An Examination of Aerosol Jet‐Printed Surface Roughness and its Impact on the Performance of High‐Frequency Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores aerosol jet‐printed (AJP) surface roughness, its effects on the performance of microwave electronics, and its process contributors. First, an electromagnetic model is vetted for AJP's unique roughness signature. Simulations are built which show process‐induced roughness is as significant as conductor resistivity in driving microwave

Geometry‐Based Scan Curve Analysis: Rapid Method for the Evaluation of Scan Strategies in Powder Bed Fusion

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents rapid evaluation methods for scan strategies in powder bed fusion (PBF) of polymers with a NIR laser as an example for its application. It uses line buffer‐based calculations and point density fields to predict the performance of four different scan strategies. The methods show promising results in laser‐based PBF of polymer samples,

Inverse Design of Conjugated Polymers from Computed Electronic Structure Properties: Model Chemistries of Polythiophenes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Using a diverse set of 100 oligothiophenes, extrapolated oligomer and polymer HOMO, LUMO and HOMO-LUMO gaps are shown to be accurately estimated from the computed values of the trimer HOMO, trimer LUMO and trimer HOMO-LUMO gaps. These simple approximations can be improved further through easy to calculate properties of monomers or small oligomers ...

Surface Chemistry of Polymers

open access: yesKobunshi, 1968
ポリエチレンやポリプロピレン,一般にプラスチックが広大な需要をもつようになるとともに,染色,印刷,接着などの二次加工における困難や,静電気に基く障害などが工業的に重大な問題になってきた。これらはいずれも主として界面化学的な問題で,基本的には高分子物質の表面自由エネルギー(表面張力)の知識をもとにして解決の道を探し出すことができる。一方表面張力は液体の分子間相互作用を表わす熱力学的な物理量の一つで,凝集エネルギー密度を実測することのできない高分子では特別な重要性をもっている。さらにそのなかで高分子性(分子がつながっているという効果)を調べるなら,これは学問的にも興味がある。幸い多くの鎖状高分子は溶融することができるので,その表面張力の分子量依存性,分子構造との関係 ...
