Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Viscoelastic Modeling of Stress Relaxation in Model High‐Performance Covalent Adaptable Networks

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Covalent adaptable networks, often referred to as vitrimers, contain a certain fraction of bonds that are able to exchange with other bonds. The ability of this bond exchange to relax stress or result in flow of the material depends on the concentration and specific concentration of these bonds in ways that can be quantified.

Design and Development of a Modular Ballistic Pendulum for High‐Impulse Measurement in Contact and Near‐Field Explosive Loading

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measuring impulse from explosive charges in contact and near‐field configurations presents practical challenges due to wide variation in impulse magnitude. Ballistic pendula are widely used for impulse measurement, but many existing designs are limited to narrow operating envelopes or are poorly suited to repeated contact testing and tamped ...

Vickers Microhardness as a Viable Mechanical Property Measurement Technique for High Explosive Materials

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
There are multiple drivers for the development of reliable mechanical property techniques for high explosive (HE) samples, particularly smaller HE samples. While Vickers microhardness is a commonly used technique for mechanical characterization in metals and other materials, there has been little work using this technique for HE materials, particularly

Application of Circular Economy Principles to Power Generation: Extending the Life of A Hydropower Plant by Pumped Hydro Energy Storage

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The application of circular economy, which aims to maximize efficiency and reduce waste, to renewable energy sources necessitates, given the intermittent nature of the latter, robust energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability and avoid wasting energy.
