PCS (particle composite system) is a kind of dry coating equipment. The PCS process involves encapsulating UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular polyethylene) particles with a layer of SCB (super conductive carbon black) or ACB (acetylene black), and subsequently compacting these CB-encapsulated UHMWPE powders by compression molding to manufacture conductive polymer composites respectively. Morphologies of these composite particles were investigated by SEM. By SEM, we can see the conductive networks of CB in polymer composites. Coating-molding process with PCS can be used to form network structure in ceramics and metal as well.

Composite particles with ultra-high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) matrix core and acetylene black (ACB) shell were produced by particle composite system (PCS), and molded into conductive polymer composites. Morphology of these composite particles was investigated by SEM. Matrix particles were coated by ACB nanoparticles very well. Conductive networks of ACB in polymer composites were seen by SEM. The results of electrical behavior study show that the polymer composites exhibit low percolation threshold and its electric conductivity is less affected by temperature due to unusual ACB distribution. Related mechanism is discussed.

Composite particles with ultra-high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) core and carbon nanotube (CNT) shell were produced by an impact coating process, and molded into conductive polymer composites. Morphology of these composite particles was observed and the electrical behavior of these molded composites was measured. UHMWPE particles were very well coated by CNT, and conductive networks of CNT were formed after molding. These conductive polymer composites with low loadings of conductive filler exhibit lower room-temperature resistivity, and volume resistivity decreases with temperature on the whole. This is because of the CNT distribution is uniform in a macroscopic view but is oriented in a mesoscopic view. Thermionic emission of CNT is strong in polymer composites produced by this process. A related mechanism is discussed.

AbstractFor future medical microrobotics, we have proposed the concept of the electroosmotic self-propulsive microswimmer powered by biofuel cell. According to the derived theoretical model, its self-propulsion velocity is inversely proportional to the length of the microswimmer, while it is proportional to the open circuit potential generated by the biofuel cell which does not depend on its size. Therefore, under conditions where those mechanisms work, it can be expected that the smaller its microswimmer size, the faster its self-propulsion velocity. Because of its remarkable feature, this concept is considered to be suitable as propulsion mechanisms for future medical microrobots to move inside the human body through the vascular system, including capillaries. We have already proved the mechanisms by observing the several 10 μm/s velocity of 100 μm prototypes fabricated by the optical photolithography using several photomasks and alignment steps. However, the standard photolithography was not suitable for further miniaturization of prototypes due to its insufficient resolution. In this research, we adopted femtosecond-laser 3D microlithography for multi-materials composing of the conductive polymer composites and nonconductive polymer composite and succeeded in fabricating 10 μm prototypes. Then we demonstrated more than 100 μm/s velocity of the prototype experimentally and proved its validity of the smaller and faster feature.

Nano silver-decorated reduced graphene oxide (Ag–RGO) sheets were synthesized by simply dissolving graphite oxide and silver nitrate inN,N-dimethylformamide and keeping the suspension at 90 °C for 12 h.
