1. 1. Synthesis and characterization of lactic acid-based elastomers

   University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

   Author : Afsaneh Makhdoumi; [2023]
   Keywords : Lactic acid; Elastomer; Bio-based elastomer; Renewable resource;

   Abstract : Synthesized polymer from bio-based and renewable resources reported as an attractive substitution for fossil-fuel based polymers. Therefore, this work has focused on using sustainable material for production of elastomers to reduce the environmental impact of fossil-based elastomers and overcome the shortage of non-renewable fuels.

3. 2. Glyoxylic-Modified Lignin for Synthesis of Smart Elastomer and Composite Materials

   University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

   Author : Xinyi Wei; [2023]
   Keywords : Lignin; lignin-based elastomer; nanocomposites; Lignin; ligninbaserad elastomer; nanokompositer;

   Abstract : Sustainable development has become a global goal and the utilization of bioresources is a key way to achieve this crucial goal. Glyoxylic acid-functionalized lignin (GA-lignin) is one of the novel lignin derivatives extracted from beech wood (hardwood) and has great potential to be an industrially important bioresource.

4. 3. Developing a method for insertion of soft neural probes into peripheral nerves

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Laboratoriet för organisk elektronik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

   Author : Klara Melander; [2022]
   Keywords : Intraneural stimulation; insertion method; peripheral nerve; nerve phantom; peripheral nerve stimulation; Teknisk biologi; Teknisk biologi;

   Abstract : The main objective of this project was to develop a method for soft neural probe insertion into a nerve. These soft probes are made of a silicon elastomer that is a few orders of magnitude less stiff than the nerve, which makes the insertion process particularly challenging. READ MORE

5. 4. Verification of elastomer characteristics in electro-mechanical linear actuator

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Rohit Karmungikar; [2022]
   Keywords : ANSYS; Aging; Hyperelastic; MATLAB and Mooney-Rivlin; ANSYS; Åldrande; Hyperelastic; MATLAB och Mooney-Rivlin;

   Abstract : Cascade Drives develops electromechanical actuators using a rack and pinion configuration to achieve a combination of high load and high-speed operation. A patented load distribution mechanism enables the use of multiple pinions on a single rack, resulting in a compact unit with high positional accuracy capable of absorbing shock loads. READ MORE

6. 5. An Optimization Framework for Elastomer Machine Tools

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

   Author : Love Montan Larsson; [2022]
   Keywords : Polyurethane; Elastomer; packaging industry; Design of Experiments; Finite Element Analysis; Response Surface Methodology; multiple linear regression analysis; Additive Manufacturing.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A framework for optimizing the design of elastomer packaging machine tools, so­ called plunge tools, has been developed and has reached a proof­of­concept state in this thesis. The framework indicates the capability of decreasing prototype expenses and total development time of new plunge tools by roughly three times compared to the existing iterative design methodology.
