Fracture of dual crosslink gels with permanent and transient crosslinks
We have carried out systematic fracture experiments in a single edge notch geometry over a range of stretch rates on dual crosslink hydrogels made from polyvinyl alcohol chains chemically crosslinked with glutaraldehyde and physically crosslinked with borate ions. If the energy release rate necessary for crack propagation was calculated conventionally, by using the work done to deform the sampl...
متن کاملStress-relaxation behavior in gels with ionic and covalent crosslinks.
Long-chained polymers in alginate hydrogels can form networks by either ionic or covalent crosslinks. This paper shows that the type of crosslinks can markedly affect the stress-relaxation behavior of the gels. In gels with only ionic crosslinks, stress relaxes mainly through breaking and subsequent reforming of the ionic crosslinks, and the time scale of the relaxation is independent of the si...
متن کاملFracture energy of gels
To clarify effects of crack speed and cross-link density on fracture energy of acrylamide gels, we evaluated the roughness of the fracture surface and measured the fracture energy taking into account the roughness. The fracture energy increases linearly with crack speed V in a fast crack speed region, and the increasing rate of fracture energy with V decreases with increasing cross-link density...
متن کاملDelayed fracture in gels
Subject to a subcritical load, a swollen polymeric gel may hesitate for a prolonged period of time without showing any macroscopic symptom, and then break suddenly. Such a phenomenon is usually referred to as the delayed fracture in gels. In this paper, we present a possible mechanism for the delayed fracture in gels from the continuum and fracture mechanics point of view. Using a continuum vis...
متن کاملGenetic Susceptibility to Transient and Permanent Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus
Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a rare kind of diabetes characterized by hyperglycemia and low levels of insulin. Clinically, it is categorized into two main types: transient NDM (TNDM) and permanent NDM (PNDM). These types are diagnosed based on duration of insulin dependence early in the disease. In TNDM, diabetes begins in the first few weeks of life with remission in a few months. Howev...
