Controlled synthesis of neodymium-based cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber bearing polystyrene microblock
A series of neodymium-based cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubbers bearing polystyrene microblocks were prepared by adding styrene monomer in aging stage of neodymium-based catalyst, the effects of different styrene amount on the polyme-rization behavior and ...

The stereochemistry of polybutadiene made by ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) evolves both during and after polymerization, as secondary metathesis shifts cis‐rich kinetic products toward trans‐rich equilibrium compositions. By tuning catalyst identity, additives, temperature, and reaction time, polybutadienes with 28%–80% trans content ...

ABSTRACT The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the advantage of computationally pre‐screening surface‐modifying material candidates, using density functional theory (DFT), to inform experimental synthesis and formulation efforts. This demonstration focuses on improving the solubility of benzene‐based materials in hydroxyl‐terminated ...

Field‐Cycling NMR Relaxometry in Tire Elastomer Science
Field‐cycling NMR relaxometry has established as an ideal tool to investigate multiscale polymer dynamics. Here, we review and discuss applications on elastomers and elastomer compounds of interest for the tire industry to obtain information on segmental dynamics and on polymer dynamics over different regimes as a function of chain length in polymer ...

Supercritical CO2 foaming of fully amorphous PLA/PHA blends produced low‐density closed‐cell foams with fine cellular morphology. Blending with PHA enhanced biodegradation under simulated home‐composting conditions, achieving up to 84% mass loss after 4 months, whereas marine degradation remained limited and was mainly restricted to the PHA component ...

The 100% recycling of optimal polycarbonate/acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PC/ABS/PMMA) blends, identified through the mixture design, over multiple successive cycles provides valuable insights into their life cycle. Subsequently, chemical, rheological, thermal and mechanical characterizations will be carried out to evaluate

ABSTRACT We report on the synthesis and characterization of 3‐(2‐(2‐azidoethoxy)ethoxy)‐4‐nitro‐1,2,5‐oxadiazole (NFPEG2N3), which is a liquid nitrofurazanyl ether that was designed to be an energy‐rich plasticizer for glycidyl azide polymer (GAP)‐ and nitrocellulose (NC)‐based formulations.

ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is an ever‐growing issue in the marine ecosystem around the world. However, the study on MP pollution in marine fish remains limited, particularly those conducted in Eastern Sarawak, Malaysia. Hence, this study investigated the occurrence of MP on the marine fish, collected from local fish market in the city of Sibu

Establishing Structure‐Property Relationships in Model Amphiphilic Polymer Co‐Networks
This perspective provides a comprehensive overview of structure–property relationships in model amphiphilic polymer co‐networks. Based on studies using rheology, swelling studies, Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP), Forced Rayleigh Scattering (FRS), and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), we discuss network mechanics, star‐polymer diffusion,
