Over the past few years, open foam filters have gained prominence for their ability to efficiently capture particles while allowing reasonable airflow. In this work, we present the use of 3D-printed idealized open foam-like lattice structures as aerosol filtration media, leveraging advances in additive manufacturing to generate these highly tunable and modular filters. Using parametric design approaches, we fabricated lattice filters with four different unit cell geometries (Cubic, Kelvin, Octahedron, and Weaire-Phelan) via Digital Light Synthesis 3D printing and characterized these structures with X-ray microcomputed tomography. We compared the aerosol filtration performance of the different lattice unit cell geometries using 1 μm polystyrene latex (PSL) aerosol particles, finding the filtration performance to be positively correlated with the single-unit-cell specific surface area. We then expanded our evaluation of deposition efficiency in Kelvin cell lattice structures of varied porosities, again finding a correlation between the specific surface area and deposition performance. Experimental analysis confirmed that deposition primarily occurs through impaction and electrostatic mechanisms within the parameter space. Overall, our findings demonstrate that unit-cell-based lattices can achieve a wide range of aerosol filtration efficiencies (∼10-100%) across various operating conditions (1-4 m/s superficial velocity), offering a highly tunable in-line filtration medium capable of maintaining high efficiency even at elevated airflow rates. This work not only provides essential guidelines for designing and manufacturing 3D-printed lattices as customizable aerosol filters but also highlights the current limitations and challenges in producing these structures.</p>","PeriodicalId":55639,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Engineering Materials","volume":"2 12","pages":"2875-2884"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11686461/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142916331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we introduce a novel liquid-assisted ultrahigh-speed electrospinning (LAUHS-ES) technique that achieved actual production rates over 220 times faster than conventional methods. This dramatic increase in throughput is achieved through Taylor cone stabilization using a thin layer of liquid sheath, allowing for ultrahigh-speed electrospinning without compromising the structural integrity or uniformity of the nanofibers. Comprehensive characterization, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), confirmed the high quality, consistency, and crystallinity of the produced nanofibers.

However, its intrinsic hydrophobicity requires harsh pretreatment and processing before being fully usable as a product in the field of clothing and sportswear.

The protein was produced in an easy, one-step, and scalable recombinant expression. Functionalization of PET with the AP-SUP fusion protein was achieved through dip coating in aqueous solution at room temperature, offering an energy efficient and resource saving textile finishing process that is compatible with existing machinery in the textile finishing industry.

Furthermore, the formation of a surface oxide skin on emulsified LM droplets complicates their interfacial dynamics and often deteriorates the performance of the resulting emulsions. In this study, we demonstrate that polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), which can coordinate-bond with LM, markedly increases the emulsification efficiency of LM in ethanol (EtOH), thereby enabling the formation of highly viscoelastic LM-in-EtOH emulsion pastes via simple shear mixing using a mortar and pestle. The growth of the oxide layer is controlled by the surface-adsorbed PVPs, which form an interdroplet percolation network. The resulting PVP-mediated “structured” emulsions exhibit significantly higher thermal conductivities than their additive-free counterparts under a given LM load, owing to the formation of an effective thermal transport network of interconnected conductive LM droplets with controlled growth of insulating oxide skin. Industry-relevant blade coating using these LM-in-EtOH emulsions is demonstrated, during which LM droplets coated on nonstretchable substrates readily develop anisotropy under applied shear, which may be potentially useful for directed thermal transport in relevant applications.
