“…If the porous structure is applied to the board body, the effect of weight reduction can be achieved. If the porous structure is used in the bone repair of the human body, the unique porous structural characteristics can provide the necessary living space for the adhesion, migration and increment of bone cells, and can also provide the transmission channels of nutrients and metabolites for the reproduction and metabolism of cells (Hoque et al, 2014;Kim and Hong, 2018;Podshivalov et al, 2013).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the influence of the porous structure on the maximum stress and modulus of elasticity of the specimens which are fabricated by rapid prototypes. According to the experimental results, modify the theoretical formula of elastic modulus. Design/methodology/approach The Objet Eden 250 was used to prepare the Vero White photosensitive resin samples with different porosity (ranges from 25 to 65 per cent) and different pore structures. The mechanical properties of different samples were numerically simulated and the formulas of the modulus of elasticity were established. Through the compression test, the performance of the specimen is compared and analyzed, and the theoretical elastic modulus formula is optimized. Findings With the increase of porosity, the maximum stress of honeycomb structure specimens decreases. The maximum stress of the honeycomb structure specimen with circular pore shape is higher than the hexagon cross-section while the hexahedron and octahedron structure are the arms (wall thickness between pores) with a square cross-section. The error comparison between the modulus of elasticity before and after the structure models regression analysis shows that after the regression analysis, the error of theoretical value and the actual value is between 0 and 14 per cent which is lower than the value before the regression analysis which was between 5 and 27 per cent. Originality/value The paper obtains rules of the influence of different porous structures which were fabricated by the Vero White photosensitive resin material on mechanical properties and higher prediction accuracy formula of elastic modulus. The conclusions provide a theoretical basis for Northeastern University, China, to reduce mass and mechanical properties prediction of load-bearing parts.

“…Till date, the highest efficiency 9.3 % is achieved using PET (polyethylene terephthalate) nonwoven fabric and polyvinylidene fluoride as composite porous membrane as separator in the polymer DSSC. 12 Previous best efficiency photoconversion efficiency of 9.1 % has been reported using trilayered TiO2 film on a titanium (Ti) foil. 13 Whereas, the photoconversion efficiency of 8.1 % and 7.6 % were achieved with cells of active area of 0.25 cm 2 and 1.111 cm 2 respectively, with TiO2 nanoparticles on flexible ITO/PEN (tin doped indium oxide/polyethylene naphthalate) substrates reported with water based TiO2 paste.…”

Binder free TiO2 paste is prepared using tert-butyl alcohol in dilute acidic conditions at room temperature for flexible polymer dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC). The present paper reports the detailed studies carried out to elucidate the importance of stirring times during the paste preparation on the final device performance. The maximum conversion efficiency of 4.2 % was obtained for flexible DSSCs fabricated on ITO/PEN substrates using TiO2 paste prepared from an optimum stirring time of 8 hours. The effect of optimum stirring times on the device characteristics has been understood in terms of the detailed morphology and surface area measurements.
