Silicone Hydrogels Materials for Contact Lens Applications
Silicone hydrogel (Si-Hy) materials combine the benefi ts of silicone or siloxane derivates in terms of oxygen permeability and mechanical properties with those of hydrogels in terms of wettability and hidrophilicity. Such properties are critical when it comes to the application at the ocular surface in the form of contact lenses (CL) to correct visual dysfunctions, as bandage mechanism or as d...
متن کاملTHERMAL BOUNDARY CONDUCTANCE: A Materials Science Perspective
The thermal boundary conductance (TBC) of materials pairs in atomically intimate contact is reviewed as a practical guide for materials scientists. First, analytical and computational models of TBC are reviewed. Five measurement methods are then compared in terms of their sensitivity to TBC: the 3ω method, frequencyand time-domain thermoreflectance, the cut-bar method, and a composite effective...
متن کاملSteady-state diffusion of water through soft-contact-lens materials.
Water transport through soft contact lenses (SCL) is important for acceptable performance on the human eye. Chemical-potential gradient-driven diffusion rates of water through SCL materials are measured with an evaporation-cell technique. Water is evaporated from the bottom surface of a lens membrane by impinging air at controlled flow rate and humidity. The resulting weight loss of a water res...
متن کاملDevelopment of Biomedical Polymer-Silicate Nanocomposites: A Materials Science Perspective
Biomedical polymer-silicate nanocomposites have potential to become critically important to the development of biomedical applications, ranging from diagnostic and therapeutic devices, tissue regeneration and drug delivery matrixes to various biotechnologies that are inspired by biology but have only indirect biomedical relation. The fundamental understanding of polymer-nanoparticle interaction...
