  • The Influence of Electron Beam Irradiation on the Property Behaviour of Medical Grade Poly (Ether-Block-Amide) (PEBA)
    Australian Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 7(5): 174-181, 2013 ISSN 1991-8178 The Influence Of Electron Beam Irradiation On The Property Behaviour Of Medical Grade Poly (Ether-Block-Amide) (PEBA) 1Kieran A. Murray, 1James E.Kennedy, 2Brian McEvoy, 2Olivier Vrain, 2Damien Ryan, 2Richard Cowman and 1Clement L. Higginbotham 1Materials Research Institute, Athlone Institute of Technology, Dublin Road, Athlone, Co. Westmeath, Ireland 2 Synergy Health Applied Sterilisation Technologies, IDA Business & Technology Park, Sragh, Tullamore, Co. Offaly, Ireland Abstract: The aim of this paper is to investigate the potential effects of electron beam, ranging between 5 and 200kGy for unstabilised Poly (ether-block-amide) (Pebax) material. The Pebax samples were subjected to a wide range of extensive characterisation techniques in order to identify any modifications to the material properties. The results demonstrated that a series of changes occurred and some of these included a reduction in the mechanical properties and melting strength, an increase in the molecular weight and viscosity and alterations to surface characteristics of the material. Overall, this study provided evidence that electron beam irradiation lead to the development of simultaneous crosslinking and chain scission in the Pebax material, where crosslinking/branching became the dominating factor above 10kGy. Key words: Electron beam irradiation,Poly(ether-block-amide), Thermal, mechanical, structural and surface properties, Temperature ramp, Degradation INTRODUCTION Poly (ether-block-amide) (Pebax) is a copolymer which consists of linear chains of rigid polyamide blocks covalently linked to flexible polyether blocks via ester groups (Joseph and Flesher, 1986). The polyamide crystalline region provides the mechanical strength while the polyether amorphous region offers high permeability as a result of the high chain mobility of the ether linkage (Joseph and Flesher, 1986; Liu, 2008).

  • THE EFFECTS of SEVERAL PAPER CHARACTERISTICS and APPLICATION METHODS on the SUBLIMATION RATE of CYCLODODECANE by Kelli A. Piot
    THE EFFECTS OF SEVERAL PAPER CHARACTERISTICS AND APPLICATION METHODS ON THE SUBLIMATION RATE OF CYCLODODECANE by Kelli A. Piotrowski A thesis submitted to the Department of Art In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Art Conservation Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (September, 2013) Copyright © Kelli Piotrowski, 2013 ABSTRACT Cyclododecane (CDD) is a waxy, solid cyclic hydrocarbon (C12H24) that sublimes at room temperature and possesses strong hydrophobicity. In paper conservation CDD is used principally as a temporary fixative of water-soluble media during aqueous treatments. Hydrophobicity, ease of reversibility, low toxicity, and absence of residues are reasons often cited for its use over alternative materials although the latter two claims continue to be debated in the literature. The sublimation rate has important implications for treatment planning as well as health and safety considerations given the dearth of reliable information on its toxicity and exposure limits. This study examined how the rate of sublimation is affected by fiber type, sizing, and surface finish as well as delivery in the molten phase and as a saturated solution in low boiling petroleum ether. The effect of warming the paper prior to application was also evaluated. Sublimation was monitored using gravimetric analysis after which samples were tested for residues with gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FID) to confirm complete sublimation. Water absorbency tests were conducted to determine whether this property is fully reestablished. Results suggested that the sublimation rate of CDD is affected minimally by all of the paper characteristics and application methods examined in this study. The main factors influencing the rate appear to be the thickness and mass of the CDD over a given surface area as well as temperature and ventilation.
