A novel magnetorheological vibration isolator with two operating conditions, horizontal shear and vertical compression, was designed and manufactured. The rheological properties of the energy-dissipating material were directly related to the volume fraction of iron powder in the laminated working unit of the magnetorheological vibration isolator. Aggregation of the carbonyl iron powder (CIP) strongly influenced on the rheological properties of the magnetorheological vibration isolator. Considered that the curing temperature affected the preparation process, polyurethane rubber was selected as the collective matrix of the magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) because of its wear resistance, good adhesion, high strength, corrosion resistance and solvent resistance. The dynamic properties of the polyurethane rubber MREs were experimentally characterised. A mathematical model was established for the magnetic induction effect (MIE) of the polyurethane magnetorheological isolator in a transverse shear deformation mode as well as a vertical tension and compression deformation mode. The magnetorheological effect was strongest under transverse shear deformation for an effective volume fraction of particles of 34% because of the effect of aggregation of the iron powder particles. The magnetic compression modulus depended strongly on the strain under vertical compression.

Background: Despite the development of various therapeutic approaches over the past decades, the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) remains a major challenge. The extracellular adenosine-generating enzyme, CD73, is involved in the pathogenesis and progression of GBM, and targeting CD73 may represent a novel approach to treat this cancer. In this study, three-dimensional culture systems based on three hydrogel compositions were characterized and an optimal type was selected to simulate the GBM microenvironment.

Chitin hydrogel and hydrogel-based products are some of the frequently reported biomaterials for biomedical applications. Yet there is a void in understanding chitin's dissolution mechanism and its most suitable solvent system(s). Chitin is a natural polysaccharide polymer which can be dissolved in solvents such as calcium chloride- methanol, sodium hydroxide/urea (NaOH/urea), lithium chloride diacetamide (LiCl/DMAc), ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents.

Interplay of chain dynamics and ion transport on mechanical behavior and conductivity in ionogels.

Soft Matter

December 2024

South China Advanced Institute for Soft Matter Science and Technology, School of Emergent Soft Matter, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou 510640, China.

Understanding the interplay among the mechanical behavior, ionic conductivity and chain dynamics of ionogels is essential for designing flexible conductors that exhibit both high conductivity and excellent mechanical properties. In this study, ionogels were synthesized the radical polymerization of ,'-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA) and methacrylic acid (MAAc) monomers in the presence of ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethane sulfonate ([EMIM][OTf]). By varying the mass content of ionic liquid within ionogels, we investigated the mechanical behavior and ionic conductivity at the macroscopic scale using tensile, rheological testing and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, as well as the dynamic behavior of chain segments and ions within the network at the microscopic scale using broadband dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (BDS) over a broad temperature range.
