Surface modification of titanium with thermally treated polydimethylsiloxane coating and the effect on resin to titanium adhesion

open access: yes, 2015
In this study, titanium surface modification by a thermal treatment using a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coating was investigated. The surfaces of four titaniumsamples were surface treated by polishing, sandblasting, and coating with a PDMSwith a ...

A study of laser surface treatment in bonded repair of composite aircraft structures [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
Surface pre-treatment is one of the key processes in bonded repair of aircraft carbon fibre reinforced polymer composites. This paper investigates the surface modification of physical and chemical properties by laser ablation and conventional polish ...

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Surface Analysis of 316 Stainless Steel Treated with Cold Atmospheric Plasma

open access: yes, 2019
The surface of 316 stainless steel has been modified using cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) to increase the surface free energy (by cleaning the and chemically activating the surface)IN preparation for subsequent processes such as painting, coating or ...

Mechanisms for surface potential decay on fluorinated epoxy in high voltage DC applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Epoxy resin has been extensively used for decades as an insulation material in high voltage transmission systems. However, this insulation material does suffer from bulk and surface charging when used as insulating spacer, mainly in high voltage DC ...

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Influence of laser surface texturing on surface microstructure and mechanical properties of adhesive joined steel sheets

open access: yes, 2009
This work discusses the resultant microstructure of laser surface treated galvanised steel and the mechanical properties of adhesively bonded surfaces therein. The surface microstructure obtained at laser intensities between 170 and 1700 MW cm 22 exhibit

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Plasma-activated polymer films for mesenchymal stem cell differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a biomaterial utilized for spine, orthopedic and trauma implants. Its inertness prevents osseointegration, so that coatings with titanium or hydroxyapatite are required for load-bearing PEEK implants.
