Effect of mixing protocol on the size distribution of PHA domains in the PLA matrix. ABSTRACT In this study, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐4‐hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB‐4HB), a type of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA)], were melt‐blended at an 80/20 (wt/wt) ratio, and radical initiators were employed as reactive compatibilizers to enhance

Schematic diagram of RAFT polymerization of acrylate monomers. ABSTRACT This study reports the synthesis of a macro‐RAFT agent based on poly(ɛ‐caprolactone) (PCL) via ring‐opening polymerization (ROP), which was subsequently used to prepare acrylate‐based block and block‐graft copolymers through RAFT polymerization.

Influence of crosslinker on the properties of terpene‐based poly(high internal phase emulsion)s
Myrcene was polymerized and crosslinked with hydrophilic monomeric and oligomeric dimethacrylates within high internal phase emulsions to produce hierarchically porous bio‐based poly(high internal phase emulsion)s with tuned morphology and mechanical properties.

Diverse reactivity of maleimides in polymer science and beyond
This mini‐review provides a thorough overview of maleimide chemistry, highlighting its diverse reactivity in polymer and materials science applications. Abstract Maleimides are remarkably versatile functional groups, capable of participating in homo‐ and copolymerizations, Diels–Alder and (photo)cycloadditions, Michael additions, and other reactions ...
