UV-cured Epoxy for Adhesion in Steel Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites

Basile Golaz

This work addresses the development of composite materials that contain metallic load-bearing cords with the aim of combining outstanding mechanical performance with added functionality, including electrical conductivity, data transmission, and temperature ...

UV-curable epoxy primer for adhesion in steel reinforced polymer composites

Véronique Michaud, Basile Golaz

In continuous composite production, for example the continuous impregnation of steel wires or cords with a thermoplastic polyurethane matrix, an ideal and cost-effective solution to improve interfacial adhesion and durability would be to deposit and cure a ...

Fast-curing coatings for adhesion promotion between metallic oxides and thermoplastic polyurethane

Véronique Michaud, Basile Golaz

The cost-effective production of high-performance and durable steel reinforced thermoplastic composites requires improvement of the adhesion encountered at the interface between metallic substrates (galvanized steel) and a thermoplastic elastomer (TPU). Co ...

Piezoresistive properties of low-firing temperature thick-films on steel sensors

Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Caroline Jacq, Giancarlo Corradini, Niklaus Johner

Thick-film materials are very advantageous for piezoresistive pressure and force sensors because of ease of processing, reliability and low cost. The standard substrate material used with thick-film technology for sensing is alumina, but its elastic modulu ...

A global model study of ozone enhancement during the August 2003 heat wave in Europe

The European summer of 2003 was characterised by intense heat, prolonged isolation and suppressed ventilation of the boundary layer which, combined with large anthropogenic emissions and strong fires, resulted in a build up of an unprecedentedly high and l ...

High performance thick-film pressure sensors on steel

Peter Ryser, Sebastien Martinerie, Thomas Maeder, Caroline Jacq, Giancarlo Corradini

The aim of this work is to examine the possibility of high performance pressure sensors based on piezoresistive thick films deposited on steel membranes, which combine the performance advantage of thin-film sensors (high-strength steel substrates, assembly ...
