OBJECTIVES Good wettability of maxillofacial prosthetic materials is important so that a lubricating layer is formed with supporting tissues thus reducing patient discomfort. The purpose of the study was to surface modify an experimental silicone rubber material in order to improve wettability. METHODS Samples of experimental silicone rubber were surface modified by first argon plasma treatme...
The effects of early weaning and exogenous hormones on postpartum estrus, conception and lambing performance were evaluated with 124 fall-lambed Karakul ewes. The broad outline of the experiment consisted of two lactation periods (nursing for 48 hr or 60 days postpartum) and four hormone treatment groups as follows: (1) a single injection of 2 mg estradiol-17/3 on day 4 postpartum and on the sa...
We discuss spontaneously bent configurations of pre-stretched bilayer sheets that can be obtained by tuning the pre-stretches in the two layers. The two-dimensional nonlinear plate model we use for this purpose is an adaptation of the one recently obtained for thin sheets of nematic elastomers, by means of a rigorous dimensional reduction argument based on the theory of Gamma-convergence (Agost...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Modeling of light transport in tissue requires development of theoretical models and experimental procedures, as well as tissue-simulating phantoms. Our purpose was to develop a phantom that matches the optical characteristics of human skin in the visible and near infrared spectral range. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS The phantom consists of a transparent silicon...
In this paper, we introduce a new touch sensor design, which we refer to as hybrid tactile sensor. It combines the simplicity of analog touch sensing, which is widely used in electronic touch screens and touchpads, with the ability of shape discrimination of the array touch senstactile sensors designed for robotics applidescribe the construction techniques of the sensor, its modelling, and shap...
A headspace sampling method is described for concentrating milk volatiles onto a multi-channel open tubular silicone rubber trap (MCT) for thermal desorption into a GC-FID. Sections of the chromatographic profile, single peaks or combinations of compounds are recaptured with secondary MCTs during a subsequent run. The recaptured aroma is released in a controlled manner by heating the MCT in a p...
Architectured membranes can be developed in order to mimic living tissues. The main point is to generate anisotropic membranes that can endure large deformations. In this way, crenellated membranes are elaborated with a filled silicone rubber. The aim of this work is to develop a constitutive equation which describes the mechanical behavior of such architectured materials. Membranes with differ...
Silicones are outstanding elastomers with e.g. great thermal properties and purity that make them important commercial materials. Current Research Development aim at generating filler-free, non-cross-linked materials so to bring transparency, reusability, self-healing propensity. This mini review gives, first a short summary of conventional thermoplastic silicone genesis, then some examples cur...
An important trend in electronics involves the development of materials, mechanical designs and manufacturing strategies that enable the use of unconventional substrates, such as polymer films, metal foils, paper sheets or rubber slabs. The last possibility is particularly challenging because the systems must accommodate not only bending but also stretching. Although several approaches are avai...
A cheap and fast method of providing long term accommodating insoles is described. Room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone rubber is used, with suitable coverings, to provide pain relief and support for feet and ankles. The combination of physical properties of the finished item provides a useful balance between support and flexibility which results in these insoles being readily accepted b...
