An Internally Heated Shape Memory Polymer Dry Adhesive
A conductive epoxy-based shape memory polymer (SMP) is demonstrated using carbon black (CB) as a dopant for the purpose of creating an SMP dry adhesive system which can internally generate the heat required for activation. The electrical and mechanical properties of the CB/SMP blends for varying dopant concentrations are characterized. A composite adhesive is created to minimize surface contact...
متن کاملNatural Underwater Adhesives.
The general topic of this review is protein-based underwater adhesives produced by aquatic organisms. The focus is on mechanisms of interfacial adhesion to native surfaces and controlled underwater solidification of natural water-borne adhesives. Four genera that exemplify the broad range of function, general mechanistic features, and unique adaptations are discussed in detail: blue mussels, ac...
متن کاملMultiscale Modeling of Carbon Nanotube Adhesion for Dry Adhesives
Geckos have extraordinary ability to move on vertical surfaces and ceilings. The secret of the climbing ability stems from their foot pads, a special hierarchical hairy structure. Mimicking such structure would lead to dry adhesives for many applications. Recent experiments showed that the adhesion of multiwalled carbon nanotubes is larger than that of a gecko foot-hair. To explore the adhesive...
متن کاملSwitchable Adhesion in Vacuum Using Bio-Inspired Dry Adhesives
Suction based attachment systems for pick and place handling of fragile objects like glass plates or optical lenses are energy-consuming and noisy and fail at reduced air pressure, which is essential, e.g., in chemical and physical vapor deposition processes. Recently, an alternative approach toward reversible adhesion of sensitive objects based on bioinspired dry adhesive structures has emerge...
متن کاملHierarchical multi-scale simulations of adhesion at polymer-metal interfaces: dry and wet conditions.
We performed hierarchical multi-scale simulations to study the adhesion properties of various epoxy-aluminium interfaces in the absence and presence of water. The epoxies studied differ from each other in their hexagonal ring structures where one contains aromatic and the other aliphatic rings. As aluminium is unavoidably covered with alumina, a cross-linked epoxy structure near an alumina subs...
