Theory and applications of confocal micro-Raman spectroscopy on hybrid polymer coatings and PDMS membranes and spectroscopic studies of doped B2O3-Bi2O3 glass systems
… an application of this spectroscopic method on PDMS-membranes. The theoretical-experimental study includes the application of a model that describes the influence of the refraction effect on the focus length on confocal Raman experiments, and the development of a new model that additionally …

Development of a device for multi-modal mechanical manipulation of cells in 2D and 3D engineering environment
… cellular morphology. Three different types of PDMS membranes were designed, manufactured and tested by applying a tensile load from the designed device. The three types of PDMS membranes produced were: 20 mm x 20 mm, 20 mm x 20 mm with 1mm thickness dividers (dividers divided the PDMS membrane …

Carbon Dioxide Gas Separation from Syngas to Increase Conversion of Reverse Water Gas Shift Reaction via Polymeric and Mixed Matrix Membranes
Membranes are a promising, effective and energy efficient separation strategy for effluent gases in the Reverse Water Gas Shift (RWGS) reaction to increase the overall conversion of CO2 to CO. This process involves a separation and recycling process to reuse the unreacted CO2 from the RWGS reactor. …

ZSM-5/thermoplastic polyurethane mixed matrix membranes for pervaporation of dilute aqueous organic solvents
… polyurethane (TPU) mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for efficient pervaporation of n-butanol and ethanol from dilute aqueous solutions as a cheap and easy to fabricate replacement for the benchmark polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membranes. Binary systems of n-butanol-water and …

Localizing Strain in a 2D in vitro Stretch System to Model Regional Injury Dynamics
… system uses a flexible polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane indented by a rigid post to deliver a controllable, clinically relevant stretch to 2D cultures. To induce strain heterogeneity, the system was modified to increase friction at the membrane–post interface, reducing strain in the center …
