Delft University of Technology Novel Method for Adhesion between PI-PDMS Using Butyl Rubber for Large Area Flexible Body Patches
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reports the use of rubber—Polybutadiene as an intermediate adhesive layer for improving the adhesion between polyimide (PI) and silicone polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) which is required for a reliable fabrication of flexible/stretchable body patches for various applications. The adhesive bond initiated by the butyl rubber (BR), apart from being extremely strong, is also chemically resistant and mechanically stable as compared to the state of the art processes of improving adhesion between PI and Silicone.

This paper aims to develop a boundary control solution for a single-link gantry robot manipulator with one axis of rotation. The control procedure is considered with link’s transverse vibrations while system undergoes rigid body nonlinear large rotation and translation. Initially, based on Hamilton principle, governing equations of hybrid motions as a set of partial differential equations...
متن کاملPreliminary results on multi-body dynamic simulation of a new test rig for wheel-rail contact
The ability to perform rolling contact fatigue (RCF) experiments in wheel–rail material is provided by a new small–scale test rig, manifesting the actual dynamic behaviour of the railway system. In this paper, a multi-body dynamics (MBD) model is proposed, simulating the vibration behaviour of the prescribed rig. The new testing facility is modelled using a three-dimensional model of the vehicl...

متن کاملSurface Modification of Silicone Rubber Membrane by Microwave Discharge to Improve Biocompatibility
Wetability of biocompatible polymers can be improved by plasma surface modification. The purpose of this study was to surface modify an experimental poly (dimethylsiloxane) rubber (PDMS) material in order to improve its wetability and biocompatibility. Surface properties of the PDMS were characterized using contact angles measurement for wetability analysis. Samples of experimental silico...
