Thermo-deformable plastic films experience an optical birefringence phenomenon when they are subjected to mechanical strain, this phenomenon can be described by color fringes behavior observed in sequences of images acquired through photoelasticity assemblies. This paper proposes a temporary morphological analysis that color fringes experience when the plastic film is deformed. For the image an...

The effect of post heat-treatment on the spectral properties photopolymer reflection holograms scheme has been studied. It established that with protective film retain a high diffraction efficiency ~ 90% and do not have additional shrinkage during heat treatment for several days at temperature 80-90 o C. without film, removed after exposition, when heated in range 40-110 C, show effective up to...

Extraordinary Optical Transmission Plasmonic Color Filters (EOT-PCFs) with nanostructures have the advantages of consistent color, small size, and excellent color reproduction, making them a suitable replacement for colorant-based filters. Currently, gamut created by plasmonic filters is limited to standard red, green, blue (sRGB) space, which limits their use in future. To address this limitat...

2014 At equilibrium thin films of symmetric diblock copolymers exhibit a morphology where the lamellar microdomains are oriented parallel to the external surfaces. Interference microscopy has been used to investigate this orientation which results in a quantization of the film thickness. Solution cast films of the symmetric polystyrene/polymethylmethacrylate P(S-b-MMA) diblock copolymers exhibi...

Oxygen scavengers are used in food packaging to protect oxygen-sensitive food products. A mixture of gallic acid (GA) and sodium carbonate was used as an oxygen scavenger (OSc) in bio-based multilayer packaging films produced in a three-step process: compounding, flat film extrusion, and lamination. We investigated the film surface color as well as oxygen absorption at different relative humidi...

Radiochromic film with a dye incorporated into the radiation sensitive layer [Gafchromic EBT2, Ashland, Inc.] may be digitized by a color transparency scanner, digitally processed, and calibrated so that a digital image in units of radiation absorbed dose is obtained. A transformation from raw scanner values to dose values was developed based upon a principal component analysis of the optical d...

The measurement system for the pressure between the blade of a laryngoscope and the upper airway tract during orotracheal intubation has been investigated with a film of microcapsules. Two types of the laryngoscope were used in the study: WisForegger and Mac-Intosh. The film is attached on the surface of the blade of the laryngoscope. The measurement was applied to 20 cases of the orotracheal i...

The objectives of this research were to improve the film-forming properties of Channel Catfish Ictalurus punctatus skin gelatin (CSG) by cross-linking with transglutaminase (TG), determine and optimize the TG reaction time, and characterize the mechanical and barrier properties of CSG edible film. Cross-linking of CSG was performed by TG for 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 min at 50°C, and the reaction w...

The effects of poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-based film with inorganic antimicrobial nano-TiO₂ and nano-Ag on the physicochemical and microbial quality of Tremella aurantialba stored at 4 ± 1 °C for 16 days was investigated. Rosemary essential oil (REO, 9 wt %) was added into PLA film as plasticizer. Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and PLA film was used as the controls. The experiment measured physic...

Recently, CsPbBr3 perovskites have been emerging as very promising green emission materials for light-emitting diodes (LEDs) due to their high color purity, low cost and high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). However, the corresponding LED performance is still low and far behind CH3NH3PbBr3; it is due to the lack of proper perovskite film preparation methods and interfacial engineering. H...
