abundance, biodegradability and edibility [3][4][5][6][7] .…”

“…Differently from other traditional synthesized biochemical materials, biopolymers or bioplastics have an interesting set of advantages namely the reduced environmental impact, the low consumption of energy in their production, their renewable resource status, the potential to add value to by-products and waste coming from industries and their particular biodegradability. [1][2][3][4] Their applications are several and varied: they may be found as parts of wrappings, medical materials, reinforced plastics, edible films and others. [5][6][7] Nowadays there is a trend towards the synthesis of biofilms possessing conducting properties in order to be used in electronic and medical industries.…”

No presente trabalho, biofilmes condutores foram sintetizados através de soluções de 100 mL de água com 3 g de amido de mandioca (Manihot esculenta Crantz) e quantidades diferentes de glicerina, glutaraldeído, polietilenoglicol e perclorato de lítio. Estes filmes foram caracterizados por espectroscopia de impedância eletroquímica (EIS), microscopia eletrônica de varredura (SEM), espectrometria de reflexão total atenuada no infravermelho com transforma de Fourier (ATR-FTIR), termogravimetria (TG). Os resultados mostraram que os biofilmes com quantidades mais elevadas de perclorato de lítio possuem valores maiores de condutividade e as diferenças morfológica e molecular foram observadas como sendo um resultado das proporções adicionadas dos compostos em cada uma das rotas de preparação.In the current work, conductor biofilms were synthesized by means of solutions of 100 mL of water with 3 g of starch from cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) and different amounts of glycerin, glutaraldehyde, polyethyleneglycol and lithium perchlorate. These biofilms were characterized through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and thermogravimetry (TG). Results showed that biofilms with higher amount of lithium perchlorate portray higher values of conductivity and morphological and molecular differences could be observed as a result of the added proportions of the compounds in each one of the trials.
