Mechanistic evaluation of the effect of thermal-treating on Eudragit RS matrices

TL;DR: The results showed that polymer chain movement and redistribution of the polymer in the tablet matrix structure after thermal-treating is the possible mechanism of drug release prolongation.

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) Composites Reinforced with Fly Ash and Mica

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of fly ash and mica on the percentage crystallinity of PEEK composites was studied by using modulated differential scanning calorimeter (MDSC).

Hierarchical modelling of softwood hygro-elastic properties

TL;DR: In this paper, a hierarchical set of structural models for predicting and explaining the mechanics of wood is presented for radiata pine under load or when subjected to environmental changes, which is applicable to other softwoods and, to a lesser extent, hardwoods.

Equivalent Time Temperature Model for Physical Aging and Temperature Effects on Polymer Creep and Relaxation

TL;DR: The equivalent time temperature method (ETT) as mentioned in this paper was developed to deal with time-temperature shifting of long-term polymer and polymer composite creep data, including the effects of physical aging at non-uniform temperature.
