First Jump of Microgel: Actuation Speed Enhancement by Elastic Instability

, 2010
Swelling-induced snap-buckling in a 3D micro hydrogel device, inspired by the insect-trapping action of Venus flytrap, makes it possible to generate astonishingly fast actuation.

Thick Underplating and Buoyancy of the Bermuda Swell

Geophysical Research Letters
Abstract Bermuda is an intraplate ocean swell that does not conform to traditional mantle plume theory. Unlike other prominent bathymetric swells, such as Hawaii, it lacks age‐progressive volcanism, a deeply rooted mantle plume, and modern volcanism.

Decay resistance, hardness, water absorption, and thickness swelling of a bagasse fiber/plastic composite [PDF]

BioResources, 2011
The decay resistance, hardness, water absorption, and thickness swelling of a bagasse fiber/polypropylene composite were evaluated. Brown- (Coniophora puteana) and white-rot (Trametes versicolor) fungal treatments were applied for 8, 12, and 16 weeks according to BS 838:1961 with the kolle-flask method.

Adjustment of Coatings Morphology and Particle Distribution of Layered Silicates by Freeze‐Drying for Improved Gas Barriers

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Freeze‐drying of layered silicate is the key to get coatings with superior gas barrier. Freeze‐drying of layered silicates modified with dodecylamine (DDA) is a highly effective technique for the preparation of barrier pigments that significantly mitigate the permeation of oxygen, water vapor, and hydrogen through polymer films containing these ...

Determination of the effects of additives added to pu glue on dimensional stability in fiberboards

Turkish Journal of Forestry, 2022
Today, there is an increasing trend towards the use of forest products in the form of composites, since the use of forest products as a solid material cannot adequately meet the demand and increases the cost of use.

Swelling behaviour of poly(methylmethacrylate) thick resist layers in deep X-ray lithography

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, 2003
The understanding and optimization of lithographic conditions are particularly important for irradiation of thick resist layers in deep X-ray lithography. The causes and consequences of radiation-induced formation and accumulation of gaseous species inside the poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) resist matrix are discussed.

Advancing Research on Biomaterials and Biological Materials with Scanning Electron Microscopy under Environmental and Low Vacuum Conditions

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is discussed as a powerful extension of conventional SEM for life sciences. By combining high‐resolution imaging with variable pressure and humidity, ESEM allows the analysis of untreated biological materials, supports in situ monitoring of hydration‐driven changes, and advances the functional ...
