  1. 1. UV laser patterning of silicone-based soft electrode grids

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Maria Jakobsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Soft electrodes; Wearable electrodes; UV laser; Laser ablation; Laser curing; Polydimethylsiloxane; PDMS; Silver flakes; Teknisk biologi; Teknisk biologi;

    Abstract : Roughly 123 million people worldwide are affected by conditions such as epilepsy, dementia, and cardiovascular diseases. Wearable electrodes are currently used to monitor these conditions short-term. Long-term monitoring would allow for predicting seizures and could be used as a preventive treatment. READ MORE

  2. 2. Short wavelength UV–LED photoinitiated radical polymerization of acrylate–based coating systems—A comparison with conventional UV curing.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturkemi

    Author : Olof Torfgård; [2021]
    Keywords : UV; LED; UVC; UVB; UVA; paint; acrylate; curing; Sherwin–Williams; ATR-FTIR; spectroradiometer; photoinitiator; the mercury arc lamp;

    Abstract : The present work was performed at Sherwin–Williams Sweden group AB with the objective of comparing short-wavelength light emitting diodes (UVB/UVC) with the conventional mercury arc lamp as a curing method of acrylate-based, UV-paint undergoing free-radical polymerization when exposed to UV-radiation. Due to environmental and health risks, mercury-doped radiation sources will be phased out in the near future, according to the United Nations Minamata convention, hence new alternatives are needed.
