Cellular biocomposites from polylactide and microfibrillated cellulose

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, John Christopher Plummer, Razvan Cristian Neagu, Carole Boissard

This paper describes the production of "green" microfibrillated cellulose-reinforced polylactide cellular biocomposites using a wet mixing technique combined with super-critical carbon dioxide foaming. The effect of composition on the morphology, density a ...

Lamination of LTCC at low pressure and moderate temperature using screen-printed adhesives

Paul Muralt, Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Caroline Jacq, Bo Jiang, Fabrizio Vecchio

In this work, we investigate a new method of low-pressure lamination of low-temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) tapes, by pre-coating with specially-formulated adhesive layers. This allows fabrication of intricate structures that would be destroyed by high ...

Squaric Acid Mediated Synthesis and Biological Activity of a Library of Linear and Hyperbranched Poly(Glycerol)-Protein Conjugates

Harm-Anton Klok, Frederik Roman Wurm

Polymer-protein conjugates generated from side chain functional synthetic polymers are attractive because they can be easily further modified with, for example, labeling groups or targeting ligands. The residue specific modification of proteins with side c ...

A systematic methodology for the synthesis of unit process chains using Life Cycle Assessment and Industrial Ecology Principles

François Maréchal, Léda Gerber, Jérôme Mayer

The integration of environmental impacts in the conceptual process design procedure can be achieved by combining Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tools with flowsheeting software and process integration techniques. However, current LCI databases assume a given ...

Protein extraction from biomass in a bioethanol refinery - Possible dietary applications: use as animal feed and potential extension to human consumption

Edgard Gnansounou, Simone Chiesa

The economy of the production of lignocellulosic ethanol could be supported by the simultaneous use of different components of the biomass other than sugars. Among these, protein is present at high concentration in leaves and is a candidate for different p ...

Comparing and modeling distributed control strategies for miniature self-assembling robots

Alcherio Martinoli, William Christopher Evans, Grégory Mermoud

We propose two contrasting approaches to the scalable distributed control of a swarm of self-assembling miniaturized robots, specifically the formation of chains of a desired length: (1) a deterministic controller in which robots communicate with each othe ...

"Functional Poly(ethylene glycol)": PEG-Based Random Copolymers with 1,2-Diol Side Chains and Terminal Amino Functionality

Frederik Roman Wurm

A series of poly(ethylene glycol-co-isopropylidene glyceryl glycidyl ether) (P(EO-co-IGG)) random copolymers with different fractions of 1,2-isopropylidene glyceryl glycidyl ether (IGG) units was synthesized. After acidic hydrolysis a new type of "function ...

Pathchecker: An RFID application for tracing products in Supply-chains

Serge Vaudenay, Khaled Ouafi

In this paper, we present an application of RFIDs for supply-chain management. In our application, we consider two types of readers. On one part, we have readers that will mark tags at given points. After that, these tags can be checked by another type of ...

Combining JADE and Repast for the Complex Simulation of Enterprise Value-Adding Networks

Rémy Glardon, Min-Jung Yoo

This paper describes how to combine the JADE agent platform with Repast-provided simulation functions for rapidly developing ail environment for the simulation of complex agent model. The main motivation collies from our requirements concerning the simulat ...
