Currently the sports footwear market is very competitive, in which it is sought to produce products that provide high performance, using technology in the production processes as well as in the materials used. One of the main materials used in the composition of soles and midsole of these products is EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate), which brings several benefits such as cost reduction, comfort, lightness and softness. The injection molding process is the most efficient for obtaining EVA soles, however, EVA undergoes large expansions that may vary according to its formulation and geometry of the desired model. The objective of this work is to analyze the non-uniform deformation of EVA, used in the injection molding processes, as well as one method used to correct such distortions that occur in the expansion of this material. For this, a bibliographic review was carried out to analyze the chemical composition of the EVA, whose composition will determine the characteristics of expansion and softness. The work also addresses the steps of the injection process by analyzing the temperatures and pressure employed and an analysis of how to predict and correct the distortion in EVA expansion. It is proposed to use a section of a 3D model, where it is determined where compensations should be applied and using 3D modeling software.

Polymeric Materials for the Development of Dual↓Working Gastroretentive Drug Delivery Systems. A Breakthrough Approach

Image
   JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-   ACADEMIC JOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE Abstract Oral route is the most convenient and widely used method of drug administration, representing about 90% of all therapies used. It displays great advantages, such as being non-invasive, easy to administer (with the consequent high patient compliance) and cost-effective. However, serious drawbacks to conventional oral dosage forms are imposed by the gastrointestinal tract. Large fluctuations in drug bioavailability are found due to the influence of physiological factors such as variations in pH, high enzymatic activity and gastric emptying. This is the reason why frequent drug administrations are required to maintain the therapeutic plasma level of the drug. Gastroretentive Drug Delivery Systems (GRDDS) have emerged as an ideal approach to overcome these drawbacks. They are designed to prolong the gastric residence time (GRT) of the dosage forms in the stomach so that the time between dose administration ...

Prospects for the Use of Carbon Nanotubes in Medicine-Juniper Publishers

Authored by J Igielska-Kalwat       Abstract Newly discovered compounds showing unique properties can have profound effect on development of medicine. As far as carbon is concerned, a discovery of great consequences for medicine was that of a new allotropic form of carbon known as fullerene. Recently much interest has been paid to the application of carbon nanotubes as carriers of therapeutic drugs, biosensors, in gene therapy or in anticancer therapy. Keywords: Nanotubes; Nanotechnology; Medicine Abbrevations: SWCNT: Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes; MWCNT: Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes; CVD: Chemical Vapour Deposition; CNT: Carbon Nanotubes; NIR: Near-Infrared Radiation; f-CNT: Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes; CNPs: Carbon Nanotubes Polymers Composites Introduction Nanotechnology has become one of the most intensely developing area of research and it combines the achievements from many branches of science.
