Equibiaxal test of elastomers

open access: yes, 2012
The aim of this work is to set up nonlinear viscohyperelastic material parameters of elastomers for numerical finite element simulation (FEM). The study is focused on equibiaxial elongation by using the "bubble inflation" technique.

Directionally Cracked Mesoporous Colloidal Films by Manipulating Notch Angles and Their Anisotropic Wicking Behavior

open access: yesSmall Structures
Wicking in porous media, such as the spreading of ink on paper or the absorption of moisture by fabric, occurs when water interacts with hydrophilic porous materials through capillary action and evaporation.

Tattooing Plastics with Reversible and Irreversible Encryption

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2020
Self‐healing materials are explored for restoring mechanical, electrical, and chemical properties. Inspired by the process of tattooing on human skin, a method for engraving non‐permanent or permanent messages on plastics is developed.

Free-energy density functions for nematic elastomers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The recently proposed neo-classical theory for nematic elastomers is a molecular-statistical generalization of classical Gaussian network theory. The resulting free-energy density predicts the phenomenon of soft elasticity—the ability of elastomers to ...

Enhancing mechanical properties of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers with 1,3-trimethylene carbonate, epsilon-caprolactone and L-lactide copolymers via soft segment crystallization

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2011
Multiblock thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers based on random and triblock copolymers were synthesized and studied. Dihydroxyl-terminated random copolymers were prepared by ring opening copolymerization of ε-caprolactone (CL) and 1,3-trimethylene
