Impact damping and vibration attenuation in nematic liquid crystal elastomers

Mohand O. Saed et al.

Summary: Nematic liquid crystal elastomers (LCE) exhibit unique mechanical properties such as 'soft elasticity', leading to a wide plateau of low stress upon stretching, slow stress relaxation, and enhanced surface adhesion. The extremely large loss behavior and nearly-constant stress make LCE interesting for damping applications, especially in vibration isolation and impact damping. By optimizing impact and vibration geometries, researchers found good correlation between impact energy dissipation in shaped samples and elastic wave transmission, demonstrating the exceptional damping material properties of nematic LCE.

Gecko's Feet-Inspired Self-Peeling Switchable Dry/Wet Adhesive

Yunlei Zhang et al.

Summary: The study developed a novel multilayered self-peeling switchable dry/wet adhesive with thermal-responsive curving behavior and switchable adhesion properties, and explained the dynamic curvature-induced switchable peeling mechanism theoretically. By integrating nanoparticles, remote control over switchable adhesion can be achieved. This research provides a new route for developing intelligent adhesion systems and mobile devices/robots.

Weaker bonding can give larger thermal conductance at highly mismatched interfaces

Bin Xu et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates a counterintuitive phenomenon where a weak van der Waals interface may exhibit higher thermal boundary conductance than a strong covalently bonded interface in a system with highly mismatched vibrational frequencies. The results suggest a trade-off relationship between bridging and binding effects, with bridging potentially overwhelming binding effects at highly mismatched interfaces. This comprehensive understanding of phonon transport at interfaces allows for tailored thermal transport in various material systems.

Liquid Metal Composites with Enhanced Thermal Conductivity and Stability Using Molecular Thermal Linker

Han Wang et al.

Summary: The study introduces a novel method to enhance the thermal conductivity and stability of gallium-based liquid metal composites by introducing 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane at the copper-gallium oxide interfaces. By mixing LM with copper particles modified by CPTES, the composite achieves a high thermal conductivity. The approach also demonstrates the flexibility of tuning the thermal conductivity by altering the terminal groups of silane molecules.

Novel micro-nano epoxy composites for electronic packaging application: Balance of thermal conductivity and processability

Yang Hu et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that the addition of a small amount of silver nanowires (AgNWs) to EP/S-Al2O3 composites can significantly enhance thermal conductivity without sacrificing processability. The micro-nano EP/AgNWs/S-Al2O3 composites exhibit high thermal conductivity, low viscosity, low coefficient of thermal expansion, and high glass transition temperature.
