Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Covalent linkage of a highly crystalline PHBV with a ductile P3HB4HB is shown to produce block copolymers with markedly enhanced extensibility and toughness, outperforming equivalent blends. The results demonstrate that polymer architecture, not composition alone, governs mechanical response, offering a route to biodegradable materials that combine ...

Counterion Effects in Decatungstate Photocatalysis
European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.Decatungstate photocatalysis is often discussed from an anion‐centered perspective, treating the counterion as a passive charge‐balancing species. This review highlights that counterion identity can instead profoundly influence catalyst solubility, ion pairing, aggregation, stability, substrate accessibility, and catalytic performance.

Unsaturated biobased polyesters from bicyclic α‐pinene‐based diols
Polymer International, EarlyView.We present the synthesis of four biosourced unsaturated polyesters made from chiral terpene‐based diols and esters of renewable diacids. The resulting materials harbor a bicyclic pinene ring in their backbones which leads to enhanced thermal properties while still conferring susceptibility to enzyme hydrolysis for chains having a cis alkene.

Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 1991 The antimicrobial properties of three glycols, - propylene glycol, hexylene glycol, and 1,3-butylene glycol - against Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus pyogenes A, Streptococcus mitis, and E. coli were studied in vitro. Within 20 h, 10% and 30% hexylene glycol in fresh tryptic soy broth were able to kill

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1306-1318, 15 March 2025.ABSTRACT N‐vinylamides, especially noncyclic N‐vinylacetamide (NVA), have been used in various applications such as biomaterials, surfactants, and hydrogels. However, their potential to copolymerize with cyclic ketene acetal (CKA) to create degradable polymers is underexplored.
