Effect of the Simultaneous Addition of Polycaprolactone and Carbon Nanotubes on the Mechanical, Electrical, and Adhesive Properties of Epoxy Resins Cured with Ionic Liquids by Lidia Orduna, Itziar Otaegi, Nora Aranburu, Gonzalo Guerrica-Echevarría

“…Although the CNTs were more poorly dispersed in the epoxy/PCL/CNT/IL NCs than in the reference epoxy/CNT/IL NCs, which led to slightly lower electrical conductivity values, the epoxy/PCL/CNT/IL NCs were still semiconductive. Their low-strain mechanical properties (i.e., flexural modulus and flexural strength) were similar or better than those of the reference epoxy/IL systems and their high-strain mechanical properties (i.e., deformation at break and impact strength) were significantly better. …”

Experimental studies on Trypanosoma (Schizotrypanum) cruzi strains isolated from man, from animals and from triatomine bugs in Brazil by W. B. Petana, J. R. Coura

“…The parasites were slightly viscerotropic in white mice in six of the strains, highly viscerotropic and cardiotropic in two strains, and asymptomatic on one strain. Mechanical and cyclical passage from infected to healthy mice, and treatment of the infected mice with immunosuppressant drug, did not increase the blood parasitaemia or strain virulence. …”

Experimental characterisation and modelling of the strain rate dependent mechanical response of a filled thermo-reversible supramolecular polyurethane by Chen, H, Hart, L, Hayes, W, Siviour, C

“…In this research, a recently developed reusable and low temperature processable supramolecular polyurethane was mixed with sugar particles to produce a model composite material with different particle sizes or volume fractions, which were subsequently characterised and modelled. Large strain mechanical properties of the material were analysed in compression at strain rates up to approximately 1800 s−1, supported by measurements of the small strain viscoelastic response at different temperatures and frequencies. …”

Effects of Specimen Thickness and Non-Isothermal Process on Creep Behavior of AA2024 Aluminum Alloy by Xintong Wu, Lihua Zhan, Youliang Yang, Yongqian Xu, Qiliang Zhang, Xiaobo Yang

“…In this paper, the effects of specimen thickness and the non-isothermal process on creep behavior of AA2024 aluminum alloy, which is generally used in FMLs, were systematically studied in terms of creep strain, mechanical properties, and microstructure. The results show that the microstructure and mechanical properties of the aluminum alloy layer are greatly affected by the creep age during the FML forming process, but the specimen thickness has little effect on the creep behavior under experimental conditions. …”

High‐Impact PLA in Compatibilized PLA/PCL Blends: Optimization of Blend Composition and Type and Content of Compatibilizer by Ainhoa Fernández‐Tena, Itziar Otaegi, Lourdes Irusta, Victor Sebastián, Gonzalo Guerrica‐Echevarria, Alejandro Jesus Müller, Nora Aranburu

“…Larger compatibilizer contents lead to even higher impact strength values, but the low‐strain mechanical properties are notably reduced. Thus, in this work, a simple and easily scalable method to produce high‐impact PLA is shown, as it implies the compounding of three commercially available components without involving any toxic solvents.…”
