The microcapsule was prepared via emulsion polymerization. The size of the microcapsules could be easily controlled from 1to3mm by varying the polymerization time in a narrow size distribution. The microcapsules were then mixed with a UV-curable transparent liquid resin and cured by a subsequent light irradiation. The current approach could enhance the thermal barrier property of the films without a significant reduction in the optical transparency. The solid film possessing 30 wt% microcapsules, for Received 26th January 2018 example, exhibited a high visible light transmittance (80% as measured by UV-vis spectroscopy) and the Accepted 27th February 2018 thermal conductivity was reduced to 0.06 W mKÀ1, corresponding to 46% of the capsule free film.

  • Glass Microspheres for Hydrogen Storage
    Glass Microspheres for Hydrogen Storage James Shelby and Matthew Hall Alfred University Wed, May 25 Project ID # This presentation does not contain any proprietary or confidential information STP47 HOLLOW GLASS MICROSPHERES The concept of using hollow glass microspheres (HGM) as a hydrogen storage medium has been known for some time. Hydrogen diffuses through the thin wall of the HGM at elevated temperatures and pressures. The gas is then trapped upon cooling to room temperature. The ability of HGM to safely store compressed hydrogen gas is a major HYDROGEN-FILLED HOLLOW advantage. However, a traditional GLASS MICROSPHERE limitation of HGM has been the poor thermal conductivity of a packed bed of HGM; poor conduction of heat translates to unsuitably low release rates of hydrogen gas. 2 HOLLOW GLASS MICROSPHERES Previous work by Rapp and Shelby demonstrated that the release rate of hydrogen from a monolithic glass plate could be greatly accelerated by the radiation emitted from an infrared lamp. In order to effect this “photo-enhanced” outgassing, the glass was doped with an optically active element; in this case, 0.5 wt% Fe3O4 was used 3 OVERVIEW Timeline Barriers • Estimated start date: • Barriers addressed: May 2005 – Cost: HGM are currently made in tonnage quantities from low- cost raw materials Budget – Weight and volume: HGM are an ideal storage medium from • Total project funding the standpoint of weight – Durability: Provided that the for FY 05 glass membrane is not broken, HGM may be indefinitely used – AU: $50k for hydrogen storage

  • Crystallization Kinetics of Chalcogenide Glasses
    2 Crystallization Kinetics of Chalcogenide Glasses Abhay Kumar Singh Department of Physics, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India 1. Introduction 1.1 Background of chalcogenides Chalcogenide glasses are disordered non crystalline materials which have pronounced tendency their atoms to link together to form link chain. Chalcogenide glasses can be obtained by mixing the chalcogen elements, viz, S, Se and Te with elements of the periodic table such as Ga, In, Si, Ge, Sn, As, Sb and Bi, Ag, Cd, Zn etc. In these glasses, short-range inter-atomic forces are predominantly covalent: strong in magnitude and highly directional, whereas weak van der Waals' forces contribute significantly to the medium-range order. The atomic bonding structure is, in general more rigid than that of organic polymers and more flexible than that of oxide glasses. Accordingly, the glass-transition temperatures and elastic properties lay in between those of these materials. Some metallic element containing chalcogenide glasses behave as (super) ionic conductors. These glasses also behave as semiconductors or, more strictly, they are a kind of amorphous semi-conductors with band gap energies of 1±3eV (Fritzsche, 1971). Commonly, chalcogenide glasses have much lower mechanical strength and thermal stability as compared to existing oxide glasses, but they have higher thermal expansion, refractive index, larger range of infrared transparency and higher order of optical non-linearity. It is difficult to define with accuracy when mankind first fabricated its own glass but sources demonstrate that it discovered 10,000 years back in time. It is also difficult to point in time, when the field of chalcogenide glasses started.

Abstract: Nanostructured surfaces and devices offer astounding possibilities for biomedical re- search, including cellular and molecular biology, diagnostics, and therapeutics. However, the wide implementation of these systems is currently limited by the lack of cost-effective and easy-to-use nanopatterning tools. A promising solution is to use optical methods based on photonic nanojets, namely, needle-like beams featuring a nanometric width. In this review, we survey the physics, engi- neering strategies, and recent implementations of photonic nanojets for high-throughput generation of arbitrary nanopatterns, along with applications in optics, electronics, mechanics, and biosensing. An outlook of the potential impact of nanopatterning technologies based on photonic nanojets in several relevant biomedical areas is also provided.

  • Fracture Analysis of Glass Microsphere Filled Epoxy Resin Syntactic Foam
    SCHOOL OF AEROSPACE, CIVIL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING UNIVERSITY COLLEGE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES AUSTRALIAN DEFENCE FORCE ACADEMY FRACTURE ANALYSIS OF GLASS MICROSPHERE FILLED EPOXY RESIN SYNTACTIC FOAM MAJOR PETER YOUNG A thesis submitted for the degree of Masters of Engineering AMEC – 2691 AUGUST 2007 Thesis Supervisor: Dr Krishna Shankar Co - Supervisor: Dr Andrew Neely i ABSTRACT Hollow glass microspheres have been used extensively in the automotive and marine industries as an additive for reducing weight and saving material costs. They are also added to paints and other materials for their reflective properties. They have shown promise for weight critical applications, but have thus far resulted in materials with low fracture toughness and impact resistance when combined with thermosetting resins in syntactic foam. The advent of commercially available microspheres with a wide range of crushing strengths, densities and adhesive properties has given new impetus to research into syntactic foam with better fracture behaviour. Current research suggests that the beneficial effects on fracture and impact resistance gained by the addition of solid reinforcements such as rubber and ceramic particles are not seen with the addition of hollow glass microspheres. The research presented in this paper has examined the mechanisms for fracture resistance in glass microsphere filled epoxy (GMFE) syntactic foams, as well as determined the effect microsphere crushing strength and adhesion strength has on the material’s fracture toughness. The flexural properties of various GMFE have also been determined. GMFE were manufactured with varying microsphere volume fraction up to 50%, and with variances in microsphere crushing strength and adhesion. The specimens were tested for Mode I fracture toughness in a three point single edge notched bending setup as described in ASTM D5045 as well as a three point flexural setup as described in ASTM D790-3.
