Abstract:
The interface between biaxially oriented poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films and poly (styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (PSMA) was reinforced by nitrogen plasma treatment of PET film and subsequent annealing treatment of the PET/PSMA bi-material. The fracture toughness, Gc, of the interface was quantitatively measured using an asymmetric double cantilever beam test (ADCB). X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS) was used to measure the change in the surface composition of PET films upon plasma treatment and correlate the fracture toughness of the interface. The fracture energy of PET/PSMA interface is significantly enhanced by annealing the plasma treated PET with PSMA at a temperature greater than the glass transition temperature of PSMA (~ 120°C). At an annealing temperature of 150°C, Gc increases with increasing plasma treatment time and reaches a plateau value of ~ 100–120 J/m2, a two order of magnitude increase in Gc compared with that of samples annealed at 130°C. The enhancement of the adhesion is resulted from the in-situ formation of copolymers due to reaction between amine functional groups from the plasma treatment and anhydride groups from PSMA. For plasma treatment time < 10 s, scanning electron microscope (SEM) measurement show that the fracture surface is relatively smooth indicating an interfacial failure between PET/PSMA. With increasing plasma treatment time and therefore increasing the amount of nitrogen functional groups on PET surface, large plastic deformation takes place at the PET/PSMA interface. For treatment time ≥ 100–150 s, the PET/PSMA interface becomes stronger than PET bulk material and consequently crack deviates from the interface and the failure occurs within the PET film. The interlayer fracture energy of a biaxially oriented PET film can thus be quantitatively measured with a Gc value of roughly 120 J/m2.

Abstract:
In this study, surface modifications and manufacturing processes for polyethylene terephthalate (PET)/polypropylene (PP) composites were developed. When non-polar PP resin is combined with polar polyester fiber, its compatibility and wettability are the key technologies. Maleic anhydride-grafted PP (MAPP) was blended with PP to improve the polarity of the PP resin and react with PET fibers. In addition, a primer was applied to the PET fabric to improve the bonding and reactivity of PET fiber and MAPP. PET/PP composites that imitated the texture and appearance of carbon fabric were prepared by thin film stacking method. The effect of MAPP and primer on interfacial bonding was evaluated by single-fiber pullout test. The mechanical properties of the PET/PP composites such as impact, and open-hole tensile strength (OHT), were studied.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper investigates the adhesive interface in a polymer/metal (polyethylene terephthalate/steel) laminate that is subjected to uniaxial strain. Cross-sections perpendicular to such interfaces were created with a focused ion beam and imaged with scanning electron microscopy during straining in the electron microscope. During in situ straining, glide steps formed by the steel caused traction at the interface and initiated crazes in the polyethylene terephthalate (PET). These crazes readily propagated along the free surface of the PET layer. Similar crazing has not been previously encountered in laminates that were pre-strained or in numerical calculations. The impact of focused ion beam treatments on mechanical properties of the polymer/metal laminate system was therefore investigated. It was found that mechanical properties such as toughness of PET are dramatically influenced by focused ion beam etching. It was also found that this change in mechanical properties has a different effect on the pre-strained and in situ strained samples.

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to analyze the interfacial and the frictional properties of copper (Cu) reinforced polyethylene terephthalate (PET) filament. This Cu-Embedded PET filament will be used as an information transmitter. This filament was prepared by a co-extrusion process. Mechanical properties of these filaments have been quantified by tensile and pull-out analyses. It is shown that the mechanical properties of composite filament were improved by adding the copper filament (from 0.82 to 1.2 GPa). The results of the pull-out test revealed some adhesion between the copper and the PET despite the existence of a slippage of the copper filament in the PET matrix. Regarding the variation of the maximum pull-out load, according to the embedded length, a linearity relationship is observed. Therefore, it can be assumed that the interfacial shear stress is constant over the embedded length. Filaments surfaces have been analyzed after friction with Scanning Electron Microscope. Experimental results show a satisfying wear resistance of filaments, even if friction is able to induce some structural modifications of the polymer surface.

Abstract The PET-steel composite sheet with the interlayer of PU film has been produced, and the effect of interlayer thickness on the interface bonding strength has been researched. The experimental results indicate that the PET-PU-steel composite sheet would have a good interface bonding strength, which would decrease gradually and finally become stable as the PU film thickness increases. There would always be some residual PU film on the steel surface after the peeling test, no matter what the PU film thickness is, and the interface failure mode would always be the mixed failure mode. However, the quantity of residual PU film on the steel surface following the peeling test decreases progressively and eventually stabilizes as the thickness of the PU film increases.

Abstract:
As food and beverages require more and more green and safe packaging products, the emergence of polymer coated steel (PCS) has been promoted. PCS is a layered composite strip made of metal and polymer. To probe the bonding mechanism of PCS micro-interface, the substrate tin-free steel (TFS) was physically characterized by SEM and XPS, and cladding polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was simulated by first-principles methods of quantum mechanics (QM). We used COMPASS force field for molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. XPS pointed out that the element composition of TFS surface coating is Cr(OH)3, Cr2O3 and CrO3. The calculation results of MD and QM indicate that the chromium oxide and PET molecules compound in the form of acid-base interaction. The binding energies of Cr2O3 (110), (200), and (211) with PET molecules are −13.07 eV, −2.74 eV, and −2.37 eV, respectively. We established a Cr2O3 (200) model with different hydroxyl concentrations. It is proposed that the oxygen atom in C=O in the PET molecule combines with –OH on the surface of TFS to form a hydrogen bond. The binding energy of the PCS interface increases with the increase of the surface hydroxyl concentration of the TFS. It provides theoretical guidance and reference significance for the research on the bonding mechanism of PCS.

Abstract:
Summary Aim: Identification of typical patterns for fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in positron emission tomography (PET) to detect aseptic loosening of hip prosthesis (ace-tabular and/or femoral component) and prosthetic infection. Methods: 18 patients with painful hip prosthesis underwent PET using a dedicated full ring scanner after application of 200-300 MBq FDG. The interface between bone and surrounding soft tissue or bone as displayed on coronal slices was divided into 12 segments in accordance with the classifications of Delee and Gruen. FDG uptake in each of the segments was scored (0-3) by two independent observers. Intraoperative findings were regarded as the gold standard. Results: After surgical revision 14 acetabular components and 9 femoral components were found to be loose and prosthetic infection was present in 7 prostheses. Loosening of the acetabular component was correlated to enhanced uptake in the middle of the acetabular interface, while loosening of the femoral component was correlated to enhanced uptake in the proximal and middle segment of the lateral femoral interface and the proximal segment of the medial femoral interface. A similar pattern was found in prosthetic infection with high uptake along the middle portion of the lateral fe-moral interface. In 6 of 7 infected prostheses loosening of the acetabular and of the femoral component was present. Taking the typical uptake patterns as criteria for loosening and grade 3 uptake as an additional criterion for septic loosening the accuracy of PET imaging in the detection of loosening of the acetabular or the femoral component and of prosthetic infection was 72, 78 and 89%, respectively. Conclusion: This pilot study presents FDG-PET as a promising diagnostic tool for patients with painful hip prostheses. Its clinical value should be evaluated in a larger patient population.

Full text
Abstract:
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles have recently appeared in PET waste because of the introduction of opaque PET bottles. We prepare polymer blend nanocomposites (PBNANOs) by adding hydrophilic (hphi), hydrophobic (hpho), and hydrophobically modified (hphoM) titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles to 80rPP/20rPET recycled blends. Contact angle measurements show that the degree of hydrophilicity of TiO2 decreases in the order hphi &gt; hpho &gt; hphoM. A reduction of rPET droplet size occurs with the addition of TiO2 nanoparticles. The hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance controls the nanoparticles location. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM_ shows that hphi TiO2 preferentially locates inside the PET droplets and hpho at both the interface and PP matrix. HphoM also locates within the PP matrix and at the interface, but large loadings (12%) can completely cover the surfaces of the droplets forming a physical barrier that avoids coalescence, leading to the formation of smaller droplets. A good correlation is found between the crystallization rate of PET (determined by DSC) and nanoparticles location, where hphi TiO2 induces the highest PET crystallization rate. PET lamellar morphology (revealed by TEM) is also dependent on particle location. The mechanical behavior improves in the elastic regime with TiO2 addition, but the plastic deformation of the material is limited and strongly depends on the type of TiO2 employed.

Abstract:
How to improve the bonding strength of polymers to metals has been one of the challenges in joining fields. It is generally assumed that laser transmission joining is better than laser conduction joining (LCJ) for transparent polymers, and few studies have been focused on LCJ. However, by introducing beam oscillation, an excellent result was obtained in the LCJ of transparent polyethylene terephthalate (PET) to 304 stainless steel. The interface defects of thermal decomposition and bubbles could be eliminated or reduced more efficiently in oscillating laser conduction joining (O-LCJ) rather than transmission joining. Correspondingly, the tensile shear force of joint O-LCJ could be increased by 23.8%, and the plasticity characterized by tensile displacement could be increased by seven times. The improvement mechanism was attributed to two factors by calculating the interface energy distribution and analyzing the force state at the interface. One is the homogenization of interface energy distribution caused by beam oscillation, which decreases the degradation and destruction of polymer macromolecular chains induced by high temperature. The other is the formation of interface bi-directional forces that both inhibit the porosity formation and intensify the chemical reactions. The results bring new insights and provide a new pathway to improve the joining performances of dissimilar polymers to metals.

Abstract:
In this investigation, metallocene polyethylene (m-PE) was melt blended with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) with an effort to achieve improved mechanical properties using a novel eccentric rotor extruder (ERE) without the addition of any compatibilizers. The phase morphology, rheological properties, crystallization behavior, and mechanical properties of the fabricated blends were carefully studied to explore the effect of the elongational flow field on the dispersion and mixing of PET in the m-PE matrix and the interface of the two immiscible polymers. For comparison, a conventional twin-screw extruder (TSE) was used to prepare the same blends as references using the same processing condition. It shows that the elongational flow field in ERE is much more effective to disperse the immiscible PET in the m-PE matrix with a smaller particle size and a narrower particle size distribution, compared to the shear flow field in TSE. A compatibilizer, ethylene-co-methyl acrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate (E-MA-GMA), was added to the m-PE/PET blends during the processing using TSE and ERE. It was observed that the improvement of the tensile property by adding the compatibilizer is marginal for the m-PE/PET blends processed using ERE, which indirectly proves the high effectiveness of the elongational flow field on the enhancement of the dispersion and mixing of PET in the m-PE matrix and the interface interaction.

Abstract In this paper, the forming limit of PET/steel composite with different layer thickness ratios has been researched. The experimental results of the ball punch deformation test of PET/steel composite with different layer thickness ratios have shown that the PET/steel composite has a good forming limit. When the thickness of PET/steel composite is unchanged, no matter what the stamping direction would be, the forming limit would increase as the thickness of PET film increases; no matter what the layer thickness ratio would be, the forming limit of PET/steel composite with the stamping direction of (steel/PET) would always be larger than that with the stamping direction of (PET/steel). The finite element simulation results of the ball punch deformation test of PET/steel composite with different layer thickness ratios have shown that the good bonding interface could make the PET film constrain the deformation of A36 steel plate and increase the deformation limit of PET/steel composite, which would increase as the layer thickness ratio increases.

Abstract:
To investigate the mechanisms of the adhesion (self-bonding) strength (s) development during the early stages of self-healing of polymer–polymer interfaces and fracture thereof, it is useful to operate not only with the average s value but with the s distribution as well. The latter has been shown to obey Weibull’s statistics for such interfaces. However, whether it can also follow the most widely used normal (Gaussian) distribution is currently unclear. Moreover, a more complicated self-healing case, when the s development at an initially amorphous interface is accompanied by its crystallization, has not been investigated yet in this respect. In order to address these two important issues, 10 pairs of amorphous poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) samples were kept in contact for various periods of time from 5 min to 15 h at a temperature (T) of 94 °C (preserving the amorphous state) or T = 150 °C (giving rise to cold crystallization), or both Ts. Thereafter, the as-formed amorphous and semi-crystalline PET–PET auto-adhesive joints were shear fractured in tension at ambient temperature. For the first time, the statistical distributions of a number of the measured s data sets were analyzed and discussed using both Weibull’s and the Gaussian model, including several normality tests.

Hirudin-immobilized PETs were prepared by the grafting of PET-AA, followed by chemical reaction with hirudin. The surface structure of the treated PET is determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The wettability and surface free energy, interface free energy of the films is investigated by contact angle measurement. Platelet adhesion evaluatiion is conducted to examine the blood compatibility in vitro.

Abstract:
In the present study, effect of pre-oxidized (PO) CuO layer in the joining between polyethylene terephalate (PET) and copper (Cu) by using pulsed Nd:YAG laser was investigated. The experimental result for PET/PO Cu (with pre-oxidized layer) and PET/Cu (without pre-oxidized layer) were presented in this paper. The results showed the pre-oxidation surface improved the welding efficiency. The welded area and tensile shear failure load (TSFL) of PET/PO Cu joint were increased when pre-oxidized layer was introduced. This indicates that high heat was absorbed during laser irradiation of PET/PO-Cu joint compare to PET/Cu joint. On the other hand, the fracture surface of PET/PO-Cu showed the presence of Cu and Cu oxide particles in the PET side. While in case of PET/Cu, no occurrence of Cu particles can be observed. The presence of Cu oxide particles and Cu particles were believed may increase PET/PO Cu joint shear force. From the cross-sectional observation of PET/PO Cu joint interface, it was found that an oxide layer in the laser irradiation area was removed and PET seemed to have intimate contact with Cu surface.

A presente pesquisa avaliou, por meio de ensaios de cisalhamento tipo Leutner, o comportamento de aderência de revestimentos asfálticos reforçados com geossintéticos, avaliando diferentes taxas de emulsão e a relação dos resultados de cisalhamento com as propriedades físicas e mecânicas dos geossintéticos presentes na interface. Para tanto, corpos-de-prova foram extraídos de seções experimentais de campo, onde foram aplicadas 4 taxas de emulsão asfáltica de ruptura rápida (RR-2C) e 3 geocompostos de reforço (PET, PVA e Fibra de vidro). Os resultados mostraram que houve melhor desempenho de resistência ao cisalhamento e módulo de rigidez de interface quanto maior a taxa de emulsão aplicada para todos os geocompostos. Este aumento foi de 129 %, 73% e 146% para interface com geocompostos de reforço de PET, PVA e fibra de vidro, respectivamente. A capacidade de retenção de asfalto dos geossintéticos não esteve relacionada à máxima aderência de interface, uma vez que taxas mais altas foram usadas. As propriedades físicas dos geossintéticos apresentaram influência sobre os resultados de aderência, com destaque para espessura, massa por unidade de área e abertura de malha das geogrelhas presente no geocompostos. Geossintéticos mais rígidos não levaram à maiores valores de aderência de interface, enquanto levaram a um maior módulo de rigidez de interface. A influência do aumento da taxa de ligante foi maior do que a influência das propriedades físicas e mecânicas dos geossintéticos.

Abstract:
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fabric-reinforced polyvinyl chloride (PVC) composites have a wide range of applications, but the interface bonding of PET fabric/PVC composites has remained a challenge. In this work, a new in-situ SiO2/tributyl citrate sizing agent was synthesized according to the principle of “similar compatibility.” The developed sizing agent was used as a PET surface modifier to enhance the interfacial performance of PET fabric/PVC composites. The morphology and structure of the PET filaments, the wettability and tensile properties of the PET fabric, the interfacial adhesion, and the tensile and tearing properties of the PET fabric/PVC composites were investigated. Experimental results showed that many SiO2 nanoparticles were scattered on the surface of the modified PET filaments. Moreover, the surface roughness of the modified PET filaments remarkably increased in comparison with that of the untreated PET filaments. The contact angle of the modified PET filaments was also smaller than that of the untreated ones. The peeling strength of the modified PET fabrics/PVC composites was 0.663 N/mm, which increased by 62.50% in comparison with the peeling strength of the untreated ones (0.408 N/mm). This work provides a new approach to the surface modification of PET and improves the properties of PET fabric/PVC composites.

Full text
Abstract:
The scattering phenomena of the fundamental antisymmetric Lamb wave mode with a horizontal notch enabling the partial energy transfer (PET) option is addressed in this paper. The PET functionality for a given waveguide is realized using the material interface. The energy scattering coefficients are identified using two methods, namely, a hybrid approach, which utilizes the finite element method (FEM) and the general orthogonality relation, and the semi-analytical approach, which combines the modal expansion technique with the orthogonal property of Lamb waves. Using the stress and displacement continuity conditions on the present (sub)waveguide interfaces, one can explicitly derive the global scattering matrix, which allows detailed analysis of the scattering process across the considered interfaces. Both methods are then adopted on a simple representation of a surface breaking crack in the form of a vertical notch, of which a certain section enables not only the reflection of the incident energy, but also its nonzero transfer. The presented results show very good conformity between both utilized approaches, thus leading to further development of an alternative technique.

Abstract:
The interfacial chemistry of an Al/Mg/PET sample, prepared by thermally evaporating first Mg and then Al on to a polyethyleneterephthalate (PET) film, was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The Mg/PET system showed two types of Mg species, namely an O–Mg–C complex, from reaction with the carbonyl group on PET, and metal-like clusters. The deposition of Al results in intermetallic mixing, which is manifested by alloy formation and Mg enrichment at the surface. It appears that some Al atoms penetrate the Mg region to react with carbonyl groups in the PET and form an interfacial complex with O–Al–C bonding. The stability of this sample was studied on exposing it to air and then rinsing it with water. The metal overlayers are strongly modified by these treatments, although the bonding at the PET interface appears relatively unchanged.

Abstract:
As a skeleton material, polyester (PET) fiber can significantly improve the strength and durability of rubber composites, but the interfacial adhesion between polyester fiber and rubber is poor due to the chemical inertia of PET fiber surface. Resorcinol-formaldehyde-latex (RFL) impregnating solution is usually used to treat PET fibers, but RFL contains toxic components such as resorcinol, which is harmful to the human body. A simple and less toxic resin-impregnating system cresol-formaldehyde-latex (CFL) was obtained by alternating resorcinol with low-toxicity cresol and m-cresol formaldehyde resin was synthesized from m-cresol and formaldehyde. CFL (m-cresol formaldehyde resin latex) systems with different C/F mole ratios and CF resin/latex ratios were adopted to modify the surface of PET fibers. The strip peeling adhesive and the H pull-out test results indicated that the PET fiber/rubber adhesion strength increased with the increase in the formaldehyde dosage and the CF resin content, and the peeling force value and the H-pull-out force of treated PET/rubber composites reached 7.3 N/piece and 56.8 N, respectively. The optimal choice of CFL adhesive system was obtained, when the C/F mole ratio was 1/2 and the CF resin/latex weight ratio was 0.23. This environment-friendly CFL dipping emulsion can be used as a new surface modification strategy as it can remarkably enhance the interfacial adhesion of PET/rubber composites.

Abstract:
Saheb is a web-based pet shop application built with Next.js and Firebase, offering pet product sales and online veterinary consultation services. However, Saheb faces challenges in integrating with third-party applications and system efficiency due to its reliance on Firebase. This study aims to design a REST API using Express.js to enhance modularity, integration, and application performance. The research methodology includes literature review, REST API design using layered architecture principles, and JWT authentication implementation. Evaluation shows that the REST API implementation reduced Firebase resource usage by 57.66% and significantly improved website performance, with average reductions in Speed Index, TBT, and LCP times. The integration of the REST API with third-party applications successfully facilitates interaction without direct Firebase connections. The study concludes that the implementation of REST API improves the efficiency, scalability, and performance of the Saheb application, and opens up opportunities for further development.

Abstract:
The material employed in this study is an ecoefficient, environmentally friendly, chromium (VI)-free (noncarcinogenic) metal polymer. The originality of the research lies in the study of the effect of new production procedures of salmon on metal packaging with multilayer polyethylene terephthalate (PET) polymer coatings. Our hypothesis states that the adhesion of postmortem salmon muscles to the PET polymer coating produces surface and structural changes that affect the functionality and limit the useful life of metal containers, compromising therefore their recycling capacity as ecomaterials. This work is focused on studying the effects of the biochemical changes of postmortem salmon on the PET coating and how muscle degradation favors adhesion to the container. The experimental design considered a series of laboratory tests of containers simulating the conditions of canned salmon, chemical and physical tests of food-contact canning to evaluate the adhesion, and characterization of changes in the multilayer PET polymer by electron microscopy, ATR, FT-IR, and Raman spectroscopy analyses. The analyses determined the effect of heat treatment of containers on the loss of freshness of canned fish and the increased adhesion to the container wall, and the limited capability of the urea treatment to remove salmon muscle from the container for recycling purposes.

Abstract:
In this paper, polyethylene glycol (PEG) of various different molecular weights was grafted onto PET films using plasma surface grafting modification. The surface structure of PEG-grafted PET films was analyzed by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), suggesting that the surface structure and composition of PET films changes due to the presence of PEG. Blood compatibility was characterized by in vitro platelet adhesion experiments and coagulation factors. The tests of platelet adhesion and coagulation factors in vitro suggest that PEG grafted onto polymer surfaces can improve the blood compatibility of PET films remarkably. The modified PET films were pre-coated with albumin and fibrinogen respectively; platelet adhesion tests in vitro then indicated that samples pre-coated with albumin have better blood compatibility than with fibrinogen, resulting in the conclusion that the albumin can improve blood compatibility. The contact angle of PEG-grafted films was measured by the sessile drop method and the surface free energy and interface free energy were induced. It is indicated that the PEG-grafted PET films have the characteristic of preferentially adsorbing albumin.

Full text
Abstract:
Background Compression bandage consists of fibrous materials which are viscoelastic in nature due to which the internal stress developed in the compression bandage under wrapped position may decay over time. The viscoelastic behaviour of a textile material depends on the fibre type as well as on its structure, and hence these factors could play a prominent role in interface pressure variation over time. Objective To explore the influence of different materials and varying structures on the interface pressure profile generated by the bandages over time during static state of the limb. Method The material and construction of several compression bandages were engineered first and based on that different knitted bandages were prepared using several yarns (cotton, viscose, polyethylene terephthalate [PET], cotton-Lycra and PET-Lycra) and varying thread density in the structure. Three important factors, namely the material type, the applied tension and the tightness of the structure, were selected to examine their influence on interface pressure variation over time. The interface pressure measurement over time was done using a leg-segment prototype, which allows continuous online measurement of interface pressure over a static mannequin leg. Results More than 40% reduction of interface pressure was obtained for bandages made of spun yarns (cotton or viscose) in eight hours. Reduction of interface pressure for these bandages was higher when wrapped at a higher tension level. Lower reduction of interface pressure was obtained for the sample having higher thread density as compared with lower thread density in the structure, for the same applied tension level during wrapping. Bandages containing elastomeric yarn in the structure showed good sustenance of pressure for longer period. Conclusion Bandages made up of elastic core spun yarns are effective for maintaining uniform interface pressure for longer period due to sustained compression developed by the elastic filament and tight structure of these bandages.

Full text
Abstract:
Recording electrical muscle activity using a dense matrix of detection points (high-density electromyography, EMG) is of interest in a range of different applications, from human-machine interfacing to rehabilitation and clinical assessment. The wider application of high-density EMG is, however, limited as the clinical interfaces are not convenient for practical use (e.g., require conductive gel/cream). In the present study, we describe a novel dry electrode (TEX) in which the matrix of sensing pads is screen printed on textile and then coated with a soft polymer to ensure good skin-electrode contact. To benchmark the novel solution, an identical electrode was produced using state-of-the-art technology (polyethylene terephthalate with hydrogel, PET) and a process that ensured a high-quality sample. The two electrodes were then compared in terms of signal quality as well as functional application. The tests showed that the signals collected using PET and TEX were characterised by similar spectra, magnitude, spatial distribution and signal-to-noise ratio. The electrodes were used by seven healthy subjects and an amputee participant to recognise seven hand gestures, leading to similar performance during offline analysis and online control. The comprehensive assessment, therefore, demonstrated that the proposed textile interface is an attractive solution for practical applications.

Full text
Abstract:
In the field of laser ablation micro-propulsion, the property of double-layer tape has significant impact on the propulsion performance. In this paper, low temperature plasma was used to treat the surface of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) to improve its adhesion with energetic polymer. The PET surface pre- and post-plasma treatment was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), and the enhancement mechanism of the interface adhesion was discussed. In addition, the ablation performance of the double-layer tape after the plasma treatment was studied. The results showed that the plasma etching effect increased the root mean square roughness of the PET surface from 1.74 nm to 19.10 nm. In addition, after the plasma treatment, the number of C–OH/COOH bonds and O=C–O bonds increased, which also greatly improved the adhesion between the PET and energetic polymers. In the optimization of the ablation performance, the optimal laser pulse width was about 200 μs. The optimal values of the specific impulse (Isp), impulse coupling coefficient (Cm), and ablation efficiency (η) were 390.65 s, 250.82 μN/W, and 48.01%, respectively. The optimization of the adhesion of the double-layer tape and the ablation performance lay the foundation for the engineering application of laser ablation micro-thrusters.

Full text
Abstract:
In situ microfibrillation and multiflow vibrate injection molding (MFVIM) technologies were combined to control the phase morphology of blended polypropylene (PP) and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), wherein PP is the majority phase. Four kinds of phase structures were formed using different processing methods. As the PET content changes, the best choice of phase structure also changes. When the PP matrix is unoriented, oriented microfibrillar PET can increase the mechanical properties at an appropriate PET content. However, if the PP matrix is an oriented structure (shish-kebab), only the use of unoriented spherical PET can significantly improve the impact strength. Besides this, the compatibilizer polyolefin grafted maleic anhydride (POE-g-MA) can cover the PET in either spherical or microfibrillar shape to form a core–shell structure, which tends to improve both the yield and impact strength. We focused on the influence of all composing aspects—fibrillation of the dispersed PET, PP matrix crystalline morphology, and compatibilized interface—on the mechanical properties of PP/PET blends as well as potential synergies between these components. Overall, we provided a theoretical basis for the mechanical recycling of immiscible blends.

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of ultra-violet (UV) ray irradiation on the crack formation of brittle ceramic coating on polymer substrate. It is well known that ultra-violet ray irradiation degrades the mechanical properties of polymer and polymer-based coating films. We carried out the tensile tests of PET/ITO film specimen after UV irradiation under the microscope and observed the crack formation on ITO surface. Also, we carried out nano-indentation tests of PET substrate after removing ITO layer to characterize the change of the mechanical properties near the interface between PET and ITO. The results show that the number of cracks vertical to loading direction and the rate of vertical crack formation decreased after UV irradiation. Hardness and Young’s modulus of PET substrate increase due to the oxidation of PET after UV irradiation. To explain the relationship between the crack formation and mechanical property change, the energy release rates of the thin film channeling cracks are considered.

Abstract:
This article employs a feminist science and technology studies perspective to investigate how the cryo-vitality of frozen pet DNA is potentialized and animated. This is accomplished by empirically foregrounding the marketing material and online presence of two genetic pet preservation companies: PerPETuate and ViaGen Pets. While the allure of cryopreservation for pet owners is situated in light of the ability to re-animate and re-entangle biological matter into future (old) pets, the preservation of pet DNA is potentialized through the logics of love, sameness, purity, and kinship. The article shows how preserved dog DNA moves from a rescue discourse in which exceptional kinds of dogs are preserved to a preservation-of-kin discourse in which the preserved pet DNA is narrated in humanist kinship terms. Exploring the ways that pet DNA preservation and culturing is articulated from kin(d) to brand, the study speaks to the human-animal cryo-interface calling for scholarly attention to the emergent businesses in preserving biological material for one’s future use.

Abstract:
A compatibilizer for low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) blends was developed. This compatibilizer consists of amine-functionalized PET, which is blended with maleated polyethylene to form a copolymer. The goal is to use this compatibilizer in the future for recycling plastic waste from the marine environment. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the successful incorporation of amine groups into PET chains through the addition of p-phenylenediamine in a molten state. An increase in diamine content allowed for the visualization of three bands where PET reacted with the diamine. Differential scanning calorimetry suggested that the polyester chains were grafted onto the maleated polyethylene backbone, with crystallinity increasing up to 2.5% diamine content. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images showed that the LDPE/PET blend resulted in a continuous polyethylene matrix with a dispersed polyester phase. The blend compatibilized with modified maleated polyethylene, and functionalized PET exhibited an improved interface. Oscillatory rheology and dynamic mechanical analysis indicated that the developed compatibilizer positively impacted the mechanical properties of the compatibilized LDPE/PET blends. This new approach enables the creation of innovative strategies for enhancing the properties of pre-existing polyolefin/polyester recycled blends.
