“…Even when the influence of the surface area is taken into account, the pre-exponential factor for a solid-phase reaction might range from six to seven orders of magnitude. 26,46 These high values of the pre-exponential factor indicate the presence of a 'loose' complex. The negative values of ΔS ≠ confirm that the activated complex is better structured, or 'organized', than the initial reagent.…”

A thermogravimetric study of poly(ethyl cyanoacrylate) nanofibers was carried out at five heating rates with a linear increase in the temperature in a nitrogen atmosphere. The data provided by the thermogravimetric study were used to evaluate the kinetics of the degradation process using three isoconversional methods. Considering that the kinetic parameters of the process depend on the reaction mechanism, various approaches were applied in order to determine the most probable mechanism function. In this respect, the mechanism of thermal degradation of poly(ethyl cyanoacrylate) is a phase boundary reaction with cylindrical symmetry (F 0.5 function) as demonstrated by the z(⊍) master plots method, iso-temperature method and isoconversional method. On their basis, the values of the kinetic triplet (E a , A and the shape of the most appropriate f(⊍) function) of the process were obtained, and subsequently the thermodynamic functions of the activated complex formation were calculated. The thermal stability of the polymer was predicted according to the integral procedure decomposition temperature.

“…[ 6 ] Alky side chains directly affect the strength, set time, degradation rate and other properties of cyanoacrylate adhesives. [ 7,8 ] Various cyanoacrylates were studied as surgical sealants, including ethyl cyanoacrylate (ECA), methyl cyanoacrylate (MCA), propyl cyanoacrylate (PCA), isobutyl cyanoacrylate (IBCA), butyl cyanoacrylate (BCA), and octyl cyanoacrylate (OCA). [ 9 ] However, the choice of the cyanoacrylate adhesives should always be based on their biodegradability, and biocompatibility properties.…”

Cyanoacrylate glues are a renowned synthetic tissue sealant that cures rapidly through polymerization at room temperature, felicitating medical glues to treat skin wounds and surgical openings. Despite a wide range of cyanoacrylates available, only 2‐octyl cyanoacrylates (OCA) provides the best biocompatibility. In this study, the polymerization and adhesive properties of 2‐octyl cyanoacrylates (OCA) are explored in the presence of a highly biocompatible and biochemically inert polymer, poly(ethylene glycol) polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (PEG‐POSS). The effect of PEG‐POSS on the polymerization of OCA is examined on a plastic surface and over pig skin. A peel‐test is performed to evaluate the strength of OCA adhesive properties between two pieces of pig skin samples. Additionally, thin films of OCA are prepared using different fillers and evaluated for tear test. The results reveal that when applied on the plastic or pig skin, PEG‐POSS initiated polymerization in OCA yields a high molecular weight OCA polymer with much better adhesive properties compared to commercially available cyanoacrylate adhesives. The relative change in the molecular weights of OCA compared to commercially available cyanoacrylate bioadhesives such as Dermaflex is much higher. The pig skin peeling test shows that OCA needs higher peeling force than Dermaflex.

“…In the history of scientific research, 'serendipitous' events, or 'happy accidents', are known to have played significant roles in the advancement of innumerable fields. From the development of Post-it® notes (Schwager, 2000) and Super-glue® (Raja, 2016) to the discovery of x-rays (Shapiro, 1986) and the development of Viagra (Lesko, 2017), society has benefitted from these 'pleasant surprises'. The process of serendipity connects seemingly unrelated concepts in what can appear to be a highly subjective manner and relies on unique characteristics of the encountering individual to make these fortunate connections (Iaquinta et al, 2008;Maccatrozzo, van Everdingen, Aroyo, & Schreiber, 2017).…”

As our technological capabilities for filling information needs improve, developers seek to more effective ways to support different aspects of the users' experience. One aspect that is gaining attention as an emerging support area is serendipity. However, supporting serendipity within a recommender system is difficult because the experience is unexpected and, therefore unpredictable. While researchers agree that algorithms to support serendipity need to be able to provide a balance of surprise and value to the end user (Niu & Abbas, 2017), an understanding of how to provide that balance has not yet been realized. Information that could be puzzling or distracting to someone as they go about their research activities may provide the trigger someone else needs to make a serendipitous connection in their research. Reports of serendipitous occurrences in research settings have been identified in research commentaries (Campanario, 1996) and within full‐text research articles (Allen, Erdelez, & Marinov, 2013). This paper investigates the feasibility of automating the identification of information encounters in full‐text research articles. This study contributes to the development of algorithms for supporting serendipity in information systems. We identified four variables that are useful for predicting information encounters in 25‐35% of the instances. While we should continue to search for additional predictive variables, these findings present a novel approach to undertaking the support of serendipity in information systems.
