The fracture toughness of highly-ordered multi-wall carbon-nanotube-reinforced alumina composites is calculated from experimental data on nanoindentation cracking. A combined analytical and numerical model, using cohesive zone models for both matrix cracki ...
The mutual influences of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 and Desulfovibrio desulfuricans subsp. desulfuricans (ATCC 29577) on their adhesion to stainless steel were investigated in batch and column experiments. It was found that P. aeruginosa promoted the adhe ...
The adsorption behavior of poly(amidoamine) dendrimers to mica surfaces was investigated as a function of ionic strength and pH. The conformation and lateral distribution of the adsorbed dendrimers of generations G8 and G10 were obtained ex situ by tapping ...
The assisted transfer of silver ion, Ag+, by complexation of Ag+ with the tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)borate (TPBCl−) anion was studied at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES). The elucidation of the interfacial mechanisms employe ...
The development of the interfacial bond strength as a function of bonding conditions has been investigated in two representative semicrystalline thermoplastics, isotactic polypropylene and polyamide 12. If one side of the interface is well above the meltin ...
The present work focuses on the interfacial mechanical behaviour of a model composite consisting of a solid droplet on a fibre, generally referred to as the microbond test. The interfacial adhesion is derived from the modelling of stress transfer in the mi ...
In this thesis, an original law of adhesion is developed and then coupled to the classical law of unilateral contact with threshold friction, in order to study the phenomenon of fibre/matrix debonding in composite materials. This tribological law is develo ...
A release technique that enables to lift microfabricated structures mechanically off the surface without using wet chemistry is presented. A self-assembled monolayer of dodecyltrichlorosilane forms a very uniform 1.5-nm-thick anti-adhesion coating on the s ...
Research on silicon oxide thin films developed as gas-barrier protection for polymer-based components is reviewed, with attention paid to the relations between (i) coating defects, cohesive strength and internal stress state, and (ii) interfacial interacti ...
A d.c. oxygen glow discharge was used to modify medical-grade poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) to study how surface chemistry and hydrophilicity influence Pseudomonas aeruginosa adhesion. The effects of plasma exposure time on the resulting surface, including ch ...
