Homogenization of a system of elastic and reaction-diffusion equations modelling plant cell wall biomechanics [PDF]

, 2015
In this paper we present a derivation and multiscale analysis of a mathematical model for plant cell wall biomechanics that takes into account both the microscopic structure of a cell wall coming from the cellulose microfibrils and the chemical reactions

Impact of Processing Parameters on the Morphology and Performance of PE/PA6/EVOH Blends

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Precise processing conditions enable the utilization of all components in multilayer films, resulting in improved morphology and mechanical properties. ABSTRACT This study employs a stepwise approach to investigate the influence of processing conditions and blend composition on the morphology and mechanical properties of immiscible polymer blends.

Fused Deposition Modeling of Industrial Waste LDPE‐Polystyrene Blends: Comparing Low and Medium Melt Flow Index of LDPE Waste

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of the upcycling of industrial LDPE waste via fused deposition modeling (FDM). ABSTRACT This study explores the potential of additive manufacturing (AM) to upcycle industrial waste low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) by investigating the effect of LDPE waste's melt flow index (MFI) on the printability of LDPE/polystyrene (PS) blends via ...

Bioinspired Ultrastrong and Ion‐Selective Gel Electrolytes by Interfacial Coacervation for High‐Performance Lithium‐Metal Batteries

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
An ultrastrong, hierarchically nanoporous gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) was fabricated via poly(ionic liquid)‐induced interfacial coacervation of cellulose nanofibrils. Its cascade ion‐conduction network enables dual‐mode Li⁺ transport via nanoconfinement and interstitial hopping. The GPE enables stable cycling of high mass loading battery (LiFePO₄, 16

The tight skin mouse: demonstration of mutant fibrillin-1 production and assembly into abnormal microfibrils [PDF]

, 1993
Mice carrying the Tight skin (Tsk) mutation harbor a genomic duplication within the fibrillin-1 (Fbn 1) gene that results in a larger than normal in-frame Fbn 1 transcript.
