Using Secondary Air Cooling in Blown Film Extrusion: Concept Design and Experimental Study

open access: yes, 2019
The characteristics and the quality of a blown film are strongly influenced by the stretching and simultaneous cooling of the molten polymer within the bubble formation zone. Moreover, the output rate of the process is generally limited by the cooling rates and the stability of the bubble.

Capture, Confine, Characterize: High‐Throughput Dielectrophoresis‐Based Single‐Cell Microfluidics Platform to Analyze Mammalian and Yeast Cells Using Raman Spectroscopy

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Traditional single‐cell analysis lacks the capacity for real‐time monitoring. This study presents Microfluidic dielectrophoretic Arresting System (MiDAS), a microelectrofluidic platform using dielectrophoresis for single‐cell and droplet trapping. MiDAS immobilizes diverse samples (cells, beads, droplets) for optical imaging and Raman spectroscopy. Its
