This work overcomes the long‐standing challenge of hydrophilic modification of silicone rubber via a gradient polarity modification strategy. By constructing a hydrophilic interpenetrating network within cured SR, simultaneous surface‐to‐bulk modification is achieved while enabling monitoring through a Eu3+ complex fluorescent tracer.

Self‐Adhesive Conductive Elastomers for Gel‐Free Biopotential Recording
σPOMaC, a self‐adhesive conductive citrate elastomer incorporating PEDOT:PSS and DBSA, enables gel‐free biopotential electrodes with stable conductivity and intrinsic skin adhesion. The composite exhibits low resistivity (∼ 0.02 Ω·cm), robust electrical performance during repeated use, and reliable on‐body ECG acquisition comparable to Ag/AgCl ...

ANALYSIS OF CAUSES WHICH DETERMINE THE DEGRADATION OF CONVEYORS WITH METAL INSERTS [PDF]
The paper aims to analyze the causes that lead to the rapid degradation of the conveyor belts with metal inserts and their removal. Thus, the analysis revealed three main causes, namely the separation of the metal cord inserts from the rubber matrix ...
