LAYER RIGIDITY

As a result of the relatively rigid layers, strong forces are exterted on the interlayer guests in LDHs. From the magnitude of the red shift in the photoluminescence observed on intercalation of [SmWio036] in LDHs, it has been estimated that the layers exert a uniaxial stress of about 14 GPa on the guest anion [96,97].

The model introduced by Stern (2), which is in best agreement with all experimental facts, combines a distribution of charges in a space charge layer (diffuse part of the double layer) and the Helmholtz layer (rigid part of the double layer). Ions are assumed to be adsorbed on the electrode and thus bound to the surface by chemical forces. If strongly adsorbed ions are present at the interface, the rigid double layer predominates in determining the electrical properties of the interface. 

Unlike the layered metal oxides, layer rigidity appear to be a critical factor in the pure sheet silicates. These problems are also overcome by altering the charge density or by preswelling the material. This lack of rigidity in these materials has been thought to result in the generation of three-dimensional nano-porous phases . 

Fig. 32.5 shows a thin-layer rigid adhesive bond, made with an acrylic adhesive cured under UV light The expansion and deflection of the bonded substrates causes stress peaks at the ends of the overlaps, which is why the adhesive layer is beginning to break down at this point The central part of the bond face, on the other hand, contributes very little to the load-bearing capacity of the joint.

Layer rigidity is an essential requirement for the pillaring of any lamellar solid. In the absence of such rigidity, attractive interactions between layers would result in distortion in the region between pillars, and such layer distortions would lead to the collapse of the gallery pores.

High Density Multi-layer Rigid/Flex for Industrial Use... 

Polyimide films or adhesiveless copper laminates can be used as the cap layer instead of thick glass epoxy materials for reducing the thickness of the rigid/area that is sometimes called multi-layer flex. The total thickness of the 6 layer rigid part for SMT can be less than 400 microns.

Dimensional control is one of the major keys to have a high process yields. Even though dimensional stable laminates are selected, the thin flexible materials will have remarkable shrinkages during the multi-layer rigid/flex s multiple thermal processes of the. The correction factors for the each thermal or chemical process should be measured carefully. Appropriate work sizes should be chosen carefully to optimize the process yields. 

The Stern model (1924) essentially combines the Helmholtz and Gouy-Chapman models as shown in Figure 5.4. Thus, the Stern model has two parts of double layer (a) compact layer ("rigid layer") of ions at the distance of closest approach (OHP) and (b) diffuse layer. The concentration of ions and the potential distribution from the electrode vary as shown in Figures 5.3 and 5.4. The potential has a sharp drop between the electrode and OHP beyond which the potential gradually falls to a value characteristic of bulk electrolyte.
