Actuating and Sensing Composites of Liquid Crystal Elastomers and Poly(ionic liquid)s

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic conductive, mechanically tough, flexible, and stretchable filaments of a composite material comprising a liquid crystal elastomer and a poly(ionic liquid) are produced through 3D printing, which exhibit large actuation strain under stimulation and electrical resistance variation in response to deformation or environmental condition changes. Their

Thermal Properties of Polyurethanes. Enthalpies and Entropies of Fusion [PDF]

Polymer Journal, 1970
Enthalpies and entropies of fusion have been determined for two series of semicrystalline polyurethanes. The H series is based on 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate and various α, ω-diols containing from 2 to 10 methylene units. The DP series is based on 4,4′-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate and various α, ω-diols containing from 2 to 10 methylene units ...

A CALPHAD-Informed Enthalpy Method for Multicomponent Alloy Systems with Phase Transitions

Modelling
Solid–liquid phase transitions of metals and alloys play an important role in many technical processes. Therefore, corresponding numerical process simulations need adequate models.

First-order transitions in glasses and melts induced by solid superclusters nucleated and melted by homogeneous nucleation instead of surface melting

, 2019
Supercooled liquids give rise, by homogeneous nucleation, to solid superclusters acting as building blocks of glass, ultrastable glass, and glacial glass phases before being crystallized.

BACH, a Bayesian Optimization Protocol for Accurate Coarse‐Grained Parameterization of Organic Liquids

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present a fully automated Bayesian optimization (BO) protocol for the parameterization of nonbonded interactions in coarse‐grain CG force fields (BACH). Using experimental thermophysical data, we apply the protocol to a broad range of liquids, spanning linear, branched, and unsaturated hydrocarbons, esters, triglycerides, and water.
