Viscoelasticity‐Induced Controllable Periodic Meso‐Textures of Liquid Crystal Polymers in Additive Manufacturing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Viscoelasticity‐driven instabilities are harnessed to create tunable, periodic textures in 3D‐printed liquid crystalline polymers. This study illustrates how processing parameters control these spontaneous meso‐scale patterns. These unique structural architectures unlock new possibilities for functional devices, ranging from photonic components to ...

Characterization of enalapril maleate: An approach using thermoanalytical, thermokinetic and spectroscopic techniques [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society
Enalapril maleate is a widely used drug for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Its mechanism of action is to inhibit the angiotensin-converting enzyme selectively. Therefore, it is metabolized to enalaprilat by liver cells.

Quasi-isothermal modulated DSC as a valuable characterisation method for soft tissue biomaterial crosslinking reactions

Bioactive Materials, 2020
Glutaraldehyde (Glut) is an extensively used sterilant and fixative for the crosslinking of natural soft tissue biomaterials like bovine pericardium (BP) to provide stability and is required for its application in vivo.

Electroactive influence of ferroelectric nanofillers on polyamide 11 matrix properties [PDF]

, 2007
Barium titanate ceramic powders have been incorporated in polyamide 11 to form homogeneous dispersion of particles in the matrix. Barium titanate/polyamide 11 nanocomposites have been synthesized using a solvent casting method with ultrasonic stirring to

Adaptive 4D‐Printed Vascular Stents With Low‐Temperature‐Activated and Intelligent Deployment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microarchitected coronary artery stents were fabricated using a polycaprolactone (PCL)‐based shape memory polymer (SMP) composite via projection micro‐stereolithography (PµSL) 4D printing. By incorporating diethyl phthalate (DEP) as a plasticizer, the thermal transition temperature (Ttran) was modulated to about 37°C, enabling rapid and autonomous ...

Monitoring of butter and animal fat oxidation stability by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)

Mljekarstvo, 2005
Oxidation of fat is one of the basic reactions which causes the depletion of butter and animal fat quality as well as other products containing them. Since the most of reaction products of fat oxidation are harmful for consumers' health, inadequate and ...

Introducing Pure Calcium Orthophosphate Gels and Aerogels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The synthesis of calcium phosphate‐based gels and aerogels is reported, which exhibit highly porous structures built up of networks of nanoparticles. In case of amorphous aerogels, this leads to yet unmatched specific BET surface areas, making these materials especially interesting for biomedical applications.
