Effects of low-temperature curing on physical behavior of cold-curing epoxy adhesives in bridge construction

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Omar Moussa

The effect of low-temperature curing on the physical characteristics of a commercial cold-curing epoxy adhesive was experimentally and analytically investigated with a view to a potential application in bridge construction in winter. Curing at low temperat ...

UV-intensity, temperature and dark-curing effects in cationic photo-polymerization of a cycloaliphatic epoxy resin

Véronique Michaud, Yves Leterrier, Basile Golaz

A difunctional cycloaliphatic epoxy monomer was cationically photo-polymerized in the presence of a diaryliodonium salt photoinitiator and an isopropyl thioxanthone photosensitizer at different temperatures and UV intensities. The photo-polymerization kine ...

Coating of open cell foams

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Han Zhang

The interior surfaces of three-dimensional open cell foams were coated by a combination of dip coating and spin coating. Glycerol/water solutions were used as model Newtonian liquids, and the coating processes were studied on open cell carbon foams with 10 ...

Nanoscale film structure related to capacitive effects in ethylene-glycol monolayers

Sandro Carrara, Bruno Samori

A large improvement of the electrochemical capacitive detection of ssDNA and antigens by using ethylene-glycol alkanethiol monolayers has been recently demonstrated. Alkanethiol monolayers without ethylene-glycol functionalization do not show the required ...

Effects of base-pair sequence, nicks and gaps on DNA minicircle shapes

Arnaud Amzallag

DNA is a long polymer with the form of a double helix of about two nanometers diameter (2.10-9 meters). It is composed of nucleotides whose sequence carries the information of heredity. The four possible nucleotides have slightly different geometries, and ...
