“…The melt temperature plays a major role in shrinkage reduction on the molded part. Huang et al [ 37 ] developed an AAO template as a mold in fabricating a nanostructure on a plastic thin film for nanoimprinting. Analytical results demonstrated that imprinting temperature and de-molding temperature were the most important factors in determining the contact angle of molded PLA and PC thin films for nanoimprinting.…”

In these times of Industrial 4.0 and Health 4.0, people currently want to enhance the ability of science and technology, to focus on patient aspects. However, with intelligent, green energy and biomedicine these days, traditional three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has been unable to meet our needs, so 4D printing has now arisen. In this research, a shape-memory composite material with 3D printing technology was used for 4D printing technology. The authors used fused deposition modeling (FDM) to print a polylactic acid (PLA) strip onto the surface of paper to create a shape-memory composite material, and a stimulus (heat) was used to deform and recover the shape of this material. The deformation angle and recovery angle of the material were studied with various processing parameters (heating temperature, heating time, pitch, and printing speed). This research discusses optimal processing related to shape-memory situations of stimulus-responsive composite materials. The optimal deformation angle (maximum) of the stimulus-responsive composite material was found with a thermal stimulus for an optimal heating temperature of 190 °C, a heating time of 20 s, a pitch of 1.5 mm, and a printing speed of 80 mm/s. The optimal recovery angle (minimum) of this material was found with a thermal stimulus for an optimal heating temperature of 170 °C, a heating time of 90 s, a pitch of 2.0 mm, and a printing speed of 80 mm/s. The most important factor affecting both the deformation and recovery angle of the stimulus-responsive composite material was the heating temperature.

“…NPA has been used as a template to create nanostructures for many applications [40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53]. A few studies have also shown its use in creating wavelength-selective absorbers due to their excellent optical properties, scalability, and thermal stability [29,30,[54][55][56][57].…”

Solar-thermal energy conversion can be useful in many applications, including water desalination, and thermal energy storage. In this regard, using spectrally-selective solar absorbers is vital due to their high solar absorptance and low thermal emittance. While selective absorbers can be created using a wide range of nanomaterials, the underlying geometry may control the overall performance of solar-thermal energy conversion. With different geometries, it is possible to obtain a wide range of optical responses ranging from broadband to selective absorption of light. In this study, we focus on the role of nanostructure morphology of nickel-infused alumina (Ni/NPA) based spectrally-selective solar absorbers. This study demonstrates the use of the design of experiments to analyze the effect of various geometric factors on the resulting optical response of Ni/NPA in the context of solar-thermal energy conversion. We show how this approach can provide a unique insight into the role of various geometric factors on the solar absorptance and thermal emittance of Ni/NPA-based absorbers, and demonstrate how it can guide the development of spectrally-selective materials. We believe a similar approach can be useful in the development of other optical materials for different applications.
