Physical Properties and Transmitted Sunlight of Polyvinyl Chloride/ZnO Nanocomposites Films
Journal of Kufa-Physics, 2022 The optical properties of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and PVC/Zinc Oxide (ZnO) films were considered with different amounts of ZnONPs (0.001, 0.002, 0.003, 0.004 and 0.005) g.

Hybrid Metal–Carbon Ink for Printed Stretchable Temperature Sensors
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.We prepare conductive inks for temperature sensing with silver flakes and carbon or graphite flakes in a silicone elastomer matrix. Silver dominates the temperature‐dependent conductivity, while the carbon filler network ensures the stability of the conductive pathways and retains function under strain.

Miniature Soft Robot With Magnetically Reprogrammable Surgical Functions
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Miniature soft robots have great prospects to revolutionize minimally invasive treatments. Here we present a miniature soft robot, which can be reprogrammed to perform five surgical functionalities with six‐degrees‐of‐freedom motions. This soft robot can prospectively make minimally invasive surgery considerably safer and painless, and enable ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Stacked nanoflake assembly (SNA) membranes can oscillate autonomously, offering opportunities for soft actuation and energy harvesting. This work uncovers the physical mechanism behind the sustained oscillation of SNA membranes in gradient humidity and identifies three governing dimensionless parameters, enabling rational design for optimizing SNA ...

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.

Biotreatment effects in films and blends of PVC/PCL previously treated with heat
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2005 Studies were carried out on biomodification and the pre-heat (130(0)C) influence on Poly (vinyl chloride) / Poly (epsilon-caprolactone) films. The results showed that heat pre-treatment improved the biomodification of PVC films, but it inhibited the ...
