  2. 2. Characterization of the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and the influencing parameters of the weld in intravaginal rings

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Ludwig Kaindl; [2020]
    Keywords : Ethylene-vinyl acetate; Intravaginal rings; DSC; Thermal properties EVA; Welding; Pharmaceutical Technology; Läkemedelsteknologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to characterize the mechanical and thermal properties of three different ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) polymers with varying vinyl acetate (VAc) content and to investigate the influential parameters when welding the polymer into intravaginal rings. A second purpose in this study was to compare two different produced EVA polymers with the same VAc content to find thermal and structural differences. READ MORE

  3. 3. Correlations between midsole materials properties, Biomechanics assessment and Field test for running shoes : Industrial project as Footwear polymer material developer at Salomon

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Inard Jordan; [2018]
    Keywords : Footwear; Midsole; Mechanical testing; Biomechanics; Cushioning anticipation; Correlations;

    Abstract : The objective of the work was to establish strong correlations between midsole materials, biomechanics assessment and field test concerning running shoes and thus, for two crucial parameters: cushioning and ride.                A large range of mechanical testing (Shock tower, Compression, Dynamical Mechanical Analysis, Hardness) was carried out on EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) foam planks used in midsoles.
