3D spacers enhance flow kinetics in resin transfer molding with woven fabrics

Véronique Michaud, Damiano Salvatori, Baris Çaglar

Impregnation time in Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) is directly proportional to resin viscosity and inversely proportional to fabric permeability, limiting the use of high-viscosity resins with conventional reinforcements. In this study, we show how to reduc ...

Continuous fiber thermoplastic composites are potential substitutes of steel in structural automotive components, since they combine fiber strength and rigidity with ductility, potential recyclability and low density of the thermoplastic (TP) matrix. Resin ...

Durability and fatigue performance of a typical cold-curing structural adhesive in bridge construction

Maria Savvilotidou

The science of adhesives and adhesion for structural connections has undergone significant development during the last few decades - and successfully so in a wide variety of industries. Recent applications of structural bonding are being adopted in the con ...

Thermal and damping behaviour of magnetic shape memory alloy composites

Véronique Michaud, Susanne Glock

Single crystals of ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (MSMA) exhibit magnetic field and stress induced strains via energy dissipating twinning. Embedding single crystalline MSMA particles into a polymer matrix could thus produce composites with enhanced ene ...

The feasibility of self-healing epoxy matrices using the same chemistry as the matrix material, namely a standard epoxy-amine system, is demonstrated. The two-component self-healing system is encapsulated in core-shell structures using standard in situ cur ...

Use of red autofluorescence for monitoring prodiginine biosynthesis

Paul Guichard

Prodigiosin-like pigments or prodiginines (PdGs) are promising drugs owing to their reported antitumor, antibiotic, and immunosuppressive activities. These natural compounds are produced by several bacteria, including Streptomyces coelicolor and Serratia m ...

Photo-polymerized epoxy primer for adhesion improvement at thermoplastics/metallic wires interfaces

Véronique Michaud, Basile Golaz

We report results on the development of an innovative fast-curing coupling method using a UV-curable epoxy primer based on a cycloaliphatic di-epoxide resin to bond metallic wires and a thermoplastic polyurethane matrix. The curing kinetics of the primer a ...

Tailored Capsule Based Self-Healing for Epoxy Matrix Composites

Sam Neuser

Self-healing materials are a novel class of materials able to repair structural or, more generally, functional damage to a part. They hence have the potential to improve reliability and cost effectiveness, because failure or loss of functionality may be po ...

Notch Signaling in Pigment Cells and Generation of Mouse Models for Ocular Diseases

Bhushan Sarode

Cellular signaling mediated by Notch receptors results in coordinated regulation of cell growth, survival and differentiation. In melanocytes, Notch signaling is essential for the maintenance of melanocytes and the melanocyte stem cell population. Whereas, ...
