Cellular materials have large use in many components acting as impact energy absorbers.
These components have to be designed on the basis of the kind of impact, of the involved …

This work deals with the analysis of the mechanical behaviour of a class of sandwich
structures widely employed in marine constructions, constituted by fiber-glass laminate skins …

Polyurethane foam, used as a supporting or insulating material, is sometimes formed in
complex molds with significant variations in geometry and size. This work investigates the …

Polymeric foams having microcellular structures were successfully prepared from some high-
performance thermoplastics, specifically polyethersulfone and polyphenylsulfone. A two …

Rigid polyurethane foams (RPUFs) were synthesized using exclusively lignin-based polyol
(LBP) obtained via the oxyalkylation of kraft lignin with propylene carbonate (PC). Using the …

This study constructs a flexible gradient foaming structure by changes the maleic anhydride-
grafted styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene (SEBS-g-MAH) content on the basis of a two-step …

Inorganic alkali lead iodide semiconducting APbI3 (A = Li, Na, K, Cs) and NH4PbI3 films
prepared from solution: Structure, morph Page 1 AIMS Materials Science, 3(3): 737-755. DOI …

Until recently, the density was seen as the only factor affecting the product properties of the
expanded polystyrene foam insulation boards. However, today it is reported that product …

Most running shoe midsoles are made of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) foam although
excellent mechanical long-term properties of polyurethane (PU) foam are generally known …

In this work, a simple way to create a nanocellular structure within polyurethane (PU) foam
was developed by the incorporation of silica aerogels, and the resultant foams were …
