These functions are accomplished through the exchange of budgetary and planning information among program managers and through technical meetings/workshops on selected topics involving both DOE and major contractors. In addition, EMaCC assists in obtaining materials-related inputs for both intra- and interagency compilations. Six topical subcommittees have been established to focus on materials areas of particular importance to the Department; the subcommittees and their respective chairmen are: Electrochemical Technologies - Richard Kelly, ER-132, (301) 903-6051 Metals and Intermetallics - Matthew McMonigle, CE-231, (202) 586-2082 Radioactive Waste Containers - Alan Berusch, RW-22, (202) 586-9362 Semiconductors - Jerry Smith, ER-132, (301) 903-4269 Structural Ceramics - Charles Sorrell, CE-232, (202) 586-1514 Superconductivity - James Daley, CE-142, (202) 586-1165 Membership in the EMaCC is open to any Department organizational unit; participants are appointed by Division or Office Directors. The current active membership is listed on the following four pages. The EMaCC reports to the Director of the Office of Energy Research in his capacity as overseer of the technical programs of the Department. This annual technical report is mandated by the EMaCC terms of reference.

  • Polymers and Supercritical
    Polymers and Supercritical CO2 - An invention to new polymer processing technologies - On-line Number 5017 Masahiro Ohshima Department of Chemical Engineering, Kyoto University, Nishikyo-ku, Kyoto, 615-8510, Japan E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Supercritical CO2 (sc-CO2) is being utilized for various polymers processing such as polymer blending, additive impregnation and plastic foaming. When CO2 dissolves into polymers, the polymer chain mobility is enhanced and rheological and thermal properties of the polymer are changed. In this talk, the solubility and the diffusivity of CO2 in the polymer as well as the CO2-induced polymer property (i.e., plasticization effects), such as reduction of glass transition temperature and viscosity, are shown with experimental data. Then, CO2 microcellular polymeric foaming, a CO2 aided additive infusion and polymer surface modification schemes are introduced to illustrate the potential of CO2 creating new polymer processing techniques. KEYWORDS Super critical fluid, carbon dioxide, plasticization effect, polymer, foams, and surface modification INTRODUCTION Carbon dioxide (CO2) becomes supercritical at pressures and temperatures above 7.38 MPa and o 31.1 C. At the supercritical condition, the CO2 has a higher diffusion coefficient and a lower viscosity than liquids and the surface tension becomes absent, which allows a rapid penetration of molecule into the pores of heterogeneous matrices. Taking advantage of these characteristics together with its nontoxicity, nonflammability and inexpensiveness, CO2 has been used in a variety of industries, i.e., food, pharmaceutical, fiber, chemical and plastic industries (Berens et al, 1992; Schnitzler et al, 1999). At the beginning of the research on the supercritical fluids, the focus was mainly on extraction and separation of small molecules by the fluids.

  • Processing and Characterization of Polycarbonate Foams with Supercritical
    PROCESSING AND CHARACTERIZATION OF POLYCARBONATE FOAMS WITH SUPERCRITICAL CO2 AND 5-PHENYL-1H-TETRAZOLE Thomas Cloarec, B.S. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2015 APPROVED: Witold Brostow, Major Professor Samir Aouadi, Committee Member Nandika A. D’Souza, Committee Member Richard F. Reidy, Committee Member Cloarec, Thomas. Processing and Characterization of Polycarbonate Foams with Supercritical Co2 and 5-Phenyl-1h-Tetrazole. Master of Science (Materials Science and Engineering), May 2015, 100 pp., 11 tables, 59 figures, references, 5 titles. Since their discovery in the 1930s, polymeric foams have been widely used in the industry for a variety of applications such as acoustical and thermal insulation, filters, absorbents etc. The reason for this ascending trend can be attributed to factors such as cost, ease of processing and a high strength to weight ratio compared to non-foamed polymers. The purpose of this project was to develop an “indestructible” material made of polycarbonate (PC) for industrial applications. Due to the high price of polycarbonate, two foaming methods were investigated to reduce the amount of material used. Samples were foamed physically in supercritical CO2 or chemically with 5-phenyl-1H-tetrazole. After thermal characterization of the foams in differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), we saw that none of the foaming methods had an influence on the glass transition of polycarbonate. Micrographs taken in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that foams obtained in physical and chemical foaming had different structures. Indeed, samples foamed in supercritical CO2 exhibited a microcellular opened-cell structure with a high cell density and a homogeneous cell distribution.

    Engineering a Successful Mission: Lessons from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Presentation at the Supply Chain 2011 Conference October 19, 2011 David Everett, NASA GSFC Abstract • Engineering a Successful Mission: Lessons from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter • Abstract—Schedule pressure is common in the commercial world, where late delivery of a product means delayed income and loss of profit. Research spacecraft developed by NASA, on the other hand, tend to be driven by the high cost of launch vehicles and the public scrutiny of failure--the primary driver is ensuring proper operation in space for a system that cannot be retrieved for repair. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) development faced both schedule pressure and high visibility. The team had to balance the strong push to meet a launch date against the need to ensure that this first mission for Exploration succeeded. This presentation will provide an overview of the mission from concept through its first year of operation and explore some of the challenges the systems engineering team faced taking a mission from preliminary design review to pre-ship review in 3 years. 2 10/19/11, Supply Chain 2011, LRO, D.
