Nanostructural Organization of Thin Films Prepared by Sequential Dip-Coating Deposition of Poly(Butylene Succinate), Poly(ε-Caprolactone) and Their Copolyesters (PBS-ran-PCL)
(Elsevier, 2021-06-04)
In this work, we prepare and characterize multiphasic thin films containing poly(epsilon-caprolactone), PCL, poly (butylene succinate), PBS, and a poly (butylene succinate-ran-epsilon-caprolactone) (PBS-ran-PCL) random ...
Synthesis, Structure and Crystallization Behavior of Amphiphilic Hetero-arm Molecular Brushes with Crystallizable Poly(ethylene oxide) and N-Alkyl Side Chains
(ACS, 2020-02-24)
A series of hetero-arm amphiphilic molecular brushes (AMBs) with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and long chain n-alkyl side chains were synthesized via conventional free radical polymerization (FRP) of mainly 4-vinyl benzyl-PEG ...
Crystallization, Orientation and Solid−Solid Crystal Transition of Polybutene‐1 Confined within Nanoporous Alumina
(ACS, 2020-07-31)
The effect of confinement on the crystallization, crystal orientation, and polymorphic crystal transition of bulk and infiltrated polybutene-1 (PB-1) within nanoporous alumina templates (AAO) were studied. After cooling ...
Effect of the crystallization conditions on the exclusion/inclusion balance in biodegradable poly(butylene succinate-ran-butylene adipate) copolymers
(ACS, 2020-07-14)
Biomedical applications of polymers require precise control of the solid-state structure, which is of particular interest for biodegradable copolymers. In this work, we evaluated the influence of crystallization conditions ...
Organocatalyzed Polymerization of PET-mb-poly(oxyhexane) Copolymers and Their Self-Assembly into Double Crystalline Superstructures
(ACS Publications, 2019-08-30)
Double crystalline multi-block copolymers exhibit two well-defined melting temperatures associated with the two phases formed by their constituent blocks. The crystalline superstructure formed in these copolymers is complex ...
Effect of the TrFE Content on the Crystallization and SSA Thermal Fractionation of P(VDF-co-TrFE) Copolymers
(MDPI, 2022-09-08)
In this contribution, we study the effect of trifluoro ethylene (TrFE) comonomer content (samples with 80/20, 75/25, and 70/30 VDF/TrFE molar ratios were used) on the crystallization in P(VDF-co-TrFE) in comparison with a ...
Characterization and Modification of Red Mud and Ferrosilicomanganese Fines and Their Application in the Synthesis of Hybrid Hydrogels
(MDPI, 2022-10-14)
In this work, hybrid hydrogels were synthesized with the inclusion of two types of clay materials that are considered industrial waste: red mud (RM) and ferrosilicomanganese fines (FeSiMn). These solid waste materials were ...
Structure and Properties of Reactively Extruded Opaque Post-Consumer Recycled PET
(MDPI, 2021-10-14)
The recyclability of opaque PET, which contains TiO2 nanoparticles, has not been as well-studied as that of transparent PET. The objective of this work is to recycle post-consumer opaque PET through reactive extrusion with ...
Novel Biobased Polyamide 410/Polyamide 6/CNT Nanocomposites
(MDPI, 2018-09)
Biobased polyamide 410 (PA410)/multiwall carbon nanotube (CNT) nanocomposites (NCs) were obtained by melt-mixing in a twin screw extruder a Polyamide 6 (PA6)-based masterbatch (with 15 wt % CNT content) with neat PA410. ...
Synthesis, Structure, Crystallization and Mechanical Properties of Isodimorphic PBS-ran-PCL Copolyesters
(MDPI, 2021-07-09)
Isodimorphic behavior is determined by partial inclusion of comonomer segments within the crystalline structure and arises from the comparatively similar repeating chain units of the parental homopolymers. Isodimorphic ...
