The proposed methodical approach is applied for plate capacitor type of the cell and for the one in coaxial lien for the measurements in the frequency region 0,1 Hz-10 MHz and 1 MHz-1GHz respectively, using Novocontorl GmbH equipment. The possibilities to investigate an evolution of the biological system in time and temperature scale avoiding the influence of electrode polarization are demonstrated.

An analytical one-dimensional model has demonstrated that the electrical impedance of such an inserted element depends in particular on the acoustical parameters of the surrounding media. Then, by solving the inverse problem by means of a nonlinear optimization algorithm, it is possible to determine these acoustical parameters characteristic of the materials in contact with the inserted piezoelectric plate. This technique has been applied to the monitoring of the cure of gel-forming and glass-forming polymers such as polyurethanes and epoxies and compared to classical ultrasonic spectroscopy method. Thus it is possible to detect chemical evolution, transitions, and damage phenomena in such systems, provided that the material is homogeneous in the ultrasonic field or in the area surrounding the piezoelectric elemen...

Associated with other methods (rheology, DLS, etc.), it allows the investigation of molecular dynamics associated with sol–gel and glass transitions in polymers on a wide frequency range. Polypropylene glycol triol crosslinked with diisocyanate is a good model system for this purpose in polymer networks. By varying the amount of diisocyanate, stable systems are formed which correspond to different stages of polyurethane gel formation. Three triols with different molar masses (260, 700, and 6000 g/mole) are used as precursors in order to apprehend the influence of the macromolecular chain size on the systems dynamics. The temperature dependence of the ultrasonic absorption and velocity shows a relaxation process, the so-called alpha-relaxation associated with the glass transition. The influence of the stoichiometric ratio r=[NCO]/[OH] on this...

Strong electrostatic interaction between steel substrate and the PU results in changing the dielectric relaxation properties of the latter, comparatively with gold substrate. The influence of metal/polymer electric double layer becomes significant at thickness less than 60 μm for the steel substrate. For the gold electrodes, the relaxation characteristics of the PU hardly depend on thickness.

Their microstructure, as followed by Scanning Electron Microscopy, has been analyzed to understand the aggregation process of the ceramic particles. For low LiSn2P3O12

Then a conductive silver ink was prepared with a suitable solvent by adding a viscosifier, hydroxyethyl-cellulose (HEC), and a surfactant, diethylene glycol (DEG). The combined effect of both viscosifier and surfactant on the physical property of the silver ink was analyzed by measuring the contact angle of the silver ink on a cellulose film. Moreover, the influences of PVP molecular weight and reaction temperature on the size of the silver nanoparticles were analyzed. Then the silver ink was coated on the cellulose film by spin coating and the effects of different solvents, sintering temperatures and solid contents on its electrical resistivity were examined. It was found that, with 50 % co-solvent of deionized water and DEG and solid content of around 50 %, the silver ink exhibited the lowest resistivity. This ink can be used for inkjet printing of conductive patterns on cellulose films.

The fibers orientation and length, their volume fraction and the fiber matrix adhesion can influence the electrical conductivity of the fiber composites [1]. Three-dimensional simulations have been conducted to predict percolation threshold in fiber composite materials. A method is proposed to evaluate electrical resistance of fibrous composites. Assuming meandering paths, calculation is based on detecting conductive pathways through the insulating matrix. Percolation is detected by the height of the conducting cluster instead of its number at the two electrodes. The electrical resistivity and the conduction thresholds of the carbon fiber reinforced polycarbonate composites have been characterized. Decreasing the percolation threshold with longer fiber has been verified. Lower conduction thresholds are o...
