A facile one step route that introduces functionality to polymer powders for laser sintering (2024)
Journal Article
Krumins, E., Crawford, L. A., Rogers, D. M., Machado, F., Taresco, V., East, M., …Howdle, S. M. (2024). A facile one step route that introduces functionality to polymer powders for laser sintering. Nature Communications, 15(1), Article 3137. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-47376-4

Laser Sintering (LS) is a type of Additive Manufacturing (AM) exploiting laser processing of polymeric particles to produce 3D objects. Because of its ease of processability and thermo-physical properties, polyamide-12 (PA-12) represents ~95% of the...

Kerogen nanoscale structure and CO2 adsorption in shale micropores (2021)
Journal Article
Gonciaruk, A., Hall, M. R., Fay, M. W., Parmenter, C. D. J., Vane, C. H., Khlobystov, A. N., & Ripepi, N. (2021). Kerogen nanoscale structure and CO2 adsorption in shale micropores. Scientific Reports, 11, Article 3920. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-83179-z

Gas storage and recovery processes in shales critically depend on nano-scale porosity and chemical composition, but information about the nanoscale pore geometry and connectivity of kerogen, insoluble organic shale matter, is largely unavailable. Usi... Read More about Kerogen nanoscale structure and CO2 adsorption in shale micropores.
