An Integral Experiment on Polyethylene Using Radiative Capture in Indium Foils in a High Flux D-D Neutron Generator [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
The Department of Nuclear Engineering, University of California Berkeley built a D-D neutron generator called the High Flux Neutron Generator (HFNG). It operates in the range of 100-125 keV of accelerating voltage. The generator produces neutron current of about 10^8 per second. These neutrons have energies between 2.2-2.8 MeV.

Wear Tests of a Potential Biolubricant for Orthopedic Biopolymers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Most wear testing of orthopedic implant materials is undertaken with dilute bovine serum used as the lubricant. However, dilute bovine serum is different to the synovial fluid in which natural and artificial joints must operate. As part of a search for a

The osmotic potential of polyethylene glycol 6000.

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1973
Osmotic potential (psi(s)) of aqueous solutions of polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG-6000) was curvilinearly related to concentration. At given concentrations, psi(s) increased linearly with temperature. The effects of concentration and temperature on psi(s)

Mechanical Metamaterials for Bioengineering: In Vitro, Wearable, and Implantable Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 7, April 2025.
Mechanical metamaterials with engineered architectures exhibit properties that differ from and greatly surpass those of their constituent bulk materials. This review summarizes the applications of mechanical metamaterials in bioengineering, focusing on advances in the last 5 years.

Comparative investigations of surface instabilities ("sharkskin") of a linear and a long-chain branched polyethylene [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
An experimental study of the physical origin and the mechanisms of the sharkskin instability is presented. Extrusion flows through a slit die are studied for two materials: a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and a low density polyethylene (LDPE).

Ultrastrong, Ultraflexible, and Ultratransparent Polyethylene Cellular Nanofilms [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Light weight and mechanically robust cellular polymer nanofilms provide materials solutions to many cutting-edge technologies, such as high-flux membrane filtration, ultrathin flexible energy storage, and skin-conformable devices. However, it remains challenging to fabricate hand manipulatable cellular polymer nanofilms for use as self-standing ...

Tailoring the Properties of 2D Nanomaterial‐Polymer Composites for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding and Energy Storage by 3D Printing—A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 7, April 2025.
This article critically reviews the recent advances in the development of nanomaterial‐based inks derived from 2D nanomaterials and how the addition of 2D nanomaterials alters the rheology of different polymers for 3D printing. The review further explores the application of 3D‐printed structures in the electronics, sensor, and energy sectors.

Extremely High Thermal Conductivity of Aligned Bulk Carbon Nanotube-Polyethylene Composites [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
The poor thermal conductivity of bulk polymers may be enhanced by combining them with high thermal conductivity materials such as carbon nanotubes. Different from random doping, we find that the aligned carbon nanotube-polyethylene composites (ACPCs) has a high thermal conductivity by non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations.

Porous polyethylene and proplast [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
A comparative animal study showed that, after implantation in skull defects in guinea pigs, porous high-density polyethylene (PHDPE) was substantially better anchored in the bone than Proplast, and had greater stability of form and structure. In Proplast,

Bottle-grade polyethylene furanoate from ring-opening polymerisation of cyclic oligomers

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Polyethylene furanoate (PEF) represents a promising renewable resource-based bioplastic as replacement for fossil-based polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with improved material properties.
