An original architectured NiTi silicone rubber structure for biomedical applications.
This paper deals with composite structures for biomedical applications. For this purpose, an architectured tubular structure composed of Nickel Titanium (NiTi) Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) and silicone rubber was fabricated. One of the main interests of such structures is to ensure a good adhesion between its two constitutive materials. A previous study of the authors (Rey et al., 2014) has shown t...
متن کاملPhysical properties of silicone rubber.
2 Mechanical engineer, USAMBRL. 3 Major, Army Medical Specialist Corps, USAMBRL. ROOM-TEMPERATURE-VULCANIZING (RTV) silicone rubber is a versatile material and easy to handle. The ingredients from which it is formed are thick liquids that vulcanize at room temperature within a short period of time after the catalyst is added. Depending upon the relative amounts of solid and foam ingredients, th...
متن کامل'Silicone rubber' lenses in aphakia.
Tesicon, one of the commercially available 'silicone rubber' lenses, was used in the correction of aphakic patients. In 74% of cases the lenses were considered successful for a daily wear regimen by the patient. Furthermore, a small number of patients could wear this lens without interruption for 3 to 6 days at a time. Despite this good acceptance by patients, corneal problems (mainly staining)...

متن کاملFungal colonisation in digital silicone rubber prostheses.
The fungal discolouration of silicone rubber prostheses is reported in four cases. In two of the cases, the discolouration was caused by the fungus Candida tropicalis. In the other two cases, two different fungal organisms, namely Trichoderma sp. and Scedosporium prolificans were incriminated. The non-porous silicone rubber layers create an enclosed environment in the suction cup of the prosthe...
