'Seeing' Strain in Soft Materials.
Several technologies can be used for measuring strains of soft materials under high rate impact conditions. These technologies include high speed tensile test, split Hopkinson pressure bar test, digital image correlation and high speed X-ray imaging. However, none of these existing technologies can produce a continuous 3D spatial strain distribution in the test specimen. Here we report a novel passive strain sensor based on poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) elastomer with covalently incorporated spiropyran (SP) mechanophore to measure impact induced strains. We have shown that the incorporation of SP into PDMS at 0.25 wt% level can adequately measure impact strains via color change under a high strain rate of 1500 s Topics: Benzopyrans; Brain Injuries, Traumatic; Color; Dimethylpolysiloxanes; Elasticity; Humans; Imaging, Three-Dimensional; Indoles; Materials Testing; Models, Chemical; Nitro Compounds; Pressure; Stress, Mechanical; Tensile Strength; Time Factors | 2019 |
