Influence of micro-patterned support properties and interfacial polymerization conditions on performance of patterned thin-film composite membranes

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Cédric Karel J Van Goethem

Patterned membranes prepared via spray-modified non -solvent induced phase separation (s-NIPS) have successfully shown enhanced fluxes and better fouling control, thanks to the increased surface area and high fluid shear at the membrane/feed interface. The ...

Supramolecular Polymer Brushes Grown by Surface-Initiated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization from Cucurbit[7]uril-based Non-Covalent Initiators

Harm-Anton Klok, Friederike Katharina Metze, Irene Filipucci

Polymer brushes are densely grafted, chain end-tethered assemblies of polymers that can be produced via surface-initiated polymerization. Typically, this is accomplished using initiators or chain transfer agents that are covalently attached to the substrat ...

Recycling of Bottle Grade PET: Influence of HDPE Contamination on the Microstructure and Mechanical Performance of 3D Printed Parts

Véronique Michaud, Yves Leterrier, Adrien Julien Demongeot, Joanne Hélène Vaucher-Joset

As part of a project that aims to provide people with disabilities with simple assistive devices in Colombia, the possibility of creating a PET filament that can be printed by Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) from beverage bottle waste was investigated, wi ...

Investigation and modeling of odors release from membrane holes on daily overlay in a landfill and its impact on landfill odor control

Sami Rtimi

In the present work, we studied the NH(3)and H2S odor fluxes between the exposed working area and the HDPE covering film holes of the daily overlay in an actual landfill site with a daily operating area of 1600 m(2)in Hangzhou, China. We showed that the od ...

Grafted semiconductors on PE-films leading to bacterial inactivation: Synthesis, characterization and mechanism

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi

This study reports the colloidal preparation FeOx, TiO2 and FeOx-TiO2 grafted on polyethylene (PE) films leading to bacterial inactivation. A fast bacterial inactivation was attained by the FeOx-TiO2 compared to the FeOx-PE film due to the interfacial char ...

Minimally Invasive Photopolymerization In Intervertebral Disc Tissue Cavities

Dominique Pioletti, Christophe Moser, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Andreas Schmocker, Azadeh Khoushabi

Photopolymerized hydrogels are commonly used for a broad range of biomedical applications. As long as the polymer volume is accessible, gels can easily be hardened using light illumination. However, in clinics, especially for minimally invasive surgery, it ...

Multi-Scale Modeling Of Photopolymerization For Medical Hydrogel-Implant Design

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Andreas Schmocker, Azadeh Khoushabi, Salma Farahi

We report on the modeling of a photopolymerizable hydrogel and its application as a replacement of the interior of the intervertebral disc (so called Nucleus Pulposus). The hydrogel is initially injected in its liquid form and then photopolymerized via a s ...
