The combination of ring closure and spatial constraints has a fundamental effect on the statistics of semiflexible polymers such as DNA. However, studies of the interplay between circularity and constraints are scarce and single-molecule experimental data ...
A model for predicting composite material strength degradation under elevated and high temperatures is proposed. This model is based on the morphology of the mixture of materials in different states. The degradation of resin-dominated shear strength can be ...
Mechanical spectroscopy has been used to qualify possible improvements of the mechanical properties of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene-carbon nanotubes (ABS-CNTs) composites. The properties of ABS matrix are first investigated. Two relaxations that mark th ...
Diamond reinforced metals with a diamond content of 55-60 vol.% were made by gas driven liquid metal infiltration. They were characterized with regard to their stiffness, strength and fracture toughness as a function of diamond particle size and matrix all ...
The aim of this thesis is to assess the feasibility of integrating nanoparticles into glass fiber (GF) reinforced isotactic polypropylene (iPP) composites via existing thermoplastic processing routes, and to investigate whether this results in significant ...
Mechanical properties of nanostructures could be remarkably different from their bulk counterparts owing to scale effects, which have attracted considerable research interest in recent years. However, nanomechanics studies are hindered by the difficulties ...
The promise of multifunctionality in polymer nanocomposites, sensor and actuation capabilities, in addition to mechanical strength by controlling dispersion of nano inclusions in the polymer matrix is the driving force of this investigation. The major goal ...
The constant improvement of polymer composite materials has allowed their integration in many industrial fields where their mechanical and chemical properties are apparently attractive. Mixed metal-composite insulators are now increasingly used for high vo ...
The three-component reaction of aryl boronic acids with 1,2,4,5-tetrahydroxybenzene and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene or 4,4-bipyridine leads to the formation of dark-purple boronate ester polymers. Crystallographic analyses show that the polymer strands have ...
In this article, a carbon nanotube (CNT) array-based system combined with a polymer thin film is proposed as an effective drug release device directly at cellular level. The polymeric film embedded in the CNT array is described and characterized in terms o ...
