Abstract: A three-dimensional printing system can include a build material including from about 95 wt % to 100 wt % of thermoplastic elastomer particles having a D50 particle size from about 2 μm to about 150 μm, and a printhead fluidly coupled to or fluidly coupleable to a fusing agent to selectively and iteratively eject the fusing agent onto successive placed individual layers thereof. The fusing agent can include water and a radiation absorber. The three-dimensional printing system can also include a radiant energy source positioned to expose the individual layers of the build material to radiation energy to selectively fuse the thermoplastic elastomer particles in contact with the radiation absorber to iteratively form a three-dimensional object including multiple layers of fused thermoplastic elastomer, and a heating device to heat the three-dimensional object to a temperature sufficient that layer-to-layer fusion at an interior location of the three-dimensional object is enhanced.

Abstract: A polymer article includes an at least partially disentangled polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) family member composition and is characterized by an elastic modulus of at least 4 GPa and an electromechanical coupling factor (k31) of at least 0.1 at room temperature. A method of manufacturing such a polymer article may include forming an at least partially disentangled polymer composition into a polymer thin film or fiber, applying a tensile stress to the polymer article in an amount effective to induce a stretch ratio of at least approximately 5 in the thin film or fiber, and applying an electric field across a thickness dimension of the polymer article. Annealing and poling steps may separately or simultaneously accompany and/or follow the act of stretching.

Abstract: A method of forming a flexible, stretchable, crush resistant axially extending hose includes: providing coils entirely of thermoplastic material to form a continuous and hollow helix; providing a thin, narrow, elongate web of thermoplastic material that extends between adjacent coils of the helix and has edge regions welded to adjacent ones of the coils to form a single continuous wall with the web having a centrally located fold situated between adjacent ones of the coils; and subjecting the hose to an annealing process while axially compressing the hose so that molecules of the thermoplastic material forming the coils of the helix and the thin elongate web are relaxed such that stress is substantially absent from the hose when the coils of the helix are close together.

Abstract: An extensible-retractable helically reinforced hose is formed by helically wrapping a freshly extruded bead of thermoplastic material about a rotating mandrel to form a helical array of spaced reinforcing coils, and by helically wrapping a freshly extruded thin yet wide web of thermoplastic material so edge regions of the wide web are placed onto and bond continuously with the peripheries of each adjacent pair of the reinforcing coils, with a leading edge region of each new wrap of the web overlying and bonding to a trailing edge region of a prior web wrap. Central portions of each web wrap extend radially inwardly and are sandwiched between adjacent reinforcing coils when the hose is retracted to a minimal axial length.

Abstract: A method for producing anchor rods from a fiber composite material includes a solidifying step during which a strand of a curable matrix material with embedded fibers is conveyed to an irradiation device and solidified by an irradiation with light. In a subsequent curing step, the solidified strand is conveyed to an annealing device and is cured by heating to an annealing temperature. A portion of the cured strand forms an anchor rod. The strand is continuously conveyed past or into the irradiation device in a depression of a circulating conveyor belt. The depression of the conveyor belt comprises profiled inner wall regions, via which, during the solidifying step, a surface profiling of the strand conveyed therein is effected. The conveyor belt consists of a light-permeable material, so that multiple illumination devices can illuminate the strand conveyed on the conveyor belt from various directions.

Abstract: Methods of increasing thermal conductivity of a bulk polymer are provided. The methods include contacting a bulk polyelectrolyte polymer comprising an ionizable repeating pendant group with an aqueous liquid having a pH that ionizes the pendant group and isotropically extend the polyelectrolyte polymer to an extended non-globular chain conformation. The polyelectrolyte polymer so treated thus exhibits a thermal conductivity of greater than or equal to about 0.6 W/m·K and optionally greater than or equal to about 1 W/m·K. In other aspects, the present disclosure provides a high thermal conductivity material comprising a bulk polyelectrolyte polymer bearing a repeating charged group and having an extended non-globular chain conformation and that exhibits a thermal conductivity of greater than or equal to about 0.6 W/m·K and optionally greater than or equal to about 1 W/m·K. The high thermal conductivity material may be used in electronic devices, including as housings/encapsulation and thermal interfaces.

Abstract: A method of making a flexible medical article or tube, for example, a sheath for a vascular access device, is provided. The method can include extruding a polymer, for example, a polycarbonate-urethane copolymer, to form a tube and annealing the extruded polymer. The method can further include cutting the extruded tube to a desired length before or after annealing, flaring one end of the annealed tube and over-molding the flared portion onto a hub, and forming the other end of the tube into a tip. A sheath formed by such a method is also provided.
