High Electromechanical Performance of Electroelastomers Based on Interpenetrating Polymer Networks
The electromechanical performance of interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) in which one elastomer network is under high tension balanced by compression of the second network, were investigated.

Orthogonal Gas Sensor Arrays with Intelligent Algorithms for Early Warning of Electrical Fires
The feasibility of utilizing chemical sensor arrays and multivariable analyses as the basis for an early-warning combustion alarm for electrical fires was evaluated.

Field Desorption Ion Source Development for Neutron Generators
A new approach to deuterium ion sources for deuterium-tritium neutron generators is being developed. The source is based upon the field desorption of deuterium from the surfaces of metal tips.

Moisture Induced Electron Traps and Hysteresis in Pentacene-Based Organic Thin-Film Transistors
Previous work revealed that electron traps in pentacene formed in air cause hysteresis in thin-film transistor characteristics. Here, we experimentally showed that water vapor, rather than oxygen, is responsible for these hysteresis-causing trap states.

Role of Nucleation on the Growth of Nanocrystalline Diamond (NCD) Films: a Particular Study in the Fabrication of Micro-Cantilevers
It was observed that the films grown after pre-treating the substrates in pure nanodiamond slurry have not provided a complete coverage at the anchor regions of the cantilevers due to…

New Proton Conductive Composite Materials with Inorganic and Styrene Grafted and Sulfonated Vdf/Ctfe Fluoropolymers
A new functionalized and crosslinkable P(VDF-CTFE) (vinylidene fluoride/chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer) was synthesized using functional borane/oxygen initiator and grafted with styrene (St) via atom transfer radical polymerization followed by partial or the…

Strong Surface Diffusion Mediated Glancing-Angle Deposition: Growth, Recrystallization and Reorientation of Tin Nanorods
Different from usual glancing-angle deposition where low surface diffusion is necessary to form nanorods, strong surface diffusion mediated glancing-angle deposition is exemplified by growing tin nanorod films on both silicon…

Formulation and Evaluation of Albumin Microspheres and Its Enteric Coating Using a Spray-Dryer
This study optimized and evaluated the conditions for surface coating of microspheres using a spray-dryer. Four formulations of Bromophenol blue (BPB)-loaded albumin microspheres were prepared using a spray-dryer, cross-linked at…
