Journal of Chemical Education, 1981 Abstract Rubber elasticity may be operationally defined as very large deformability with essentially complete recoverability. In order for a material to exhibit this type of elasticity, three molecular conditions must be met: (1) the material must consist of polymeric chains, (2) the chains must be joined into a network structure, and (3) the ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A thermo‐responsive poly(2‐oxazoline)‐based injectable formulation is developed to modulate intraocular pressure (IOP) in both normal and hypotonic eyes. By adjusting the PEG content, the aggregation behavior is finely tuned, enabling IOP elevation without long‐term deposition.

From shifting agriculture to sustainable rubber agroforestry systems (jungle rubber) in Indonesia: a history of innovations processes. [PDF]
The aim of this chapter is to describe changes in the Indonesian jungle rubber system from the angle of the production of innovation by farmers themselves (indigenous knowledge) and the process of integration of external technical innovations in an ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Electrospun tubular scaffolds from novel PBCE‐based copolyesters and blends were designed as candidates for small‐diameter vascular grafts. They combine defect‐free architecture, blood‐compatible surfaces, and mechanical properties comparable to native vessels.

Fully Wireless and Flexible Valves for Multiplexed and Prolonged Intravesical Liquid Release
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A fundamental mechanism for the simultaneous control of multiple magnetic valves is reported in a miniature soft robotic patch for intravesical drug delivery, enabling fully wireless and programmable liquid release. Integrated with a bioadhesive interface and induction‐coupling‐based liquid volume sensing, the soft robotic patch is promising to enable ...

The viscoelastic properties of rubber under a complex loading
, 2010 PhDThis thesis aims to explore the effect of pre-strain on the viscoelastic behaviour of rubber materials. There are various conflicting theories in the literature regarding the strain dependence and resulting anisotropy of the viscoelastic behaviour ...

Long‐Term Hydrophilic, Anti‐Clotting, and Anti‐Fibrotic Dynamic Covalent Silicone‐Based Biomaterials
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Dynamic covalent crosslinking of a Schiff‐base silicone elastomer with hydrazide‐functionalized polymers is demonstrated to improve the long‐term hydrophilicity as well as the anti‐fouling and anti‐clotting properties of PDMS implants. The hydrazone‐functionalized material prevents hydrophobic recovery, resists clotting, and significantly reduces ...

Rubber crumb used in concrete to provide freeze-thaw protection
, 2015 This research has examined the use of rubber crumb, used as an additive to concrete that would provide maximum freeze-thaw protection to concrete. The rubber crumb as used in the paper was divided into five batches, with increasing particle size, graded
