“…Since AgNWs [182,183] are highly electrically conductive at low concentrations, electrodes with great transparency could be achieved using AgNWs. This can be considered a significant advantage of using AgNWs since conventional conductive materials used for flexible devices such as carbon nanotubes [184] exhibit relatively poor transparency. Experimental results also demonstrated the long-term stability of AgNW-based flexible microfluidic circuits over various deformations.…”

Miniaturization has been the driving force of scientific and technological advances over recent decades. Recently, flexibility has gained significant interest, particularly in miniaturization approaches for biomedical devices, wearable sensing technologies, and drug delivery. Flexible microfluidics is an emerging area that impacts upon a range of research areas including chemistry, electronics, biology, and medicine. Various materials with flexibility and stretchability have been used in flexible microfluidics. Flexible microchannels allow for strong fluid-structure interactions. Thus, they behave in a different way from rigid microchannels with fluid passing through them. This unique behaviour introduces new characteristics that can be deployed in microfluidic applications and functions such as valving, pumping, mixing, and separation. To date, a specialised review of flexible microfluidics that considers both the fundamentals and applications is missing in the literature. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary including: (i) Materials used for fabrication of flexible microfluidics, (ii) basics and roles of flexibility on microfluidic functions, (iii) applications of flexible microfluidics in wearable electronics and biology, and (iv) future perspectives of flexible microfluidics. The review provides researchers and engineers with an extensive and updated understanding of the principles and applications of flexible microfluidics.

The linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) products made by rotational molding (RM) usually involve two main problems of poor dimensional stability and insufficient mechanical properties. Although the decline in thermal expansion coefficient and rise in mechanical strength can be attained by filling with inorganic particles, the melt fluidity of LLDPE, which is of great importance for RM, would be significantly reduced. In this study, a combination of crosslinker low‐temperature blending and partial chemical crosslinking strategy is employed to enhance the dimensional stability and mechanical properties of LLDPE without sacrificing the melt fluidity. The structure–property relationships in the crosslinked specimens are analyzed based on X‐ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and dielectric spectrometry. The results show that our simple, low‐cost and universal strategy not only contributes to a better dimensional stability and significantly improved mechanical properties, but also endow the samples with promising processability and thermal stability.

“…Polyethylene (PE), as a thermoplastic material, is widely used in different fields of life and industry due to its superior low-temperature resistance, chemical stability, and toughness. [1][2][3] However, the flammability of PE has limited its wider application. Therefore, many flame retardants have been used to improve the flame retardance of PE.…”

Microcapsules (Mic-MBP) based on the melamine borate coated red phosphorus (RP) were prepared, and its synergistic flame retardant with zinc borate (ZB) on polyethylene (PE) was investigated. The flame retardant properties of the PE/20% Mic-MBP/10%ZB were superior to that of PE/20%RP/10%ZB. Furthermore, the limiting oxygen index of PE/20%Mic-MBP/10%ZB was 25.2%, and PE/20%Mic-MBP/10%ZB reached the UL-94V-0 rating. Compared with PE, the peak heat release rate (pk-HRR), total heat release (THR) and average effective heat of combustion (av-EHC) of PE/20%Mic-MBP/10%ZB had decreased. In addition, the flame retardant mechanism was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (PY-GC-MS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The results showed that the residual char of PE/20%Mic-MBP/10%ZB had thermal stability, and the formation of phosphorus free radicals and nonflammable gases effectively reduced the burning intensity of the gas phase. It indicated that Mic-MBP/ZB showed a condensed and gas phase flame retardant effect.
