Numerical Modeling of Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) Swelling and Dissolution in Water
This study investigates the numerical models for polymer dissolution, with a long-term goal of developing high performance dissolvable elastomer from Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) replacing current not dissolvable rubber based materials. With fast development of hydraulic-fracturing in past 15 years, the …

Correlating macroscopic rheological behaviour to microstructure of polymer flocculated Mature Fine Tailings (MFT)
… in their vicinity. Treatment of tailings with polymers (combined with other processes such as thin-lift drying, atmospheric fines drying) is one of the preferred methods for capturing the suspended solids and releasing the trapped water. However, the fundamental understanding of microstructure …

Investigating the Hydration and Disintegration Mechanisms of Film-Coated Pharmaceutical Tablets
… Tablets are often film-coated with a layer of polymeric material to protect the drug from environmental degradation, facilitate the packaging process, and enhance patient compliance. However, the mechanisms of hydration, disintegration and subsequent drug release and dissolution of a …
