Electroactive Polymers for Robotic Application: Artificial Muscles and Sensors

Electroactive polymers (EAPs) reply to electric stimulation with huge deformations. they're dynamic actuators that have attracted realization from an interdisciplinary viewers of engineers and scientists. An permitting EAP know-how is rising which makes an attempt to mimic the houses of ordinary muscle and which, accordingly, can practice a different functionality in various biologically-inspired robotics purposes.

Self-Organized Surfactant Structures

Highlighting fresh advancements in addition to destiny demanding situations, this sequence of volumes covers such themes as emulsions, nano-emulsions, nano-dispersions and novel thoughts for his or her research. It additionally considers the elemental method in components equivalent to managed free up, drug supply and diverse purposes of nanotechnology.

Demonstrated the oxidation of MWCNTs using HNO3. 18. The ID/IG values of the O-MWCNTs clearly exceeded those of the P-MWCNTs, because of the presence of carbon defect sites on the MWCNT walls [103]. 4 UV/O3-Treated CNTs (UV/O3–CNTs) A general procedure for the oxidation of P-CNTs using O3 is as follows: P-CNTs (1 g) were placed in a homemade vertical reactor. O3 (5 wt% in O2) was continuously passed through the reaction chamber at room temperature during the oxidation process. 5 to 6 h. For H2O-assisted ozonolysis, H2O and O3 were introduced into the reaction chamber simultaneously.

Karevan et al. [68] investigated the effect of filler content, presence of interphase, and agglomerates on the effective Young’s modulus of PP-based nanocomposites reinforced with CNTs. It was found that the interphase has an average width of $30 nm and modulus in the range of 5–12 GPa. 10 PS/CNT Composites A typical procedure for the preparation of a PS/CNT composite is as follows [69]: CNTs are dispersed in toluene using an ultrasonic wand dismembrator. The CNT suspensions are then admixed with toluene solutions of PS to yield PS/CNT solutions.
