Influence of Graft Density on Kinetics of Surface-Initiated ATRP of Polystyrene from Montmorillonite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Here we report the kinetics of the surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene from the surface of functionalized montmorillonite clay as a function of graft density. Compared with analogous ATRP reactions with free initiator,

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 11, 3 June 2026.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Preparation and Characterization of Hyperbranched Polystyrene Nanocomposite Synthesized by Living Radical Polymerization and Solution Intercalation Method [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و تکنولوژی پلیمر, 2013
A copolymer of styrene and methyl styrene was synthesized by nitroxide - mediated “living” free radical polymerization )NMP). N-Bromosuccinimide was used as a brominating agent to obtain a copolymer with bromine as its end group.

Water-stable plasma-polymerized N,N-dimethylacrylamide coatings to control cellular adhesion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The plasma polymerization of amide-based precursors is a nearly unexplored research area, which is in contrast with the abundance of reports focusing on amide based surface modification using wet chemistry.

Origins and Development of Initiation of Free Radical Polymerization Processes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Polymer Science, 2009
At present worldwide about 45% of the manufactured plastic materials and 40% of synthetic rubber are obtained by free radical polymerization processes. The first free radically synthesized polymers were produced between 1910 and 1930 by initiation with ...

Spin-transfer mechanism of ferromagnetism in polymerized fullerenes: $Ab initio$ calculations

open access: yes, 2006
A mechanism of the high temperature ferromagnetism in polymerized fullerenes is suggested. It is assumed that some of the C$_{60}$ molecules in the crystal become magnetically active due to spin and charge transfer from the paramagnetic impurities (atoms

Structure - property relationships of new polystyrene nanocomposites prepared from initiator-containing layered double hydroxides of zinc aluminum and magnesium aluminum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Polystyrene/layered double hydroxides (PS/LDHs) nanocomposites were prepared by free radical polymerization of styrene monomer in the presence of LDHs intercalated with 4,4′-azobis(4-cyanopentanoate) anions (LDH–ACPA).

Additive Gaussian Process Regression for Predictive Design of High‐Performance, Printable Silicones

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A chemistry‐aware design framework for tuning printable polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) for vat photopolymerization (VPP) is developed using additive Gaussian process (GP) modeling. Polymer network mechanics informs variable groupings, feasible formulation constraints, and interaction variables.
