Manufacturing AA6061 micro-molds by hot embossing for production of polymeric microfluidic devices by Tran, Nhat Khoa

“…Thus, the focus of this research is to investigate if an aluminum alloy micro-mold could be fabricated by hot-embossing using silicon (Si) master with acceptable cost, quality, and life span. By employing the appropriate processing parameters, experiments conducted indicate conclusively that the deformation mechanism of aluminum alloy 6061 (AA6061) in micro hot embossing is the plastic deformation of the grains themselves. …”

Additive friction stir processing by Lin, Longyi

“…The continuous dynamic recrystalisation during FSP also gave finer grains, which was further enhanced with the addition of CNTs through Zener pinning effect. The improvement in tensile strengths due to finer grains through the Hall-Petch mechanism was insufficient to compensate for the drop in Orowan strengthening. …”

Reverse emulsion polymerization : study of variables’ effects on nanogel synthesis and behaviour by Ho, Cheng En

“…Stable water-dispersible nanohydrogels of crosslinked acrylic acid-co-acrylamide (Poly AAc-co-AM) polymer were formed by inverse emulsion polymerization using N,N'methylenebisacrylamide (NNMBA) as cross-linking agent, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan mono-oleate (TWEEN80) and sorbitan monooleate (SPAN80) as cosurfactants. Various factors (temperature, initiator type, solvent ratio and surfactant ratio) that affect the reaction were arranged in a matrix and experiments were carried out in order to test how the factors affect the formation of the nanogel. …”
