BACKGROUND Hydrogels that possess hydrophilic and soft characteristics have been widely used in various biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering scaffolds and drug delivery. Conventional hydrogels are not electrically conductive and thus their electrical communication with biological systems is limited. METHOD To create electrically conductive hydrogels, we fabricated composite hyd...

In this paper we introduce an efficient algorithm for identifying conductive objects using induction data derived from eddy currents. Our method consists of first extracting geometric features from the induction data and then matching them to precomputed data for known objects from a given dictionary. The matching step relies on fundamental properties of conductive polarization tensors and new ...

The research on electro-conductive membranes has expanded in recent years. These membranes have strong prospective as key components in next generation water treatment plants because they are engineered in order to enhance their performance in terms of separation, flux, fouling potential, and permselectivity. The present review summarizes recent developments in the preparation of electro-conduc...

Synthesis, coating, and morphogenesis of conductive polymers were achieved on a variety of substrates through spontaneous generation of activated monomer vapors under ambient pressure and low temperature conditions. The present approach facilitates the generation of complex hierarchical morphologies and the conductive coating for improvement of electrochemical properties.

1. General Introduction Conductive polymer composite materials deserve interest in several application fields [1]. A composite consisting of conductive fillers and an insulating polymer becomes electrically conductive as the filler content exceeds a certain critical value, which is generally attributed to percolation phenomenon. These percolation threshold values for the particular polymer comp...

This project consisted of performance testing and evaluation of concrete containing high-carbon fly ash and carbon fibers. One of the primary aims of this project was to further determine the effect of using high-carbon fly ash and carbon fibers on the electrical properties of concrete. This is a part of the continuing work performed initially by the UWM Center for By-Products Utilization (UWM-...

Traditional knitted fabrics have been extensively applied in dresses and home decoration, and in recent years, the applications of the fabrics knitted by new technologies and new materials also increase in other fields. The conductive fiber knitted fabrics was used in the article, and its electric properties under transverse stretching were tested and researched. Based on the electric model of ...
