Transient Electronics for Smart Biodegradable Medical Implants

Matthieu Jean Michel Rüegg

Bioresorbable implantable medical devices show great potential for applications requiring medical care over well-defined periods of time. Such implants naturally degrade and resorb in the body, which eliminates adverse long-term effects or the need for a s ...

Increased electromechanical sensitivity of polysiloxane elastomers by chemical modification with thioacetic groups

Yee Song Ko

Chemically cross-linked polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomers have gained importance as a dielectric in elastic capacitor actuators, which elongate when electrically charged. Common PDMS elastomers have a dielectric permittivity of only about 3 and thus e ...

A Sustainable Approach to Produce Stiff, Super-Tough, and Heat-Resistant Poly(lactic acid)-Based Green Materials

Nicolas Candau, Oguzhan Oguz, Mehmet Kerem Citak, Fatma Nalan Cetin

Circumventing inherent embrittlement, poor heat resistance, and melt elasticity of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) without compromising its remarkable stiffness and strength has become a particular challenge in polymer science due to increasing demand for green ma ...

Sustainable, Reshapable Surfactant-Polyelectrolyte Plastics Employing Water as a Plasticizer

Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Zhangjun Huang, Haiyan Jia

Natural polymers such as those present in foods contain abundant noncovalent intra- and intermolecular interactions, notably hydrogen bonds, which make them rigid when dry, but on exposure to water soften, due to disruption of these interactions. This soft ...

En route to CO2-containing renewable materials: catalytic synthesis of polycarbonates and non-isocyanate polyhydroxyurethanes derived from cyclic carbonates

Paul Joseph Dyson, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Felix Daniel Bobbink

Combining CO2-chemistry with biomass conversion allows renewable polymeric materials including polycarbonates and polyhydroxyurethanes (PHUs) to be generated. The demand for robust materials with modular properties that can be prepared on an industrial sca ...

Design of High Permittivity Polysiloxane Elastomers for Dielectric Elastomer Transducers

Philip Horst Caspari

Dielectric elastomer transducers consist of a dielectric elastomer between two compliant electrodes. When the elastic capacitor is electrically charged, the dielectric elastomer elongates until a balance of elastic and electrostatic force is reached. Elect ...

Artificial Muscles: Dielectric Elastomers Responsive to Low Voltages

Yauhen Sheima

The lack of soft high-dielectric-permittivity elastomers responsive to a low voltage has been a long-standing obstacle for the industrialization of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEA) technology. Here, elastomers that not only possess a high dielectric pe ...

Synthesis of solvent-free processable and on-demand cross-linkable dielectric elastomers for actuators

Frank Nüesch

Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have gained growing interest during the last decade from both the scientific community and industry. However, the high operating voltages needed to drive these actuators reduce their application potential. To date, sev ...
