Fast Prototyping and Ex Vivo Evaluation of Dissolvable Millineedle Patches Made by Solvent Casting from CO2 Laser Ablated Elastomer Molds

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
CO2 laser ablation, a fast, inexpensive, and reproducible method, is used to create flexible elastomer molds with millimeter‐long cavities for the fabrication of dissolvable polymer needles. Made from PVP, these milli‐needles achieve ≈560 µm penetration into porcine skin, demonstrating their potential for effective transdermal drug delivery.

A Systematic Study of Staphylococcus aureus Biofilm Formation on Thiol‐Ene Polymers: Toward the Development of Microfluidic Bacterial Biofilm Models

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This work presents a systematic characterization of an emerging polymer platform, off‐stoichiometry thiol‐ene, in terms of its ability to support the formation, growth, and metabolic activity of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms. The findings indicate that thiol‐enes promote S.

Aqueous Synthesis of Poly(ethylene glycol)‐Amide‐Norbornene‐Carboxylate for Modular Hydrogel Crosslinking

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
An all aqueous synthesis of poly(ethylene glycol)‐amide‐norbornene‐carboxylate (PEGaNBCA) is developed via reacting carbic anhydride with amino‐terminated PEG. PEGaNBCA is readily crosslinked into hydrogels by click chemistries. PEGaNBCA crosslinked thiol‐norbornene hydrogels are hydrolytically stable but can be rendered hydrolytically labile through ...

Transition Metal Dichalcogenide‐Based Composites in Powder Bed Additive Manufacturing for Electrochemical Applications—A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The robust electrochemical sustainability of additively manufactured high‐performance nanocomposites is substantially dependent on overcoming material selection, process optimization, operational scalability, and design flexibility challenges. Integrating transition metal dichalcogenides into metal‐matrix composites, laser powder bed fusion directly ...

Electrophotographic Powder Application for Surface Functionalization of Polymer Parts with Thin Silver‐Nanoadditivated Bactericidal Layers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Polyamide 12 powder nanoadditivated with laser‐synthesized silver nanoparticles is deposited and sintered on polymer parts via EPA‐PBF‐LB/P. The thin surface coating (140 µm) inhibits E. coli and S. aureus bacteria growth and significantly increases the UV light absorption, whereas the mechanical and thermal properties remain unchanged due to minimal ...

3D Wiring Microelectrodes in a PMMA Microfluidic Device by Vacuum Filling Method

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper proposes a method for fabricating 3D wiring microelectrodes in arbitrary designs within 3D‐printed microfluidics. By attaching a PDMS lid and using vacuum filling, low‐melting‐point alloy (LMA) is introduced into microchannels. This enables the creation of 50 µm microelectrodes, including complex shapes.

Automating Food Drop: The Power of Two Choices for Dynamic and Fair Food Allocation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Food waste and food insecurity are two closely related pressing global issues. Food rescue organizations worldwide run programs aimed at addressing the two problems. In this paper, we partner with a non-profit organization in the state of Indiana that leads \emph{Food Drop}, a program that is designed to redirect rejected truckloads of food away from ...
