Tailoring the performance of nanocellulose-based multilayer-barrier paperboard using biodegradable-thermoplastics, pigments, and plasticizers

In this work a multilayer barrier paperboard was produced in a roll-to-roll process by slot-die coating of nanocellulose (microfibrillated cellulose or carboxymethylated cellulose nanofibrils) followed by extrusion coating of biodegradable thermoplastics ( ...

Algal cellulose, production and potential use in plastics: Challenges and opportunities

Christian Ludwig, Horst Pick, Enio Daniel Zanchetta, Tobias Borgmeyer, Adrian Pulgarin

The development of new biodegradable plastic materials from renewable sources is a major challenge for plastic industries to provide sustainable alternatives to petroleum plastic. Bio-based plastics are generally obtained from photosynthetic biomass such a ...

The Effect of Material Fresh Properties and Process Parameters on Buildability and Interlayer Adhesion of 3D Printed Concrete

The advent of digital concrete fabrication calls for advancing our understanding of the interaction of 3D printing with material rheology and print parameters, in addition to developing new measurement and control techniques. Thixotropy is the main challen ...

Supported photocatalysts for model pollutant degradation and bacterial inactivation

Laura Victoria Suárez Murillo

Water quality and bacterial infections are directly related to human health and wellbeing, thus waste water treatment is a necessary procedure for avoiding disturbances to ecosystems and for assuring human health. Furthermore, bacterial contamination in wa ...

Small, fast, and tough: Shrinking down integrated elastomer transducers

Herbert Shea, Samuel Rosset

We review recent progress in miniaturized dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs), sensors, and energy harvesters. We focus primarily on configurations where the large strain, high compliance, stretchability, and high level of integration offered by dielectr ...

Polylactic acid as a biodegradable material for all-solution-processed organic electronic devices

Nico de Rooij, Danick Briand, Andres Felipe Vasquez Quintero, Giorgio Mattana, Alexis Pierre Henri Marette

In this paper we report on the fabrication of spin-coated biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) thin films to be used as substrates for the realisation of all-solution-processed organic electronic devices. The full mechanical and electrical characterisation ...

A facile strategy for the modification of polyethylene substrates with non-fouling, bioactive poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) brushes

Harm-Anton Klok, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Brian Pullin

This manuscript reports a facile strategy for the modification of polyethylene, a widely used biomaterial, with a thin non-biofouling coating that can act as a platform to introduce biochemical cues to control and direct, e.g., cell adhesion and proliferat ...

Couches minces nanoporeuses pour la réalisation de dispositifs optiques

Gaëtan Wicht

The physical-chemical properties of polymer films can be modified by embedding inorganic materials (e. g. inorganic nanoparticles) into the polymer matrix. Depending both on the material properties (e. g. nanoparticles concentration) and on the fabrication ...

Direct polymer patterning by high energy reactive ion beam through stencil masks

Jürgen Brugger, Andreea Veronica Savu, Oscar Vazquez Mena

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a polymer with remarkable physico-chemical properties which has been used for membrane and biomedical applications [1]. This fluorpolymer is however difficult or cost- inhibiting to pattern with conventional methods with h ...
