Polymers are poor heat conductors, so the cooling of thick-walled shapes results in temperature gradients. Here, isotactic polypropylene (iPP) is chosen as a model polymer for the study of polymer crystallization in a temperature gradient field. The morphological Monte Carlo algorithm is applied, combined with the rad…

Electrospun fiber mats (EFMs) are highly versatile biomaterials used in a myriad of biomedical applications. Whereas some facets of EFMs are well studied and can be highly tuned (e.g., pore size, fiber diameter, etc.), other features are under characterized. For example, although substrate mechanics have been explored…

Abstract xSrFe 12 O 19 /(1− x )NiFe 2 O 4 composites (0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0) were synthesized by using a conventional solid‐state synthetic route. The results show that magnetic hysteresis loops of the xSrFe 12 O 19 /(1− x )NiFe 2 O 4 composites are similar to those of individual component ferrites, except for the 0.1SrFe 12 O…

A random terpolymer of poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide-co-ε-caprolactone) (PLLGC) was synthesized from L-lactide, glycolide and ε-caprolactone. The in-vitro hydrolytic degradation behavior of the PLLGC terpolymer was investigated as a function of the degradation time; the results showed that the degradation rate of PLLGC…

Here, we review recent computational findings focused on the behavior of transmutation elements (TEs) in Tungsten (W). W is chosen as one of the most promising materials for the divertor armor and plasma facing components in future fusion reactors. However, W in exposure of fusion neutrons can cause the transmutation…
