Fast photocurable thiol-ene elastomers with tunable biodegradability, mechanical and surface properties enhance myoblast differentiation and contractile function

open access: yesBioactive Materials, 2021
Biodegradable elastomers are important emerging biomaterials for biomedical applications, particularly in the area of soft-tissue engineering in which scaffolds need to match the physicochemical properties of native tissues.

Automatic Transmission Fluids in Electrified Transmissions: Compatibility with Elastomers

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The location of the electric motor (EM) inside the transmission in an electric vehicle requires the compatibility of the automatic transmission fluids (ATFs) with the materials of the EM and the transmission.

Mechanical switching of ferro-electric rubber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
At the A to C transition, smectic elastomers have recently been observed to undergo $\sim$35% spontaneous shear strains. We first explicitly describe how strains of up to twice this value could be mechanically or electrically induced in Sm-$C$ elastomers

Hydrogen bonded supramolecular elastomers : correlating hydrogen bonding strength with morphology and rheology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A series of six low molecular weight elastomers with hydrogen bonding end-groups have been designed, synthesised and studied. The poly(urethane) based elastomers all contained essentially the same hard block content (ca.

Finite element implementation of Gent-Gent hyperelastic model for swollen elastomers

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2020
In this study, we conduct finite element implementation of a Gent-Gent hyperelastic model for swollen elastomers. To this end, an inhomogeneous field theory for swollen elastomers is extended using the Gent-Gent model, which includes the effects of ...

Data for effects of lanthanum complex on the thermo-oxidative aging of natural rubber

open access: yesData in Brief, 2015
Novel mixed antioxidants composed of antioxidant IPPD and lanthanum (La) complex were added as a filler to form natural rubber (NR) composites. By mechanical testing, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR ...

Fluoridated elastomers: in vivo versus in vitro fluoride release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
OBJECTIVES: To compare (i) the in vivo release of fluoride from fluoridated elastomers to the in vitro release, and (ii) the residual fluoride content of the elastomers after 1 week in the mouth with and without fluoride toothpaste and mouthrinse ...

Measurement of the accuracy of dental working casts using a coordinate measuring machine [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled, 2016
Background/Aim: Dental impressions present a negative imprint of intraoral tissues of a patient which is, by pouring in gypsum, transferred extraorally on the working cast.
