Intrinsically conducting polymers (ICPs), such as polyacetylene, polyaniline, polypyrrole, polythiophene, and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), can have important application in flexible electronics owing to their unique merits including high conductivity, mechanical flexibility, low cost, good biocompatibility. The requirements for include conductivity appropriate properties. of some I...

Hot melt extrusion is one of the most popular techniques for manufacturing amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs). Over few decades, it has transitioned from lab scale to commercial with various products in market. The current review aims at summarizing considerations formulation development ASDs using HME. Various types Type I IV are discussed along state drug and polymeric carrier each type. Also...

Filler materials are considered added value (volume) to composite materials. The addition of filler leads altering the material characteristics. Nowadays, there has been a notable increase in bio-based polymers and polymer composites. In this regard, agricultural wastes (low-cost renewable substrates) used as content prepare bioplastic composites, they available plenty quantity economical price...

Cellulose nanofibril (CNF)-networks are modified by the addition of small amounts (below 10 wt%) well-defined cationic nanolatexes synthesized through reversible addition–fragmentation chain-transfer-mediated polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA). Minute nanolatex inclusions lead to increased tensile and shear moduli, indicating that can act as bridging-points between CNFs. At higher cont...

Fused deposition modelling (FDM) is a process of additive manufacturing allowing creating highly precise complex three-dimensional objects for large range applications. The principle FDM an extrusion the molten filament and gradual layers their solidification. Potential applications in pharmaceutical medical fields require development biodegradable biocompatible thermoplastics processing filame...

Abstract Structural optimization of crash-related problems usually involves nonlinearities in geometry, material, and contact. The Equivalent Static Load (ESL) method provides a to solve such problems. It has previously been extended employ an individual Finite Element model describing the deformed geometry at each considered time step under name Difference-based (DiESL) method. This paper demo...

Thiol-ene photopolymerization was used to generate a series of covalently crosslinked, imidazolium-containing ionene networks. A variety counteranions were chosen so as investigate the influence size and basicity on thermal, mechanical conductive properties resulting Anhydrous conductivities at 20 °C found be order 10−6 10−10 S/cm correlated some degree with Tg; however, Tg-normalization curves...

Abstract Development of bio-based polymers can reduce human dependence on fossil fuel and move to a sustainable material resource. In this work, thermoplastics starch (TPS) films were produced by plasticization process, in which the crystalline structure granules was destroyed reformed water glycerine through mechanical stirring heating process. Hectorite employed as filler reinforce TPS films....
