Short Report on the Effect of Atmospheric Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma Processing to Control the Capillary Flow in Polymer based Microfluidic Devices
Abstract: In this experimental work, a couple of microfluidic devices are fabricated by polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) using the maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography and direct bonding technique. One device is fabricated by pristine PMMA, and the other device is fabricated by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma processed PMMA. Dyed water is selected and prepared as working liquid. Each surface-driven capillary flow of dyed water is recorded by a CMOS camera. This work …

Investigation on Catalyst Selection for Polymerization Processes in Petrochemical Industries
Abstract: Organic polymers are long-chain compounds made of several repeating units. These polymers are either natural, such as protein, cellulose, starch or synthetic, such as polyethylene (a plastic), polyesters and polyamides (plastics and fibers) and polybutadiene (rubber).Many organic compounds possessing multiple bonds have the tendency to polymerize in the presence of an initiator. Polymerization of these compounds can either be affected by the use of chemical initiators such as free radicals …

Short Report on the Polymer based Microfluidic Device Fabricated by Lithographic Techniques
Abstract: In this experimental work, a single microfluidic device is fabricated by maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography and direct bonding technique inside the cleanroom laboratory. Microchannel bend is the selected design to fabricate the microfluidic device. Dyed ethanol is selected and prepared as working liquid. The surface-driven capillary flow of dyed ethanol is recorded in the fabricated microchannel bend using a CMOS camera inside the materials-science laboratory. Effect of centrifugal force …

Cords of tyres to shed hybridization
Abstract: AbstractCords of tyres have descriptive issues for mechanical stability, break at elongation strength and dimensions. Two polymer reinforced cord form has lying usage from nylon and polyester to search respects for hybridized contributed formation after form from chords. Poly(ethylene naphthalate)-in-polyester yarn or aramid-in-nylonhybrid has provisioned steel cord substitution to raise steer-in-speed at subjective low-in-weight shed. Competencies among as routed fabrics under differential twisting has almost similar break-in-twist strengths as well …
