Improvement of Biocompatibility of Silicone Elastomer by Surface Modification [PDF]
γ-Methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (γ-MPS) was grafted to silicone due to emulsion polymerization to induce Si-OH groups, in order to provide silicone with bioactivity spontaneous deposition of apatite in body fluid and to improve cytocompatibility ...

The effect of postmastectomy radiation therapy on breast implants. Material analysis on silicone and polyurethane prosthesis [PDF]
The pathogenic mechanism underlying capsular contracture is still unknown. It is certainly a multifactorial process, resulting from human body reaction, biofilm activation, bacteremic seeding, or silicone exposure.

Silicon Nitride in Silicon Photonics [PDF]
The silicon nitride (Si3N4) planar waveguide platform has enabled a broad class of low-loss planar-integrated devices and chip-scale solutions that benefit from transparency over a wide wavelength range (400–2350 nm) and fabrication using wafer-scale processes.

Silicon – single molecule – silicon circuits
Single-molecule circuits using silicon contacts are robust, conductive, controllable, and highly reproducible in blinking experiments, with enhanced conductance in break-junctions owing to residual dangling bonds.

Rigidity of silicone substrates controls cell spreading and stem cell differentiation. [PDF]
The dependences of spreading and differentiation of stem cells plated on hydrogel and silicone gel substrates on the rigidity and porosity of the substrates have recently been a subject of some controversy.

Lysine-Based Silicone Surfactants
Highly efficient silicone surfactants are typically based on polyether hydrophiles. As part of a program to increase the natural content of silicones, we describe the synthesis of silicone surfactants with amino acid hydrophiles (cysteine, arginine, and ...
