Supercritical Co2 Impregnation of Polyethylene Components for Medical Purposes
Modern hip and knee endoprosthesis are produced in titanium and to reduce the friction at the contact area polymer parts, mainly ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE), are installed. The polyethylene is impregnated with αtocopherol (vitamin E) before processing for remarkable decrease of oxidative degradation. Cross linked UHMW-PE offers much higher stability, but α-tocopherol cann...
متن کاملKinetics of swelling under constraint
Swellable elastomers are used to seal flow channels in oilfield operations. After sealing, the elastomers are constrained triaxially, and a contact load builds up between the elastomers and surrounding rigid materials. For these applications, the ability to predict the evolution of the contact load is important. This work introduces an experimental setup to measure the contact load as a functio...
متن کاملSwelling Measurements of a Low Rank Coal in Supercritical CO2
Coal swelling in the presence of water as well as CO2 is a well-known phenomenon, and these may affect the permeability of coal. Quantifying swelling effects is becoming an important issue to verify the suitability of particular coal seams for CO2-enhanced coal bed methane recovery projects. In this report, coal swelling experiments using a visualization method in the CO2 supercritical conditio...
متن کاملCharacterizing the Dissolution Rate of CO2-Brine in Porous Media under Gaseous and Supercritical Conditions
The CO2-brine dissolution homogenizes the distribution of residual CO2 and reduces the leakage risk in the saline aquifer. As a key parameter to immobilize the free CO2, the dissolution rate of CO2-brine could be accelerated through mechanisms like diffusion and dispersion, which are affected by the subsurface condition, pore structure, and background hydrological flow. This study contributed t...
متن کاملModelling the supercritical CO2 extraction kinetics of soybean oil
Different empirical models were used to describe the supercritical CO2 extraction of soybean oil obtained at series of operational parameters namely pressure, temperature, solvent flow rate and characteristic particle size. Process yields obtained by supercritical CO2 were up to 19.33%. Several kinetic models: Brunner, Kandiah and Spiro, Tan and Liou, Martinez et al. and Esquivel et al. were us...
