Highly stretchable ionically crosslinked acrylate elastomers based on polyelectrolyte complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Dynamic bonds are a powerful approach to tailor the mechanical properties of elastomers and introduce shape-memory, self-healing, and recyclability. Among the library of dynamic crosslinks, electrostatic interactions among oppositely charged ions have ...

Ultimate swelling described by limiting chain extensibility of swollen elastomers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this study, we study ultimate swelling characterized by limiting chain extensibility of swollen elastomers. Limiting chain extensibility is introduced into the Flory–Rehner theory using the Arruda–Boyce eight chain model and the Gent phenomenological ...

Innovative Elastomers with Antimicrobial Activity May Decrease Infection Risks during Milking

open access: yesPathogens, 2023
Contagious pathogens are very costly to dairy herds, and they may have zoonotic and reverse-zoonotic potentials and may contribute to the spread of antimicrobial resistance. One of the most important risk factors for spreading these infections is milking,
