Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Ultrasoft silicone elastomers often sacrifice surface functionality for mechanical compliance. In Mold Star, low‐molecular‐weight species form a dispersed phase that weakens the network and passivates the surface. Solvent extraction removes this phase, unexpectedly improving both extensibility and metallization performance, enabling conductive ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Residual magnetization induces pronounced mechanical anisotropy in ultra‐soft magnetorheological elastomers, shaping deformation and actuation even without external magnetic fields. This study introduces a computational‐experimental framework integrating magneto‐mechanical coupling into topology optimization for designing soft magnetic actuators with ...

DETERMINING THE OPERATING TIME OF THE ENGINE OILS [PDF]
Journal of the Egyptian Society of Tribology, 2010 The environment of Arab countries suffers from the relatively high concentration of dust in air, due to the lack of rain and the vast area of desert, which causes an increase in wear rate of engines. Consequently, the period of lubricating oil change has
