A Strategic Approach to Improving Interfacial Interactions in TPU/POSS Composites via Ball Milling of POSS

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Ball‐milling promotes uniform POSS dispersion in the TPU matrix, markedly improving the mechanical performance of TPU‐POSS composites. ABSTRACT We synthesized TPU/POSS composites through a two‐step process involving the ball milling of POSS to reduce its particle size, followed by in situ polymerization of TPU to reinforce the material.

Light Meets Nature: Cellulose Cluster as a Natural Photoantimicrobial Agent

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Cellulose derivatives exhibit cluster‐triggered emission, generating singlet oxygen through long‐lived excitonic states without conventional chromophores. This work reveals strong photoantimicrobial activity against Gram‐positive bacteria, transforming cellulose from an inactive excipient into an effective photodynamic agent.

Rheological Characteristics of Hyperbranched Polyesters

open access: yes
When the effects of physical aging below Tg are erased, the rheological response of a series of aliphatic hyperbranched polyesters is Newtonian and the melt viscosity scales roughly linearly with Mw at high Mw, indicating entanglement to be absent.
