Validation and modification of WAVE spray model for diesel combustion simulation

In CFD simulation of diesel combustion, the predictive capabilities of the spray model play the most important role. Consequently, under the strict guidelines of the V&V, a method to adjust parameters of diesel spray model WAVE to accompany with the in-cylinder physical progress has been investigated in this paper. Moreover, the simulation of the spray has been validated by high-speed photography experiments and verified by the equation proposed by Hiroyasu. Finally, a modified setup for the WAVE spray model has been proposed and applied in the spray and combustion simulation for Deutz1013 diesel in different engine speed.     

Grafting of maleic anhydride onto polyethylene through a green chemistry approach

The grafting of a polymer can lead to the improvement and modification of the polymer and thus expand its applications. Grafting methods include solution grafting in organic solvents, melt grafting at high temperatures, and light grafting with radioactive sources. These methods have their advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantages include waste treatment, consumption of energy, and so on. In this study, a hydrothermal process which is called the green approach, was developed to prepare graft copolymers. The effect of various factors on the grafting degree was investigated in detail. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008     

Preparation of branched polyacrylonitrile through self‐condensing vinyl copolymerization

Branched polyacrylonitrile (PAN) was prepared through a self‐condensing vinyl copolymerization of acrylonitrile and 2‐(2‐bromopropionyloxy)ethyl acrylate (BPEA). The branched architecture of the product was confirmed by NMR spectra and the average degree of branching (DB ) was estimated. Through a comparison of the intrinsic viscosity of the product with that of its linear analogue, the contraction factor g′ was calculated. It was found that the viscosity of the branched PAN was obviously lower that that of linear PAN. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008     

Molecular packing and phase transitions of side-chain liquid crystalline polymethacrylates based on p-methoxyazobenzene

The phase structures and transition behaviors of a series of side-chain liquid crystalline (LC) polymethacrylates based on p-methoxyazobenzene (PMnAzs, n = 6, 8, 10, 12) were studied using differential scanning calorimetry, one- and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) wide-angle X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic experiments. The LC phase transition of PMnAz follows the sequence of smectic A (SmA) ? nematic (N) ? isotropic (I). For PM10Az and PM12Az, the transition of SmA-to-N is not complete upon heating. In the low-temperature SmA phase, the polymers adopt a fully interdigitated side-chain packing with the smectic layer period almost identical to the side-chain length. For all the four samples, the first-order diffraction of the SmA structure only renders when the temperature approaches the transition of SmA ? N, with the intensity much lower than that of the second-order diffraction. The absence of the first-order diffraction at low temperatures is ascribed to the possible matching of the electron densities between the center portion of the side-chain sublayer and the main-chain sublayer of the SmA structure. Since only the mesogens from the same main-chain sublayer can stack parallel together, the distribution of the azobenzene domains may cause some sort of density undulation within the smectic layer. Among the samples, PM6Az presents the strongest undulation with some additional orders. We also examined the annealing effect on the H-aggregation of PMnAzs. It is found that isothermal annealing at a temperature slightly higher than the T_g of PM8Az and PM10Az can significantly enhance the UV absorption at 326 nm, indicating a further development of H-aggregation. However, for PM6Az and PM12Az, the UV–vis spectrum of the annealed sample is nearly identical to that without annealing.     

Accelerated wear testing with a microfabricated surface to evaluate the lubrication ability of biomolecules on polyethylene

Wear of ultrahigh‐molecular‐weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and wear‐particle‐induced osteolysis and bone resorption are the major factors causing the failure of total joint replacements. It is feasible to improve the lubrication and reduce the wear of artificial joints. We need further understanding of the lubrication mechanism of the synovial fluid. The objective of this study is to evaluate the lubricating ability of three major components in the synovial fluid: albumin, globulin, and phospholipids. An accelerated wear testing procedure in which UHMWPE is rubbed against a microfabricated surface with controlled asperities has been developed to evaluate the lubrication behavior. An analysis of the wear particle dimensions and wear amount of the tests has provided insights for comparing their lubrication performance. It is concluded that the presence of biomolecules at the articulating interface may reduce friction. A higher concentration of a biological lubricant leads to a decrease in the wear particle width. In addition, in combination with the wear results and mechanical analysis, the roles of individual biomolecules contributing to friction and wear at the articulating interface are discussed. These results can help us to identify the role of the biomolecules in the boundary lubrication of artificial joints, and further development of lubricating additives for artificial joints may be feasible. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Development of an end-point detector for parylene deposition process

Parylene is an emerging material for MEMS. It is an organic material that is grown by using the chemical vapor deposition method at room temperature. The deposition thickness is commonly controlled by the amount of solid-phase dimer loaded in a sublimation chamber. In a conventional deposition machine, the end point of the process is designated by the moment the dimer is exhausted. However, this end-of-process criterion does not offer precise, repeatable control of film thickness. We present the results of the development of an in situ end-point detector for a Parylene chemical vapor deposition process. The detector is based on the thermal transfer principle and can be implemented on commercial parylene deposition systems with minimal system modification. Such a sensor enables a user to stop the deposition when a targeted thickness is reached. The end point detector is very simple to implement on existing parylene deposition systems. A series of such sensors with different target deposition thickness would allow extraction of the actual deposition rate within a deposition run.

Preparation and Characterization of Carboxymethyl Chitosan and β-Cyclodextrin Microspheres by Spray Drying

Three kinds of carboxymethyl chitosan/β-cyclodextrin microspheres loaded with theophylline were prepared by spray drying intended for pulmonary delivery. Mucociliotoxicity, permeation rate, and drug release characteristics of the product were investigated. The microspheres obtained by spray drying were found to be spherical with smooth or wrinkled surfaces. The mean particle size was between 3.39 and 6.06 µm. The microspheres demonstrated high product yield (43.7-50.2%), high drug loading (13.7-38.1%), and high encapsulation efficiency (86.9-92.8%). FT-IR indicated that there were interactions of theophylline with carboxymethyl chitosan matrix. Further studies on mucociliotoxicity and permeation confirmed that microspheres had better adaptability and high permeation rate. In vitro drug release from the microspheres was not related to the drug/polymer ratios.
