Enhancing the Delamination Efficiency of Polyimide-Copper Bilayers with UV/Heat-Activated Foamable Adhesive: Insights and Applications.

This study explores the adhesive properties of copolymers comprising glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (MPTMS), focusing on their suitability for adhesive applications. Peel resistance measurements revealed a substantial impact of the GMA/MPTMS ratio on adhesion capabilities, identifying an optimal ratio of 30/70 for copolymerization with -butyl acrylate (BA) to improve foaming performance. BA, a foaming monomer activated by a photoacid generator and heat, enhances the copolymerized adhesive's adhesion strength and foamability for postuse delamination.

Direct electron transfer of Cellulomonas fimi and microbial fuel cells fueled by cellulose.

The strain of Cellulomonas fimi NBRC 15513 can generate electricity with cellulose as fuel without mediator using a single chamber type microbial fuel cell (MFC) which had 100 mL of chamber and 50 cm of the air cathode. The MFCs were operated over five days and showed the maximum current density of 10.0 ± 1.

Microbial fuel cells equipped with an iron-plated carbon-felt anode and Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 with corn steep liquor as a fuel.

A single chamber type microbial fuel cell (MFC) with 100 mL of chamber volume and 50 cm of air-cathode was developed in this study wherein a developed iron-plated carbon-felt anode and Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 were used. The performance of the iron-plated carbon-felt anode and the possibility of corn steep liquor (CSL) as a fuel, which was the byproduct of corn wet milling and contained lactic acid, was investigated here. MFCs equipped with iron-plated or non-plated carbon-felt anodes exhibited maximum current densities of 443 or 302 mA/m using 10 g/L of reagent-grade lactic acid, respectively.
