Mapping the local osmotic modulus of polymer gels.
Polymer gels undergo volume phase transition in a thermodynamically poor solvent as a result of changes in molecular interactions. The osmotic pressure of gels, both synthetic and biological in nature, induces swelling and imparts the materials with the capacity to resist compressive loads. We have investigated the mechanical and swelling properties of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) gels brought int...
متن کاملDose mapping of inhomogeneities positioned in radiosensitive polymer gels
A gel matrix (gelatin), infused with acrylamide monomer and a crosslinking agent has been used as a three-dimensional dosimeter of Xand c-rays as used in radiotherapy. Magnetic resonance imaging is used to create a parameter map of transverse relaxation time (1 2 ) from which a map of absorbed dose is calculated. We are using the technique to investigate the interfacial radiation patterns resul...

Prediction of mechanical properties of carbon nanotube-based composite is one of the important issues which should be addressed reasonably. A proper modeling approach is a multi-scale technique starting from nano scale and lasting to macro scale passing in-between scales of micro and meso. The main goal of this research is to develop a multi-scale modeling approach to extract mechanical propert...
متن کاملSelf-Oscillating Structural Polymer Gels
Self-oscillating polymer gel has become a distinguished class of smart soft materials. Here we fabricated and demonstrated a self-oscillating structural gel network with the incorporation of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction. The structural polymer gel oscillates at a macroscopic level with remarkably faster kinetics compared to a normal gel of similar chemical compositions. The structural...
