AbstractThis paper develops a novel paper additive for effectively recycling old corrugated container (OCC) by functionalizing nanocellulose (NC) with diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) and chitosan (CS), and investigate the reinforcing mechanisms and effect of the developed additive on the physical properties of recycled OCC pulp handsheets. The tensile, tear and burst index, air permeability, tensile energy absorption (TEA), and drainage performance of the recycled OCC handsheets are examined. Fourier transform infrared FTIR) spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) are used for the chemical and microstructure characterization of both NC based additives and paper from recycled OCC pulp. The results show that functional groups on the NC based additive, such as carboxyl, amino and hydroxyl groups, can bond with the hydroxyl groups on the recycled OCC fibres to generate a chemical bond. This leads to an increase in the crosslinks and bonding area between the fibres, which increases their tensile strength and improves their recycling rate. SEM shows that the paper with NC based additives had tighter inter-fibre bonds and smaller paper pore structure. Addition of 0.3% NC-DTPA-CS additive results in optimal properties of the recycled OCC paper with an increase by 31.64%, 22.28% and 36.6% of tensile index, tear index, burst index respectively, and the air permeability decreases by 36.92%.

AbstractA continuous wave (CW) and a nanosecond pulsed wave (PW) lasers were used to join 1-mm thick sheets of SS304L (SS) austenitic stainless-steel to AA5251 (Al) aluminium alloy in an overlap joint configuration. The weld shape (penetration depth and width), intermetallic compounds concentration, weld quality (cracking and porosity) and mechanical strength were correlated with the process energy and compared between each laser temporal mode. Successful CW joints were produced with the SS sheet on top of the Al, but the opposite configuration revealed to be impossible for the range of parameters tested. The PW joints were successful with the Al sheet on top of SS, but all the joints cracked at the interface when the opposite configuration was used. The mechanical tests showed that even though it is possible to achieve higher tensile shear load in CW welds due to the larger bonding area, the tensile shear strength revealed to be almost 5 × higher for PW welds at similar applied energy.

Abstract Hybrid bonding has been explored for more than a decade and implemented recently in high volume production at wafer-to-wafer level for image sensor applications to enable high performance chip-stacking architectures with ultra-high-density chip-to-chip interconnect. The feasibility of sub-micron hybrid bond pitch leading to ultra-high-density chip-to-chip interconnect has been demonstrated due to the elimination of solder bridging issues from microbump method. Hybrid bonding has also been actively considered for logic and memory chip-stacking, chiplets, and heterogeneous integration in general but encountering additional challenges for bonding at die-to-wafer or die-to-die level. Overlay precision, throughput, wafer dicing are among the main causes. Widening the process margin against overlay error by designing innovative hybrid bonding pad structure is highly desirable. This work proposes a method to evaluate these hybrid bonding pad structure designs and to assess the potential performance metrics by analyzing interfacial characteristics at design phase. The bonding areas and ratios of copper-copper, copper-dielectric, and dielectric-dielectric are the proposed key parameters. The correlation between bonding area ratios and overlay errors can provide insights on the sensitivity to process margins. Nonetheless, the impact of copper recess or protrusion associated with bonding area ratios are also highlighted. The proposed method is demonstrated by examining and analyzing the hybrid bonding pad structure design concepts from a few cases reported in literatures as examples. Concerns are identified for elaboration in future designs and optimizations.

Abstract This paper is to develop a novel paper additive for effectively recycling old corrugated container (OCC) by functionalizing nanocellulose (NC) with diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) and chitosan (CS), and investigate the reinforcing mechanisms and effect of the developed additive on the physical properties of recycled OCC pulp handsheets.

Fourier transform infrared FTIR) spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) are used for the chemical and microstructure characterization of both NC based additives and recycled OCC pulp paper. The results show that the functional groups, such as carboxyl, amino and hydroxyl groups on the NC based additives, can combine with the hydroxyl groups on the recycled OCC fibres to generate chemical bonds, which increase the crosslinks between fibres as well as the bonding area, thus enhancing their tensile strength and improving their recycling rate. SEM shows that the paper with NC based additives had tighter inter-fibre bonds and smaller paper pore structure. Addition of 0.2% NC-DTPA-CS additive results in optimal properties of the recycled OCC paper with an increase by 32%, 188%, 19% and 35% of tensile strength, tearing degree, breaking resistance and air permeability respectively.

Adhesively bonded carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP)/Al joints have been widely used in engineering field. However, the bonding strength still needs to be improved. In this study, ultrasonic vibration was applied during the adhesive bonding to promote the micromechanical anchoring at the interface of CFRP/Al joints. Ultrasonic vibration was exerted on the CFRP laminate to transmit the vibration to the adhesive bonding area once the joint was assembled. The strength and the strength consistency of the joints were increased by 45% and 50%, respectively. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) results showed that the ultrasonic vibration promoted the filling of the adhesive into the microstructures of the adherends and achieved a more compact bonding. Viscosity and contact angle of the adhesive were measured, and both of them were decreased greatly under the ultrasonic vibration, indicating that the ultrasonic vibration can increase the fluidity of the adhesive and force the wetting between the materials. Ultrasonic capillary experiment was then conducted. The adhesive in the capillary tube was prompted to rise obviously, and the meniscus was inverted with ultrasonic vibration, showing that the ultrasonic vibration produced a driving effect on filling of the adhesive in the microstructures. Therefore, the joints exhibited improved bonding strength owing to the enhanced micromechanical anchoring and physical adsorption at the bonding interface. This study is of great significance for understanding and optimization of the ultrasonic vibration strengthened adhesive bonding.

In this paper, a shear stiffness model for corrugated-core sandwich structures is proposed. The bonding area is discussed independently. The core is thought to be hinged on the skins with torsional stiffness. The analytical model was verified by FEM solution. Compared with the previous studies, the new model can predict the valley point of the shear stiffness at which the relationship between the shear stiffness and the angle of the core changes from negative correlation to positive correlation. The valley point increases when the core becomes stronger. For the structure with a angle of the core smaller than counterpart for the valley point, the existing analytical formulations may significantly underestimate the shear stiffness of the structure with strong skins. The results obtained by some previous models may be only 10 persent of that of the present model, which is supported by the FEM model.

Polymer-coated steel (PCS) is a new type of metal packaging material under development, which has better performance in saving resources, energy, and environmental protection. The lamination process has an important influence on the bonding quality of the PCS interface. PCS samples under different lamination temperatures and lamination speeds were prepared through experiments. A binding rate is defined to represent the real bonding area of the PCS interface. The micro-scratch tester and scanner are used to study the influence of the lamination process on the bonding rate and bonding strength of the PCS interface. It is proposed that the bonding rate and bonding strength of the PCS interface increases with the increase of lamination temperature and increases with the decrease of lamination speed. The PCS interface bonding rate and bonding strength are positively correlated. SEM and DSC experiments revealed the cause of bubbles on the PCS surface. It is proposed that controlling the uniformity of the TFS surface temperature can reduce the quality defects of PCS surface bubbles. Relevant research results bring guiding significance for the formation of enterprises.

This study prepared compression-molded products from ball-milled wood by thermally plasticizing lignin without adhesives or resins. Wet ball milling for 120 min produced smooth, creamy slurries. The resultant products were hot-pressed at 180 °C and exhibited a plastic-like glossy surface and a high Young’s modulus (7.9 GPa), which was attributed to an increased bonding area. However, hydrogen bond formation occurs more predominantly during wood molding than thermoplasticization of lignin, because a hydrophilic surface was formed on wood fragments after wet ball milling in water. In contrast, when wood powder was ball-milled in toluene, drying aggregation due to hydrogen bond formation hardly occurred probably because the hydrophobic regions were preferentially cleaved. In this case, the hot-pressed product at 180 °C was formed mostly through the bonding owing to the thermoplasticization of lignin. These results suggest that the choice of the solvent for the mechanical disintegration of wood allows for control of the wood fragment surface and can affect the properties of the molded products.
