  1. 11. Development and Evaluation of Textile Actuators

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Biosensorer och bioelektronik

    Author : Fredrik Ekman; [2016]
    Keywords : Conducting Polymer; Textile; Actuator; Soft Robotics;

    Abstract : Existing actuators in robotics are noisy, rigid and not very lifelike in their movements. There is a need for actuators in especially limb prosthetics and exoskeletons that are silent, softly moving and preferably operating on low currents. One such solution is the conducting polymers.

  3. 12. Determination and implementation of polymer parameters into simulations of the twin-screw extrusion process.

    University essay from Högskolan i Jönköping/JTH, Maskinteknik

    Author : Marcus Strandberg; [2015]
    Keywords : Polymers; melt flow rate; density; heat; viscosity; standard; measurements; machine; extrusion; simulation; properties.;

    Abstract : This thesis was conducted in cooperation with a Swedish company that develops and manufactures plastic compounds. An increasing need for identifying material properties is seen within the industry in order to predict the outcome of the extrusion process by using simulations. READ MORE

  4. 13. Patterning of Highly Conductive Conjugated Polymers for Actuator Fabrication

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Biosensorer och bioelektronik

    Author : Daniel Falk; [2015]
    Keywords : Biosensors; Bioelectronics; Microactuators; Conjugated polymers; Polypyrrole; PEDOT; Soft Lithography; Microcontact printing; Vapor phase polymerization; Drop-on-Demand printing; Photolithography; Lift-off;

    Abstract : Trilayer polypyrrole microactuators that can operate in air have previously been developed. They consist of two outer layers ofthe electroactive polymer polypyrrole (PPy) and one inner layer of a porous poly(vinylidene flouride) (PVDF) membranecontaining a liquid electrolyte. READ MORE

  5. 14. Synthesis and electrochemical characterisation of processable polypyrrole boronic acid derivatives for carbohydrate binding

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Biosensorer och bioelektronik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Kalle Bunnfors; [2015]
    Keywords : Conducting polymers; polypyrrole; boronic acid; carbohydrates; reagent-free detection.;

    Abstract : Conducting polymers have been widely explored for many different purposes including sensing. In thisthesis the conducive properties of pyrrole and the carbohydrate binding properties of boronic acid iscombined to make a reagent-free detector for carbohydrates. READ MORE
