Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Wood is stronger than steel 08.02.2018

A technology that allows wood to be made into a material that is stronger than steel was presented by specialists from the University of Maryland. A bulletproof coating of such wood would be quite effective, while having a low cost.

At the initial stage, the creation of superstrong wood resembles the production of cellulose - the tree is boiled in a solution of sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfite. The wood can then be effectively compressed, and if the right pressure is applied and the temperature is gradually increased, the compression will result in the formation of a huge array of hydrogen bonds between adjacent cellulose chains. Each of these ties is weak in itself, but breaking them all at the same time, as noted, is very difficult. As a result, wood becomes ten times more rigid and almost invulnerable to moisture.

Experts note that in containers with high humidity, the thickness of the compressed wood increased by only 10 percent, and covering it with a layer of paint made it possible to completely eliminate this effect.

As a material for bulletproof protective ammunition, compressed wood is somewhat inferior to Kevlar in quality, but it is 20 times more economical.
