Dear Network, I am pleased to share with you a link to one of our latest published papers (https://lnkd.in/edDsTEVM). In this paper, we present a study that describes and explains the release of active compounds as inclusion complexes from biopolymers for various applications. The study is based on a model that incorporates thermodynamic and transport phenomena. Additionally, it considers the preparation of these compounds through solvent-free techniques using supercritical CO2. This work, which is supported by a wealth of experimental and theoretical evidence, represents a joint effort between the Universidad de Santiago de Chile (Alejandra Torres Mediano, Francisco Rodríguez Mercado, Esteban Quijada Maldonado) and the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (Marina Patricia Arrieta). It is our intention to extend this collaboration in the longer term to encompass the development of new materials through sustainable processes, additive manufacturing and the circular economy.

Our recent research work, "Covalently Merging Ionic Liquids and Conjugated Polymers: A Molecular Design Strategy for Green Solvent-Processable Mixed Ion–Electron Conductors Toward High-Performing Chemical Sensors," has been published as a cover article in Advanced Functional Materials. This work presents polymeric mixed ionic–electronic conductors, consisting of charged monomers with ionic liquid-like pendant groups, which not only exhibit solubility in environmentally friendly solvents but also demonstrate long-term stability against humidity, high temperatures, and mechanical deformation. The immobilized ion species foster highly selective interactions of these polymers with nitrogen dioxide, paving the way for the development of stretchable sensing devices capable of functioning at exceptionally high temperatures.

Ph.D Scholar, Production Engineering at National Institute of Technology-Tiruchirappalli
I am thrilled to share that my latest research paper, titled "Investigating Tribological Performance in 3D-Printed PETG/Graphene Composites of Varying Composition", has been published in the Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites. In this study, we explore the impact of varying graphene content in PETG composites on their tribological performance. The integration of graphene in 3D-printed materials holds significant promise for enhancing the wear resistance and frictional properties of composites, which can lead to improved performance in a variety of applications. Key highlights from the research: 1. Detailed analysis of how different graphene concentrations affect the sliding wear and coefficient of friction. A big thank you to my guide and co-author Dr. Vasu Mallesha, and the editorial team at the journal for their invaluable contributions and support throughout this research journey. This paper can be accessed through this link: [https://lnkd.in/d5-QBBYw]. I welcome any thoughts or discussions about the findings. Let’s continue to push the boundaries of what's possible with 3D-printed materials!

AMADE has nearly two decades of experience in the study, characterisation and analysis of the mechanical behaviour of advanced materials and structures.
Doctoral thesis on high-volume manufacturing of advanced composite parts. On May 27, 2024, Jose A. González Ruiz defended his PhD thesis entitled “High-volume manufacturing of advanced composite parts: reducing waste and curing time while maintaining high performance” supervised by Dr. Norbert Blanco (AMADE - Universitat de Girona) and Dr. Jordi Farjas Silva (Grup de Recerca en Materials I Termodinàmica – Universitat de Girona). This PhD research investigates the improvement of the manufacturing of composite materials towards high-volume productions through the reduction of material wastage and the reduction of the curing time by using isoconversional thermal models. This PhD contributes to an improved efficiency of the manufacturing process for composite materials in industrial sectors towards enhancing high-volume productions. It also contributes to the accurate modelling of the curing resin of thermoset resins facilitating the optimization of the curing cycles and allowing for reduced manufacturing times while maintaining the mechanical performance of the parts. Jose Antonio González would like to acknowledge the support of the industrial doctorate program of the Catalan Government, under the Grant 2018DI053.

📣 New paper publication in open access! One of our latest research is now published in Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing! 📚 Title: “On how pseudo-ductility modifies the translaminar fracture toughness of composites and the nominal strength of centre-cracked specimens”. 🤝 Research team: Anbazhagan Subramani, Pere Maimí, Josep Costa Balanzat 💡 Key Highlights: 🔸 Linear Dependency of Toughness on Pseudo-ductile Strain Our observations show a clear linear relationship between translaminar toughness and pseudo-ductile strain. 🔸 Significant Parameters Identified through Dimensional Analysis Analysis reveals that both pseudo-ductile strain and the ultimate-to-yield strength ratio are fundamental to toughness. 🔸 Plateauing Effect of Ultimate-to-Yield Strength Ratio While this ratio influences toughness, its impact diminishes beyond a specific threshold, indicating a plateau effect. 🔸 Pseudo-Ductility Enhances Nominal Strength Based on specimen Size Notably, pseudo-ductile characteristics enhance the nominal strength of center-crack specimens, but only above a critical size.
