PLA/PLLA scaffold for vascular tissue engineering applications

2011

A critical obstacle encountered by tissue engineering is the inability to maintain large masses of living cells upon transfer from the in vitro culture conditions to host in vivo. Capillaries, and the vascular system, are required to supply essential nutrients, including oxygen, remove waste products and provide a biochemical communication “highway”. Another task in this research field is the possibility to tune the biodegradability of the scaffold. After implantation, the scaffold must be gradually populated by cells and replaced by extra cellular matrix; with this respect, it is crucial that this replacement takes place with appropriate dynamics and a well-defined timescale. A premature d…

Influence of "Controlled Processing Conditions" on the solidification of iPP, PET and PA6

2002

In this work reliable experimental data for three semicrystalline polymers (iPP, PA6, PET) crystallised under pressure and high cooling rates are supplied. These results were achieved on the basis of a model experiment where drastic "controlled" solidification conditions are applied. The final objective was to quantify the effect of two typical operating conditions (pressure and cooling rate) on the final properties and morphology of the obtained product. The influence of processing conditions on some macroscopically relevant properties, such as density and micro hardness is stressed, together with the influence of processing conditions on the product morphology, investigated by means of Wi…

Solidification of Polypropylene Under Processing Conditions – Relevance of Cooling Rate, Pressure and Molecular Parameters

Il concetto di "no-flow temperature" e il problema della solidificazione in flusso durante lo stadio di riempimento nel processo di stampaggio ad ini…

2012

Durante la fase di riempimento del processo di stampaggio ad iniezione, il flusso del materiale polimerico può fermarsi a causa della sua elevata viscosità, nonostante non sia avvenuta la solidificazione tramite transizione vetrosa o cristallizzazione. La no-flow temperature (NFT) è un parametro che rappresenta la "temperatura di solidificazione reologica" di un polimero, ed è utilizzata in molti software di simulazione del processo di stampaggio ad iniezione. L'estrapolazione della viscosità a basse temperature tramite modelli reologici può introdurre errori considerevoli nelle simulazioni, poichè le misure di viscosità sono usualmente effettuate ad alte temperature: in tal modo, i modelli…

CHARACTERIZATION OF HYDROPHOBIC POLYMERIC MEMBRANES FOR MEMBRANE DISTILLATION PROCESS

2010

Hydrophobic microporous membranes are utilized in membrane distillation (MD) processes, e.g. seawater desalination at moderate temperatures. The vapour permeability of commercial hydrophobic membranes with different pore sizes (0.2-1 micron) was characterized through a simple apparatus designed-on-purpose. A cylindrical vessel had a face closed by the membrane and the other connected to a thin graduate tube. The water level variation in the tube is recorded and related to the vapour flux across the membrane. Measurements were taken in the temperature range 20-80°C. A fan tangential to membrane surface was employed to maintain a constant driving force for vapour transport. Vapour flux did no…
