Material Selection and Geometric Design for Few‐filament Shape Memory Polymer Yarns for Force Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A custom shape memory polymer material selection process relates quantitative application criteria (e.g., compression garment yarns) to material characterization information. The selected materials are manufactured into yarn geometries, which expand the design space by creating structural stress‐strain profiles beyond the nominal material stress‐strain

Surface Modification of Polypropylene Nonwovens to Improve Adhesion to Elastomers

open access: yes, 2009
This study addresses how one can use blending, grafting and UV radiation techniques to make polar or hydrophilic polypropylene (PP) to overcome the shortcomings of the inert (hydrophobic) nature of the PP surface.
