Multiscale modeling of oriented thermoplastic elastomers with lamellar morphology
Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are block copolymers made up of ‘‘hard’’ (glassy or crystalline) and ‘‘soft’’ (rubbery) blocks that self-organize into ‘‘domain’’ structures at a length scale of a few tens of nanometers. Under typical processing conditions, TPEs also develop a ‘‘polydomain’’ structure at the micron level that is similar to that of metal polycrystals. Therefore, from a continuum ...
متن کاملDamping Behavior of the Phenolic Based Composite Friction Materials Containing Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs)
Attempts have been made for the first time to produce a friction material with thermal sensitive modulus by the inclusion of combined plastic/rubber properties of thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) as viscoelastic polymeric materials into the formulation for the purpose of increasing the damping behavior. In order to evaluate the viscoelastic parameters such as loss factor (tan δ) and elastic m...
متن کاملFluorescence imaging enabled urethane-doped citrate-based biodegradable elastomers.
The field of tissue engineering and drug delivery calls for new measurement tools, non-invasive real-time assays, and design methods for the next wave of innovations. Based on our recent progress in developing intrinsically biodegradable photoluminescent polymers (BPLPs) without conjugating organic dyes or quantum dots, in this paper, we developed a new type urethane-doped biodegradable photolu...
متن کاملThermoplastic Elastomers with Photo-actuating Properties
This contribution reviews elastomeric materials with photo-actuation behavior with emphasis on thermoplastic elastomers and their composites. The principles of the photo-actuation and the main factors affecting the photo-actuation phenomena of thermoplastic elastomer materials are discussed in detail. The well-performing photoactuating systems involving both statistical and block copolymers-bas...
متن کاملHybrid polyurea elastomers with enzymatic degradation and tunable mechanical properties
Herein, we report on the synthesis and characterization of enzymatically labile polyureas for use as a tissue-engineered ligament scaffold. Polyureas were selected due to their excellent tensile properties, fatigue resistance, and highly tunable nature. Incorporation of a collagenase-sensitive peptide into the backbone of the polyurea provided a means to confer cell-responsive degradation to th...
