Iancu Bacalu, nr.3, Iasi-700029, Romania; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +40-232-217454 Received: 14 August 2019; Accepted: 25 September 2019; Published: 27 September 2019 Abstract: Polyimides (PIs) represent a benchmark for high-performance polymers on the basis of a remarkable collection of valuable traits and accessible production pathways and therefore have incited serious attention from the ever-demanding medical field. Their characteristics make them suitable for service in hostile environments and purification or sterilization by robust methods, as requested by most biomedical applications. Even if PIs are generally regarded as “biocompatible”, proper analysis and understanding of their biocompatibility and safe use in biological systems deeply needed. This mini-review is designed to encompass some of the most robust available research on the biocompatibility of various commercial or noncommercial PIs and to comprehend their potential in the biomedical area. Therefore, it considers (i) the newest concepts in the field, (ii) the chemical, (iii) physical, or (iv) manufacturing elements of PIs that could affect the subsequent biocompatibility, and, last but not least, (v) in vitro and in vivo biocompatibility assessment and (vi) reachable clinical trials involving defined polyimide structures. The main conclusion is that various PIs have the capacity to accommodate in vivo conditions in which they are able to function for a long time and can be judiciously certified as biocompatible.

  • Chapter 1 POLYIMIDES
    Chapter 1 POLYIMIDES: chemistry & structure-property relationships – literature review 1.1 Introduction Polyimides are a class of thermally stable polymers that are often based on stiff aromatic backbones. The chemistry of polyimides is in itself a vast area with a large variety of monomers available and several methodologies available for synthesis. However, there has been considerable debate on the various reaction mechanisms involved in different synthesis methods. This review however, covers only the important fundamentals regarding the polyimide synthesis. The focus in this review will rest only on ‘aromatic’ polyimides as they constitute the major category of such materials. Secondly, the properties of polyimides can be dramatically altered by minor variations in the structure. The subtle variations in the structures of the dianhydride and diamine components have a tremendous effect on the properties of the final polyimide. This chapter reviews several such features that are important towards understanding these structure-property relationships. Specifically, the effects of changing the diamines, dianhydrides or the overall flexibility of the chain on the basic parameters like Tg and Tm are also examined. 1.2 Two step method for polyimide synthesis The most widely practiced procedure in polyimide synthesis is the two-step poly(amic acid) process. It involves reacting a dianhydride and a diamine at ambient conditions in a dipolar aprotic solvent such as N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) or N- methylpyrrolidinone (NMP) to yield the corresponding poly(amic acid), which is then CHAPTER 1 3 cyclized into the final polyimide. This process involving a soluble polymer precursor was pioneered by workers at Dupont1 in 1950’s, and to this day, continues to be the primary route by which most polyimides are made.

X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis evidenced an intercalated structure for PS/organoclay nanocomposites. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated improvement in the thermal stability of PS-nanocomposites compared to the pristine polymer. This enhancement was more prevalent for the nanocomposites prepared with a lab-made organoclay (orgZenith). Citation: Ladavos, A.; Giannakas, Tensile measurement results indicated that elastic modulus increment was more prevalent (up to A.E.; Xidas, P.; Giliopoulos, D.J.; 50%) for microcomposites prepared using mesoporous silicas as filler.

Introduction There are a myriad of foams available on the market for thousands of different applications; every foam has different physical characteristics that define how that foam will perform in any given application. When selecting the right foam, the first characteristic to define is the physical function of the foam. Does the foam need to cushion a specific part from shock or jolt, insulate to contain heat or cool air, or control sound? Raw physical polymer properties of a given foam determine which particular foam is best suited for specific applica- tions or environments. Close-cell foams are used in applications that require moisture isolation or blocking. Open-cell foams are ideal for enhanced absorption as well as filtration of dust particles while allowing the passage of gases.

  • Recent Advances in Recyclable Thermoset Polymers
    Recent Advances in Recyclable Thermoset Polymers Brittany Walker Literature Seminar October 30, 2014 Thermoset polymers have attracted considerable attention over the past few decades and significant advances have been made within the last five years towards the development of new thermoset polymers with facile recycling properties.1 Linear polymers, commonly called thermoplastics, typically have easily accessible melting points and can be reprocessed and recycled using heat, but are not durable enough for many high performance applications. One example of this type of thermoplastic polymer is polyethylene terephthalate (PET), the material used to make Coke® bottles. Covalently cross-linked polymers, commonly called thermosets, typically have superior dimensional stability, high-temperature mechanical, thermal, and environmental resistance. Thus, they do not have melting points and therefore are not easily processed using conventional thermoplastic recycling methods. One example of this type of thermoset polymer is polyimide (PI), which is used in printed circuit boards and in modern aircraft body parts. Consequently, it is often more cost-effective to discard these thermosetting polymers and composites in landfills than it is to attempt to recycle them through the thermal or mechanical routes shown in Figure 1.2 Furthermore, thermosetting polymers are mainly derived from petrochemicals, which are finite resources.

  • The Space Exposure Experiment of PEEK Sheets Under Tensile Stress∗
    365 The Space Exposure Experiment of PEEK Sheets under Tensile Stress∗ Takashi NAKAMURA∗∗, Hiroshi NAKAMURA∗∗, Osamu FUJITA∗∗, Toru NOGUCHI∗∗ and Kichiro IMAGAWA∗∗∗ To find out the degradation behavior of polymer in the real space, space exposure ex- periments utilizing the International Space Station (ISS) were scheduled. PEEK sheets under tensile stresses were exposed to the environment around the ISS orbit, and were irradiated by atomic oxygen (AO), ultraviolet ray, and electron beam (EB) in the ground test facility. This study introduces the outline of these experiments, and shows the results of AO and EB pilot irradiation tests as follows: (1) Test piece surfaces after AO exposure exhibited significant morphological damages characterized by micron-sized conical pits. (2) Thickness reduc- tions of the test pieces by AO exposure increased with increasing tensile stress. (3) Residual strength after AO exposure could be estimated by taking account of thickness reduction. (4) No significant change was observed on surface morph, mass, chemical structure, and tensile properties of the test pieces after EB exposure regardless of tensile stress.

Since this substrate type implies certain challenges in comparison with their rigid electronic companions, it is of utmost importance to investigate the application of materials for generating the electronic functions on the textile substrate. Only when interaction of materials and textile substrate is fully understood, the electronic function can be generated on the textile without changing the textile’s properties, being flexible or stretchable. This research deals with the optimization of the dielectric layer in a fibrous organic field effect transistor (OFET).
