New nonwovens applications in areas such as filtration require a media designed to particular pore size specifications in the 3 to 20 micron range. The purpose of this work was to develop a basis by which to design and construct a fabric with given pore size specifications. While doing so we have provided a validation…

We describe methodology of laser Doppler forced vibrology (LDFV) applied to texture assessment of soft agricultural products. The method is applied to a melon. The lowest frequency resonant peak (mode M0) is used for corrections of the whole amplitude frequency plot expressed in relation to the forcing deformation lev…

Models of kinetic theory provide a coarse-grained description of molecular configurations wherein atomistic processes are ignored. The Fokker-Planck equation related to the kinetic theory descriptions must be solved for the distribution function in both physical and configuration spaces. When the model involves high d…

A specific twin channel slit die was used to measure in-line the viscous behaviour of an extruded wheat starch. This allows to put in evidence the influences of temperature, water content and specific mechanical energy (SME). The proposed rheological law permits to satisfactorily predict the viscosity of a wheat starc…

Recent research on all aspects of thermally point bonded nonwovens has led to considerable improvements in the understanding of material requirements for these nonwovens, the changes that occur during bonding and the resultant deterioration of the mechanical properties of the nonwoven materials. This paper addresses h…

The Handbook of Nonwoven Filter Media is a new textbook and is one of the few books dealing with the subject of nonwoven filter media through the entire text. It is highly recommended as a prime reference for people in the nonwovens industry. This book culminates a productive career in the field and impressively lives…

A simple method was used to prepare a nonwoven fabric of intimately co-mingled Nylon-6 and Polyethylene oxide (PEO) electrospun fibers by spinning fibers onto a rotating collector. Electrospinning parameters for each polymer were independent. Fiber mixture and distribution was uniform throughout the depth of the fabri…

In this letter, we investigate the impact of inductance on bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) for future very large scale integration interconnect applications. Leveraging a scalable equivalent circuit model, we assess the relative impact of magnetic inductance and the worst case theoretical value of ki…

Shape-memory polymers are an emerging class of active polymers that have dual-shape capability. They can change their shape in a predefined way from shape A to shape B when exposed to an appropriate stimulus. While shape B is given by the initial processing step, shape A is determined by applying a process called prog…

Treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a primary malignant tumor of the brain, is one of the most challenging problems as no currently available treatment is curative. Surgery remains the basic treatment in which the bulk of the tumor is removed and the peripheral infiltrating part is the target of supplementary…

The thermal conductivity of n-type nanocrystalline bismuth-telluride-based thin films (Bi2.0Te2.7Se0.3) is investigated by a differential 3ω method at room temperature. The nanocrystalline thin films are grown on a glass substrate by a flash evaporation method, followed by hydrogen annealing at 250 °C. The structure o…

Graft polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate onto the pore surface of polyacrylamide macroporous gel was implemented in DMSO-aqueous solution using diperiodatocuprate(III) complexes as an initiator. The grafting densities up to 410% were achieved. The graft polymerization was confirmed by gravimetrical methods and FT…

The influence of adhesion to the mould wall on the released strain of a highly filled anhydride cured epoxy resin (EP), which was hardened in an aluminium mould under constrained and unconstrained condition, was investigated. The shrinkage-induced strain was measured by fibre optical sensing technique. Fibre Bragg Gra…

Thin microcellular polycarbonate (PC) sheets have been prepared by compression molding. Tensile tests were performed on microcellular PC sheets prepared under different conditions, and results show that foaming time plays the main role on the tensile property. The cellular structure prepared in this process has been s…

As the main of thermosensitive polymeric materials, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) undergoes volume changes in response to external temperature changes. While in some potential applications, a fast response rate is needed. In this article, effect of the initiator on thermosensitivity of PNIPAM hydrogels was carr…
