Dr. Ray showed some great images and videos of nanoparticles in solutions.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">I just saw this blog! </span><br />
<br />
1. Describe your observation of the common liquid in which he started his talk. <br />
<span style="color: red;">I was 5 minutes late for class and must have missed this part. Although I thought what He presented to the class was one of the most interesting pieces and applications of nano.</span><br />
2. Dr. Ray explain two ways in which keep small particles from sticking to themselves and aggregating in to large masses. He explained that the surface area of these particles is important to maintain to feel the benefits of the nanosize. Explain those two methods that he described<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">he talked about the large football huddle or "fight" huddle. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">He talked about the two lines coming togethar and meeting and then being forced apart. I didn't understand the surface area part being important for not sticking together... but I do remember the object having the surface area the size of a football field.</span>Gooberhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17332136063364315649noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-724493301441934427.post-90059710463845084862011-12-22T10:06:00.000-08:002011-12-22T10:06:23.852-08:00Blog Post 15: Dr. Asthana PresentationDr. Rajiv Asthana presented to our class his work on nano and micro materials. There were two topics that were of particular interest. For this post I would like for you to explore the topics/questions below:<br />
<br />
1. What are grains and grain boundaries in a material? I suggest you focus on metals. Explain how material properties are affected by the size of these grains.<br />
<br />
2. How does one engineer or process materials to reduce the grain size? In particular, I would like for you to explore and then explain how single crystal silicon is produced for the solar industry.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Dr. Schultz,</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">I was gone on my career development conference this week. Is there anything I can do to make up this blog?</span><br />

Post a brief description (and link) to a general overview of MALDI. </h3><div>A great resource for protein is at the Protein Data Bank at: http://www.pdb.org/pdb/home/home.do</div><div class="post-title entry-title"> primary can make structures...like a spring</div>Trtiary Structure- alpha beta structures ... we are able to make models.<br />
Dalton = unit of mass. Think molecular mass- molecular mass of a given molecule of mass = 20 kDa (20,000 Dalton)<br />
<br />
m/z = mass to charge ratio... MALDI requires ionization.<br />
MALDI-TOF Mass Spectometry... put dry plate in a vaccuum to observe. need matrix (yellow stuff on sample plate) ionizes assisted laser absorbtion.<br />

Time of Flight (TOF)<br />
Bradykinen(1080.210) and Neurotensin (1673.932) = biological structures that do stuff. 5 parts per million can tell exact identification. (Accurate Mass)<br />
MALDI lets you visualize.<br />
MALDi TOF-TOF = get peptide sequence information. very exciting biological studies like multiple sclorosis. Sample lake water... spin down the cells... put on plate... profile cynobacteria isolated from lakewater. Cool part is it takes minutes to get profile! Hospitals can use this with patients and analyzing there bacteria. Snake venim is another popular profiling use.<br />

</tbody> </table> Electroactive textile fibres and fabrics have been used in <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">smart</span></span> and interactive clothing for medical, military and sports applications. The improved surface properties of conductive textiles are required for their successful integration in all of the above mentioned applications. This paper presents the production of conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) coated viscose yarns in longer length, i.e. 5 m, and the surface modification of the coated yarns by treating with silicone solution. The structural properties of silicone coated conductive yarns were then investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The effect of silicone coating on the mechanical, electrical and hydrophobic properties was also evaluated and then compared with the PEDOT coated viscose yarns without surface treatment. Results show that the mechanical and hydrophobic properties of conductive yarns were improved by surface modification with silicone without affecting their structural properties. The surface modified PEDOT coated yarns could be used as pressure and stretch sensors in health care applications. <br />

<span class="FR_label">Abstract:</span> We describe a simple layer-by-layer (LbL) technology and counterion exchange procedure to tune the liquid wettability of commercially available cotton fabrics. A polyelectrolyte multilayer is deposited on the <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabric</span></span> surface by the LbL technology, and counterion exchange is used to control the surface composition and thereby to modulate the solid surface energy. The tunability of the solid surface energy, along with the inherent re-entrant texture of the cotton <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabric</span></span>, results in simultaneously switchable wettability between a nonwetting state and a fully wetted state for water and hexadecane. This switchable hydrophobicity and oleophobicity can be explained within a robustness factor, which is a quantitative criterion for the transition between the two states. The counterion exchange can be confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. <br />

<tr><td class="fr_data_row">A carefully designed surface modification technique for the manufacture of multifunctional silk textile nanocomposite materials is successfully developed by the functionalization of silk with TiO(2) and TiO(2)@Ag nanoparticles (NPs). The NPs are assembled onto a silk substrate through covalent linkages, including enediol ligand-metal oxide bonding, resin dehydration and the acylation of silk. Owing to the strong chemical bonding, silk fibroin <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabric</span></span> (SFF) and the NPs form a stable composite system. The functionalized SFF, especially TiO(2)@Ag NP-functionalized SFF are endowed with remarkable UV protection properties, and an efficient anti-bacterial capability toward Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Furthermore, the nearly total photodegradation of methylene orange (MO) under UV illumination illustrates that functionalized SFF possesses high photocatalytic and self-cleaning capability. This multifunctional silk material satisfies the market demand for natural "<span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">smart</span></span>" products, and is a promising practical material for use in the textile industry, hospital sterilization and environmental cleanup.

<tr> <td class="fr_data_row"> A facile technique is demonstrated for the fabrication of super water repellent co-polymer blend-silver composite films from fatty acid surface functionalized fine silver flakes. Initially, high concentrations of surface functionalized silver flakes were dispersed in poly(vinyl chloride-co-vinyl acetate-co-vinyl alcohol) copolymer in solution to form electrically conducting adhesives/paints (ECAs) with a bulk resistivity of similar to 3 x 10(-5) Omega cm. The solvent-borne ECAs were then blended with a water-dispersed perfluoromethacrylate copolymer (Zonyl 8740) using a simple solvent-inversion process to obtain super water-repellent colloidal copolymer blend-silver emulsions. The colloidal emulsions could be spray-deposited on a number of fibrous substrates including fabrics and paper. A particular example is demonstrated herein by spray-depositing these emulsions onto molten paraffin wax-based laminates (60 degrees C), which were partially impregnated into fabrics to fabricate highly water repellent, flexible, and thermoresponsive fabrics. A paraffin wax/polyolefin blend base film was used for the purpose. The surface topology of the superhydrophobic copolymer/silver composite films displayed fractal-like hierarchical structures ideal for self-cleaning hydrophobicity. On relatively low-absorbent permeable porous surfaces such as cellulosic films (paper) impregnated with wax/polyolefin films, self-cleaning ability of the coatings was maintained even for temperatures at which paraffin wax component of the laminated film was molten indicated by low-water roll-off angles. Hence, the composites have excellent compatibility with organic phase change materials such as paraffin wax and wax/polyolefin blends, and they can be used to fabricate nonwetting, thermoregulated, and electroactive fabrics. Antimicrobial properties of silver offer additional advantages for potential biomedical applications. POLYM. COMPOS., 32: 576-585, 2011. (C) 2011 Society of Plastics Engineers <br />

Electrocardiogram (ECG) electrodes have been developed by various textile technologies such as sputtering or electroless-plating on the fabric surfaces, and embroidering or knitting with stainless steel yarns. In addition, two types of motion sensors have also been developed using piezo-resistive textiles. They were fabricated by knitting and braiding. <br />
<br />
To examine the usability of the ECG electrode, waveforms of the conventional AgCl electrode, and the new electrodes developed in our lab were compared. It was found that electrodes using metallic embroidering are more efficient when its substrate was a metal blended fabric. The electrolessly Cu/Ni plated <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabrics</span></span> obtained the best conductivity in textile-based electrodes. The first motion-measuring textile-based sensor was used to predict and measure the changes in electric resistances that accompany the angle changes in the elbow joint. An advanced piezo-resistive textile by braiding showed more accurate resistance changes and also better durability. Changes in its electrical resistance were mapped to changes in its length extension. From the relationship between the extension and the electrical resistance, movement or posture of human body was detected. <br />

<tr> <td class="fr_data_row"><span class="FR_label"><strong>Abstract:</strong></span> The characteristic properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), particularly their heat conduction, electrical conductivity, high modulus of elasticity, high strength, and resistance to chemicals, have resulted in widespread application of CNTs in nanotechnologies. In this study, CNTs were used to impart specific functionality to textiles by printing techniques. To this aim, modified commercial aqueous dispersions of multiwalled CNTs from Nanocyl (R) were used for preparing special compositions as paste for printing by conventional techniques (screen printing) and as inks for ink-jet printing to bestow the fabric antistatic and antibacterial properties. Taking into account the importance of the dispersion level of CNT in the printing composition from the point of view of antistatic properties, the quality of the CNT dispersion was assessed on the basis of particle size distribution by means of a DLS PSS Nicomp device. Printings were done on two types of woven <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabrics</span></span>: 100% cotton and 30/70% cotton/polyester blend. The CNTs used in printing were found to impart antistatic and antibacterial properties to the printed <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabrics</span></span>. These imparted properties were resistant to repeated washing.<br />

<tr> <td class="fr_data_row"><span class="FR_label"><strong>Abstract:</strong></span> In the past, wrinkle-resistant finishes on cotton <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabrics</span></span> involved the application of melamine-formaldehyde- or urea-formaldehyde-based resins with many more recent agents being based on dimethyloldihydroxyethyleneurea (DMDHEU). This study reports that the DMDHEU-TiO(2) combination can enhance the wrinkle-resistance of cotton <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabrics</span></span>. The addition of TiO(2) or nano-TiO(2) in the treatment can also act as a multi-functional finishing agent to improve the UV protection property. Moreover, it was found that addition of TiO(2) or nano-TiO(2) could slightly increase the tearing strength of test specimens to compensate for the drawbacks of DMDHEU. However, the addition of metal oxide did not significantly improve the tensile strength of specimens. In addition, it was found that while DMDHEU-treated cotton specimens contained small quantities of free formaldehyde, these levels are reduced when nano-TiO(2) is added to the treatment. <br />

Surface wetting characteristics of coatings prepared from two chemically and structurally different POSS molecules, a closed cage fluorinated dodecatrifluoropropyl POSS (FL-POSS) and an open cage nonfluorinated trisilanolphenyl POSS (Tsp-POSS), were evaluated with time and compared with Teflon. Surface analysis, including Atomic Force Microscopy, SEM/EDAX, and NMR revealed the presence of POSS aggregates on the fabric surface leading to a spiky topography, high roughness, and hysteresis. POSS coated <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">fabrics</span></span> showed complete reversal of surface wetting characteristics with contact angles higher than the benchmark Teflon surface. <span class="hitHilite"><span style="background-color: yellow;">Water</span></span> contact angle measured as a function of time showed equivalent or better performance for POSS-coated surfaces in comparison to Teflon.

</div><div>address any safety/environmental concerns<br />
<span style="color: blue;">FHeet are completely safe to the user and environment.</span> <br />
<br />
<span class="bodytext"><span style="color: blue;">Due to the advanced nano technologies used to produce aerogel insulation, in its raw form aerogel insulation will release extremely fine dust called nano particles. That is why we must encapsulate the aerogel to utilize it in our garments. If the encapsulation is punctured, the aerogel nano-particles will "dust" through the hole and fabrics of the garment. This dust feels like the chalk dust you would rub off of a black board in a school room. It is harmless to the wearer, but the puncture must be fixed to prevent further damage to the panel. </span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<li><span style="color: blue;">With nanotechnology, less is really more. Small silver particles have a greater surface area available to interface with bacteria, thus increasing efficacy while conserving silver raw materials. Only a tiny amount of silver is needed to get a tremendous amount of benefit. </span></li><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<li><span style="color: blue;">NanoHorizons’ silver additives are embedded in fibers, polymers and coatings. The minute amount of silver ions that these silver particles emit during normal use is the key to silver’s benefits in therapeutics, pathogen control, odor control, and materials preservation. In wastewater, these emitted silver ions are quickly deactivated by common substances—like chloride and sulfide—to form unreactive minerals.</span></li><br />

<span style="color: blue;">Additional cost information could not be found. My intent would be for these socks to be of equal or less cost than original SmartWool socks.</span></div><div><br />
</div><div>address any regulations that may need to be addressed<br />

<span style="color: magenta;">Quantum Effect</span><br />
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Nano">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Nano</a><br />
Samsung home appliances, such as refrigerators or air conditioners, have a silver nano coating on their inner surfaces for an overall anti-bacterial and anti-fungal effect. As air circulates, the coated surfaces contact with the silver ions which can resist any airborne bacteria, which in turn suppress the respiration of bacteria, adversely affects bacteria's cellular metabolism and inhibits cell growth.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Nano#cite_note-1"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #0645ad;">[2]</span></span></a></sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-2"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Nano#cite_note-2"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #0645ad;">[3]</span></span></a></sup><br />
Samsung says the silver nano technology sterilizes over 650 types of bacteria and that "Samsung WM1245A Washing Machine releases over 400 billion silver ions which penetrate deeply into fabrics of any kind and create a coat of sterilizing protection for a maximum of 99.99% disinfection and an added antibacterial effect of up to 30 days after washing".<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-3"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Nano#cite_note-3"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #0645ad;">[4]</span></span></a></sup><br />
According to Paul Lipscomb, Product Manager, White Goods, Samsung Australia: "The Silver Wash system means that it's no longer necessary to soak clothes in additives or wash at extremely high temperatures in order to sanitise them. This combined with Samsung front loading washing machine's industry leading water efficiency ratings of up to 5A, creates a major saving on the long term cost of running the washing machine."<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-4"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Nano#cite_note-4"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #0645ad;">[5]</span></span></a></sup><br />

<a href="http://autos.aol.com/article/high-tech-tires/">http://autos.aol.com/article/high-tech-tires/</a><br />
With NPT we've been able to insert polymers that attach the to carbon black molecules and actually cause them to space themselves somewhat homogeneously. They're not touching each other, so you get a much cooler running temperature, which results in a significant reduction in rolling resistance. It also improves the traction."<br />

</div>2. Determine the distance between the line patterns on the slides, and how thick the lines may be based on your changing of the simulator to duplicate the pattern you measured.<br />
Distance betwen the line patterns on the slide: <span style="color: blue;">smaller slit width = more dots</span><br />
Thickness of lines: <span style="background-color: white; color: blue;">smaller slit seperation = less dots</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Due to the limitations of the simulation tool, we were unable give you an accurate picture of the simulation. Our ratio in real life was 125%. (x=1250mm,Y=10mm) The biggest I could represent on the simulator was 7%. Math calculations tell us that the slit width is 22nm (x=174035 nm, Y=1392.28 nm) theta = .458356468 degrees </span></div><div></div><div><br />

4. Which light can measure smaller things, red light or green light? Post an image of the simulator demonstrating this. <br />
<span style="color: blue;">The green light can measure smaller things b/c it has shorter wavelengths. (like blue-ray= smaller burns marks for more laser)</span><br />

- 6.02 X 10^23 carbon atoms.<br />
- 15 trillion earths<br />
- The quantity of anything. Any time you want to refer to a large number of things. It's easier to say the unit "mole", than to write 6.02 x 10^23.<br />
- Gives us a consistent method to convert between atoms/ molecules and grams. <br />
- Although it doesn't seem like it at first, once one becomes familiar with a mole, it will be as normal as a dozen or a byte.<br />
- If you had a mole of pennies, you could give out enough money to everyone in the world so that they could spend a million dollars every hour, day and night, for the rest of their lives.<br />
- If you had exactly one mole of sheets of paper, you could make one million equal stacks from sea level on the earth that would pass the sun.<br />
- Given that the volume of a grain of sand is approximately 10<sup>-12</sup> m<sup>3</sup>, and given that the area of the United States is about 10<sup>13</sup>m<sup>2</sup>, it therefore follows that a mole of sand grains would cover the United States in approximately one centimeter of sand.<br />
<br />
<b><u>10 NANOMETERS</u></b> =<br />
- 1nm=10^ -9m (reduced 1 billion meters)<br />
- 10nm= 10^ -8m (.000000001)<br />
- 100nm= 10^ -7m<br />
- 1,000nm= 10^ -6m = 1mm<br />
<br />
- size of a virus <br />
- Size of a cell wall<br />
- as a mm is to a km a nm is to a m<br />
- 10 nm = 10 nanometres = 10<sup>−8</sup> metres<br />
- 10 nm — lower size of tobacco smokeGooberhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17332136063364315649noreply@blogger.com0
