Purpose: To evaluate anterior surface topographic technologies and display algorithms in mapping keratoconus. Materials and methods: A total of 27 eyes of 17 subjects clinically diagnosed with keratoconus were imaged on six topographers: EyeSys, Alcon EyeMap, Keratron, TMS-1, Orbscan and PAR corneal topography system. Axial distance (AD) and instantaneous radius of curvature (IROC) algorithms w...

In this work, a structurally revivable, chloride-ion conducting solid electrolyte (SE), CsSn0.9In0.067Cl3, with high ionic conductivity of 3.45 × 10−4 S cm−1 at 25 °C is investigated. The impedance spectroscopy, density functional theory, solid-state 35Cl NMR, and electron paramagnetic resonance studies collectively reveal that the Cl− mobility originates in flexibility structural building bloc...

Flexible and electrically conductive carbon nanotube/thermoplastic polyurethane (CNT/TPU) nanocomposites have been herein fabricated by selective laser sintering (SLS) for the applications of wearable electronics strain sensors. CNT/TPU nanocomposite powders were systematically developed a latex-based technique. The effects CNT content on SLS processability mechanical, electrical, piezoresistiv...

Polymer-grafted nanoparticles (PGNPs) are ideal additives to enhance the mechanical properties and functionality of a polymer matrix can even potentially serve as single-component building blocks for highly filled composites if content is kept low. The major challenge facing such syntheses that PGNP-based solids with short brushes often have low strength limited processability. It therefore rem...

The formation of hybrid materials through the combination chemically versatile, functional metal-organic framework (MOF) family is proposed, with ubiquitous, low cost and durable inorganic glasses. blends composites hence created may serve to minimise, eventually solve cost, durability processability issues MOFs, whilst retaining their valuable properties.
