Binder effects in photopolymerized acrylate/zeolite composites for 3D printing/ion-exchange applications

3d Woven Composites for Energy Absorbing Applications

Due to the presence of through-thickness reinforcement, 3D woven composites have superior fracture toughness, fatigue life, and damage tolerance compared to laminated composites. Furthermore, 3D woven composites exhibit a progressive damage behavior which is more benign than the typical catastrophic failure behavior of laminated composites. These properties lead to high specific energy absorpti...

3D Network SiC-Metals Composites for Heavy Duty Brake Applications

Photopolymerized multifunctional (meth)acrylates as model polymers for dental applications.

Polymer networks that can serve as model systems for dental applications were prepared by photopolymerizations of 1,1,1-trimethylolpropane triacrylate, 1,1,1-trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, 1,1,1-trimethylolethane trimethacrylate, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, Photomer 2028 and Photomer 3015. The UV polymerizations were initiated by 2,2-dimethoxy-2-pheny...

Material Stiffness Effects on Neurite Alignment to Photopolymerized Micropatterns

The ability to direct neurite growth into a close proximity of stimulating elements of a neural prosthesis, such as a retinal or cochlear implant (CI), may enhance device performance and overcome current spatial signal resolution barriers. In this work, spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs), which are the target neurons to be stimulated by CIs, were cultured on photopolymerized micropatterns with vari...
