Mechano‐Optical Behavior During Processing of PolyCannabidiol Terephthalate: A Biobased, High‐Tg Thermoplastic

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Hemp‐extracted cannabidiol is used as‐is to synthesize polycannabidiol terephthalate, a non‐food, bio‐based engineering plastic with Tg 156°C and stretchability up to 1100%. Process–structure–property maps from real‐time drying and mechano‐optical analysis inform future industrial film production for a range of applications currently served by PET ...

Application of Non‐Isothermal Network Theory With Curved‐Channel Element Characteristics to Predict Melt Conveying in High‐Performance Single‐Screw Extruders

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a fast and accurate calculation tool to predict conveying of polymer melts in single‐screw extruders. Integrating generalized sub‐models into network theory allows to represent the complex screw shapes and material behavior more realistically. Tests on an industrial extruder show close agreement with experiments, outperforming older

Macroscopic Convective Fluid Flows Arising From Binding of Ions and Small Molecules to Proteins

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The interaction of ions or small molecules with proteins causes convective flows due to the displacement of water from the hydration shell. As shown, the replacement of the nickel ion removed from urease by EDTA pre‐treatment results in binding‐induced convective fluid flow.

Steady‐State and Dynamic Behavior of Geometry‐Tunable Microfluidic Passive Flow Regulators

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Passive microfluidic flow regulators exhibit geometry‐dependent dynamic behavior, where channel width governs the resistance–compliance interactions within the system. Narrow channels produce faster responses with higher bandwidth, while wider channels yield slower responses and stronger attenuation.

Shear‐Responsive Red Blood Cell Carriers for Targeted Drug Delivery to Constricted Arteries

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Red blood cells are harnessed as mechanoresponsive carriers that exploit the elevated shear stress of stenotic arteries to transiently open membrane pores and release encapsulated therapeutics selectively at sites of arterial narrowing. By coupling vascular hemodynamics with RBC membrane mechanics, a hemodynamically activated platform for localized ...
