Multi-sample micro-slit rheometry

September 17, 2008
Author(s)
Doyoung Moon, Anthony J. Bur, Kalman D. Migler
We have developed a multi-sample micro-slit rheometer MMR which is capable of measurements over a broad range of temperatures, viscosities and shear rates. The instrument is mechanically simple as the flow is generated by external gas pressure and the

EVALUATION OF MULTI-SAMPLE MICRO-CAPILLARY RHEOMETER

Doyoung Moon, Anthony J. Bur, Kalman D. Migler
We present a Multi-sample Micro-capillary Rheometer (MMR) which is capable of measurements over a broad range of temperatures, viscosities and shear rates. The instrument is simple as the flow is generated by external gas pressure and the shear rate is

Measurement Issues in Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes

March 15, 2008
Author(s)
S Arepalli, Stephen W. Freiman, Stephanie A. Hooker, Kalman D. Migler
Recommended Practice Guide for Single Wall Carbon Nanotube Characterization consisting of five chapters: Introduction; Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) ; Near-IR Spectroscopy (NIR), Raman Spectroscopy, Optical, Electron, and Scanned Probe Microscopy.

Measurement of Single Wall Nanotube Dispersion by Size Exclusion Chromatography

May 9, 2007
Author(s)
Barry J. Bauer, Matthew Becker, Vardhan Bajpai, Jeffrey A. Fagan, Erik K. Hobbie, Kalman D. Migler, Charles M. Guttman, William R. Blair
The dispersion of nanotubes in solution is necessary in order to achieve the goal of sorting and manipulating nanotubes by length and type and to then prepare high quality monodisperse samples. A necessary step is the proper characterization of the

Measurement of Complex Impedance of Individual Metallic Carbon Nanotubes

May 3, 2007
Author(s)
Jan Obrzut, Kalman D. Migler, L F. Dong, J Jiao
We describe impedance measurements of individual single wall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the frequency range of 40 Hz to 100 MHz. The extracted CNT capacitance of 4 10-14 F/mm, is independent of the total resistance, however the CCNT value is larger than

Length Dependent Uptake of DNA-Wrapped Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes

January 1, 2007
Author(s)
Matthew Becker, Jeffrey Fagan, Nathan D. Gallant, Barry J. Bauer, Vardhan Bajpai, Erik K. Hobbie, Silvia H. De Paoli Lacerda, Kalman D. Migler, J P. Jakupciak
DNA-wrapped single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with broad length distributions are shown to reduce the viability of IMR90 primary human lung fibroblast cells above the (23 to 25) ug/mL concentration regime. Furthermore using well-defined length fractions

Comparative Measures of Single Wall Carbon Nanotube Dispersion

September 14, 2006
Author(s)
Jeffrey A. Fagan, Brian Landi, Idan Mandelbaum, Vardhan Bajpai, Barry J. Bauer, Kalman D. Migler, Jeffrey R. Simpson, Angela R. Hight Walker, Ryan Raffaelle, Erik K. Hobbie
Model polymer composites of DNA wrapped single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) dispersed in polyacrylic acid are used for a systematic comparison of the different metrologies currently used to evaluate SWNT dispersion. Application of a pH-controlled

Dynamics of Wormlike Micelles in Elongational Flows

January 1, 2006
Author(s)
Philip A. Stone, Paul Dalhaimer, Dennis E. Discher, Eric J. Amis, Steven D. Hudson, Kalman D. Migler
Micelles formed of amphiphilic diblock copolymers may have applications in drug delivery and in understanding the physics of biological structures. Wormlike micelles, in particular, provide an opportunity to study the behavior of semiflexible rods in
