Synthesis of Functionalized Poly(dimethylsiloxane)s and the Preparation of Magnetite Nanoparticle Complexes and DispersionsO'Brien, Kristen Wilson 08 September 2003 (has links)
Poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) fluids containing magnetite nanoparticles stabilized with carboxylic acid-functionalized PDMS were prepared. PDMS-magnetite complexes were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, elemental analysis, and vibrating sample magnetometry. PDMS-magnetite complexes containing up to 67 wt% magnetite with magnetizations of ~52 emu gram-1 were prepared. The magnetite particles were 7.4 ± 1.7 nm in diameter. Calculations suggested that the complexes prepared using mercaptosuccinic acid-functionalized PDMS (PDMS-6COOH) complexes contained unbound acid groups whereas the mercaptoacetic acid-functionalized PDMS (PDMS-3COOH) complexes did not. Calculations showed that the PDMS-3COOH and PDMS-6COOH covered the same surface area on magnetite. Calculations were supported by molecular models and FTIR analyses. The complexes were dispersed into PDMS carrier fluids by ultrasonication, resulting in magnetic PDMS fluids with potential biomedical applications.
Magnetite particles (100 nm to 1 mm in diameter) were prepared by crystallization from goethite/glycol/water solutions under pressure. Two methods for particle growth were investigated in which the crystallization medium was varied by adjusting the amount of water or by adding itaconic acid. Particle surfaces were analyzed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Particles with clean surfaces were coated with carboxylic acid-functionalized poly(e-caprolactone) stabilizers. Adding itaconic acid to the reactions afforded particles ~100 nm in diameter. The magnetite particles displayed magnetic hysteresis. The particles were dispersed into vinyl ester resins by ultrasonication and it was demonstrated that the ~100 nm particles remained dispersed for three days without agitation. These dispersions have applications in magnetic induction heating for composite repair.
Living polymerizations of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane were terminated with dimethylchlorosilane, phenylmethylchlorosilane, or diisopropylchlorosilane (DIPCS). Platinum-catalyzed hydrosilation of the hydrosilane-terminated PDMS with allyloxyethanol afforded a systematic series of hydroxyalkyl-terminated PDMS. The reactions were successful except for the hydrosilation of the sterically-hindered DIPCS-functionalized PDMS where no reaction was observed. Hydroxyalkyl-terminated PDMS oligomers were successful in initiating the stannous octoate-catalyzed copolymerization of e-caprolactone, which afforded PDMS-b-PCL diblock copolymers of controlled composition. / Ph.

A magneto-rheological actuator for assistive knee braces. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2009 (has links)
It has been found that magneto-rheological (MR) devices can produce large controllable force/torque while consuming little power. In this research, an MR actuator that can function as a clutch or a brake is developed, in order to be applied to an assistive knee brace. The torque capability and dynamic characteristics of the MR actuator are evaluated. The relationship between the torque output and the applied coil current is given. The response time is also measured. Experimental results show that the MR actuator can provide enough torque for normal activities with sufficiently fast response. IP control and adaptive control are proposed to control the MR actuator. Experiments under these controls are carried out. With anti-windup strategies, both controls achieve good performances. However, adaptive control would be more promising since it can adapt to parameter variations and maintain good performance. An assistive knee brace that contains this MR actuator and a DC motor is developed. In order to study the performances of the knee brace before applied to human body, experiments are conducted for evaluation under a custom-built testing structure. IP-based state control and adaptive control are used to control both the MR actuator and DC motor. Experimental results demonstrate that the MR actuator and DC motor work well together to provide assistance as expected. Compared with that without MR actuator, the evaluation results show that the knee brace with MR actuator is more energy efficient during normal walking, while having better force controllability and safety. / by Chen, Jinzhou. / Adviser: Liao Wei Hsin. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-01, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2009. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 140-151). / Electronic reproduction.

Design and analysis of multifunctional actuators for assistive knee braces. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2010 (has links)
In this research, a novel magnetorheological (MR) fluids based multifunctional actuator for assistive knee braces is designed. To decrease the dimension of the actuation device while enhancing its perfonnances, a motor and MR fluids are integrated into a single device. With MR fluids, the actuator possesses multiple functions as motor, clutch, and brake while meeting the requirement of nonnal human motion as well. In this thesis, design details and operating principle of the actuator are illustrated, and possible configurations of the motor part and clutch/brake part are discussed. Finite element method is utilized to analyze the magnetic circuits, influence of pennanent magnet on MR fluids, and magnetic flux distribution. Different clutch/brake parts with various inner coils are compared and analyzed, followed by a design optimization to improve the output torque. Prototypes of the multifunctional actuator are fabricated and tested, and characteristics of each function are investigated. As the actuator has multiple functions, modeling is developed for different functions, and system identification is carried out to determine the parameters. Adaptive control is utilized to control the actuator for torque and speed tracking. A smart joint using such a multifunctional actuator is designed, and its prototype is fabricated and tested. Power consumptions of knee brace using the smart joint are investigated during normal walking cycle. The results show that the developed actuator and smart joint are promising to be used in assistive knee braces. / Guo, Hongtao. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-03, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2010. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 154-158). / Electronic reproduction.
