Effects of Crosslinking and Silicone Coupling Agent on Properties of EVA Composite Hot Melt Adhesive.

ABSTRACT: In order to improve the bonding performance, EVA composite hot melt adhesives were prepared by introducing crosslinking agent and silane coupling agent in this paper. A binary EVA resin blend as the base resin with appropriate viscosity and tensile shear strength was selected as hot melt adhesive. The effects of crosslinking agent and silane coupling agent on the properties of ethylene/vinyl acetate (EVA) composite hot melt adhesive were studied. By investigating the preparation and curing conditions of hot melt adhesive and the properties of hot melt adhesive after the introduction of dicumyl peroxide (DCP), the optimum temperature and dosage of DCP and its influence on the properties were determined. It was found that the tensile shear strength of hot melt adhesive increased from 0.247 MPa to 0.726 MPa when 2 phr DCP and 5 phr KH570 were added at the same time. The tensile strength and tensile shear strength of hot melt adhesive are only slightly improved when silicone coupling agents with different functional groups are added to EVA composite hot melt adhesive. However, it was found that excessive silane coupling agent would significantly reduce the tensile strength and shear peel strength of the material.

Hot-melt Adhesive Bonding of Polyurethane/Fluorinated Polyurethane/Alkylsilane-Functionalized Graphene Nanofibrous Fabrics with Enhanced Waterproofness, Breathability, and Mechanical Properties.

Project description:Waterproof-breathable (WB) materials with outstanding waterproofness, breathability, and mechanical performance are critical in diverse consumer applications. Electrospun nanofibrous membranes with thin fiber diameters, small pore sizes, and high porosity have attracted significant attention in the WB fabric field. Hot-press treatment technology can induce the formation of inter-fiber fusion structures and hence improve the waterproofness and mechanical performance. By combining electrospinning and hot-press treatment technology, polyurethane/fluorinated polyurethane/thermoplastic polyurethane/alkylsilane-functionalized graphene (PU/FPU/TPU/FG) nanofiber WB fabric was fabricated. Subsequently, the morphologies, porous structure, hydrostatic pressure, water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), and stress-strain behavior of the nanofiber WB fabric were systematically investigated. The introduction of the hydrophobic FG sheet structure and the formation of the inter-fiber fusion structure greatly improved not only the waterproofness but also the mechanical performance of the nanofiber WB fabric. The optimized PU/FPU/TPU-50/FG-1.5 WB fabric exhibited an excellent comprehensive performance: a high hydrostatic pressure of 80.4 kPa, a modest WVTR of 7.6 kg m-2 d-1, and a robust tensile stress of 127.59 MPa, which could be used to achieve various applications. This work not only highlights the preparation of materials, but also provides a high-performance nanofiber WB fabric with huge potential application prospects in various fields.

Substantial Effect of Water on Radical Melt Crosslinking and Rheological Properties of Poly(ε-Caprolactone).

Project description:One-step reactive melt processing (REx) via radical reactions was evaluated with the aim of improving the rheological properties of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL). In particular, a water-assisted REx was designed under the hypothesis of increasing crosslinking efficiency with water as a low viscous medium in comparison with a slower PCL macroradicals diffusion in the melt state. To assess the effect of dry vs. water-assisted REx on PCL, its structural, thermo-mechanical and rheological properties were investigated. Water-assisted REx resulted in increased PCL gel fraction compared to dry REx (from 1-34%), proving the rationale under the formulated hypothesis. From dynamic mechanical analysis and tensile tests, the crosslink did not significantly affect the PCL mechanical performance. Dynamic rheological measurements showed that higher PCL viscosity was reached with increasing branching/crosslinking and the typical PCL Newtonian behavior was shifting towards a progressively more pronounced shear thinning. A complete transition from viscous- to solid-like PCL melt behavior was recorded, demonstrating that higher melt elasticity can be obtained as a function of gel content by controlled REx. Improvement in rheological properties offers the possibility of broadening PCL melt processability without hindering its recycling by melt processing.

Coupling Additive Manufacturing with Hot Melt Extrusion Technologies to Validate a Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia Mouse Model.

Project description:Additive manufacturing is widely used to produce highly complex structures. Moreover, this technology has proven its superiority in producing tools which can be used in different applications. We designed and produced an extrusion nozzle that allowed us to hot melt extrude drug-loaded tubes. The tubes were an essential part of a new mouse ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) model. Ciprofloxacin (CPX) was selected for its expected activity against the pathogen Staphylococcus aureus and ease of incorporation into thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). TPU was selected as the carrier polymer for its biocompatibility and use in a variety of medical devices such as tubing and catheters. The effect of loading CPX within the TPU polymeric matrix and the physicochemical properties of the produced tubes were investigated. CPX showed good thermal stability and in vitro activity in preventing S. aureus biofilm formation after loading within the tube's polymeric matrix. Moreover, the produced tubes showed anti-infective efficacy in vivo. The produced tubes, which were extruded via our novel nozzle, were vital for the validation of our mouse VAP model. This model can be adopted to investigate other antibacterial and antibiofilm compounds incorporated in polymeric tubes using hot melt extrusion.

One-Step Preparation of Adhesive Composite Hydrogels through Fast and Simultaneous In Situ Formation of Silver Nanoparticles and Crosslinking.

Project description:In this study, a series of gelatin/silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) composite hydrogels are prepared for the first time through the facile in situ formation of AgNPs. AgNPs, which are formed by reducing Ag+ using dopamine-conjugated gelatins. These can simultaneously crosslink gelatin molecules, thus generating three-dimentional and porous hydrogels. The gelation time and pore sizes of these composite hydrogels can be controlled by controlling the feeding concentration of AgNO3 and weight content of gelatin in water, respectively. The feeding concentration of AgNO3 also has an effect on the equilibrium swelling ratio of the hydrogels. Moreover, these composite hydrogels, with a controllable gelation time and in situ forming ability, exhibit good adhesive properties and can be used as drug-release depots.

A heat-melt adhesive-assisted transferable electrode films.

Project description:This report is the first on heat-assisted transferable battery components, enabling manufacturing batteries on non-planer surfaces such as a curved surface and an edge. The transferrable battery components were composed of two layers: a cathode or an anode and a conductive heal-melt adhesive layer on a silicone-based flexible supporting paper. These mechanically-durable, flexible components enabled conformable adhesion even on curved surfaces and substrate edges. As a model battery, the manganese dioxide-zinc system was constructed on a curved surface using transfer techniques and showed a practical capacity of 1.8 mAh cm-2 per unit electrode area. These transferable electrodes allow arbitrary design of batteries according to the power consumption of IoT devices to be fabricated on unreported geometries where has been considered as a dead space.

Hypromellose acetate succinate based amorphous solid dispersions via hot melt extrusion: Effect of drug physicochemical properties.

Project description:In this study, the impact of drug and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS) grades physicochemical properties on extrusion process, dissolution and stability of the hot melt extruded amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) of nifedipine and efavirenz was investigated. Incorporation of drugs affected the extrusion temperature required for solid dispersion preparation. Differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffraction studies confirmed the amorphous conversion of the drugs in the prepared formulations. The amorphous nature of ASDs was unchanged after 3 months of stability testing at 40 °C and 75% relative humidity. The dissolution efficiency of the ASDs was dependent on the log P of the drug. The inhibitory effect of HPMCAS on drug precipitation was dependent on the hydrophobic interactions between drug and polymer, polymer grade, and dose of the drug. The dissolution efficiency and dissolution rate of the ASDs were dependent on the log P of the drug and solubility and hydrophilicity of the polymer grade respectively. The inhibitory effect of HPMCAS on drug precipitation was dependent on the hydrophobic interactions between drug and polymer, polymer grade, and the dissolution dose of the drug.

Impact of Surface Properties of Core Material on the Stability of Hot Melt-Coated Multiparticulate Systems.

Project description:Hot melt coating (HMC) of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) powder with lipid-based excipients is an innovative method for manufacturing patient-convenient dosage forms. However, drug release instability is still its main industrial challenge. The correlation between the unstable pharmaceutical product performance with the solid-state alteration of lipids is currently well-investigated. The remaining problem is the inconsistent release alteration of different APIs coated with the same lipid after storage, such as faster release in some cases and slower release in others. The interaction between API surface and lipid-based coating and its alteration during storage were investigated in this work. The surface properties of five different APIs and the coating composition of tripalmitin and polysorbate 65 were screened via Washburn and pendant drop methods, respectively. Metformin hydrochloride and hydrochlorothiazide particles were each coated with the coating composition. The water sorption alteration of coated particles and the crystal growth of tripalmitin in the coating after storage were measured via tensiometry and X-ray diffraction. The cleavage work necessary to overcome the adhesion of coating composition on the core surface was calculated for each API. The accelerated release of the polar core (metformin) after storage was correlated with a low cleavage work and a distinctive phase separation. In contrast, a decelerated release of the hydrophobic core (hydrochlorothiazide) was favored by the crystal growth of the lipid-based coating. The gained knowledge can be used to design the product stability during the formulation development.

Effect of Ultrasonic Vibration on Adhesive Bonding of CFRP/Al Alloy Joints Grafted with Silane Coupling Agent.

Project description:Adhesive bonding is widely used in the joining of metals and carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs). Ultrasonic vibration was used to improve adhesive bonding of CFRP/Al alloy joints grafted with silane coupling agent, and the effect of the ultrasound on the bonding was studied. The surface of Al alloy was treated with a silane coupling agent, and then the ultrasonic vibration was applied on the adherend during the adhesive bonding process. The shear strength was tested, and the mechanism was analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR). It is found that the ultrasonic assisting can further promote the bonding of the Al alloy and the adhesive. For the test joins, the shear strength was increased by 267.50% using the silanization treatment plus the ultrasonic assisting. The ultrasonic assisting promoted the grafted epoxy group to react with the adhesive more sufficiently at the Al/adhesive interface by causing micro-mixing and intensified molecule collision, and thus more chemical bond was formed. Under the ultrasonic action, the interface and the adhesive layer became tighter owing to the impact contact at the interface and the oscillating flow in the adhesive layer. The ultrasonic vibration assisting increased the bonding strength by promoting the chemical bond and improving physical morphology.

Design of tough adhesive from commodity thermoplastics through dynamic crosslinking.

Project description:Tough adhesives provide resistance against high debonding forces, and these adhesives are difficult to design because of the simultaneous requirement of strength and ductility. Here, we report a design of tough reversible/recyclable adhesive materials enabled by incorporating dynamic covalent bonds of boronic ester into commodity triblock thermoplastic elastomers that reversibly bind with various fillers and substrates. The spectroscopic measurements and density functional theory calculations unveil versatile dynamic covalent binding of boronic ester with various hydroxy-terminated surfaces such as silica nanoparticles, aluminum, steel, and glass. The designed multiphase material exhibits exceptionally high adhesion strength and work of debonding with a rebonding capability, as well as outstanding mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance properties. Bonding and debonding at the interfaces dictate hybrid material properties, and this revelation of tailored dynamic interactions with multiple interfaces will open up a new design of adhesives and hybrid materials.

Enhanced Heat Resistance of Acrylic Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive by Incorporating Silicone Blocks Using Silicone-Based Macro-Azo-Initiator.

Project description:To improve the heat resistance of acrylic-based pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA), silicone-block-containing acrylic PSAs (SPSAs) were synthesized using a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-based macro-azo-initiator (MAI). To evaluate the heat resistance of the PSA films, the probe tack and 90° peel strength were measured at different temperatures. The acrylic PSA showed that its tack curves changed from balanced debonding at 25 °C to cohesive debonding at 50 °C and exhibited a sharp decrease. However, in the case of SPSA containing 20 wt% MAI (MAI20), the balanced debonding was maintained at 75 °C, and its tack value hardly changed with temperature. As the MAI content increased, the peel strength at 25 °C decreased due to the microphase separation between PDMS- and acryl-blocks in SPSA, but the shear adhesion failure temperature (SAFT) increased almost linearly from 41.3 to 122.8 °C. Unlike stainless steel substrate, SPSA showed improved peel strength on a polypropylene substrate due to its low surface energy caused by PDMS block. Owing to the addition of 20 wt% silicone-urethane dimethacrylate oligomer and 200 mJ/cm2 UV irradiation dose, MAI20 showed significantly increased 90° peel strength at 25 °C (548.3 vs. 322.4 gf/25 mm for pristine MAI20). Its heat resistance under shear stress assessed by shear adhesion failure test (SAFT) exhibited raising in failure temperature to 177.3 °C when compared to non-irradiated sample.
