Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Multiple plasma surface treatments improved the Mode I fracture energy of metal‐carbon‐fiber‐reinforced thermoplastic polymer (CFRTP) joints by ≈240% compared to single treatments and nearly 2000% over untreated joints. This significant enhancement, achieved without modifying CFRTP surface roughness, is attributed to improved chemical bonding at the ...

Biomimetic wet-stable fibres via wet spinning and diacid-based crosslinking of collagen triple helices [PDF]
, 2015 One of the limitations of electrospun collagen as bone-like fibrous structure is the potential collagen triple helix denaturation in the fibre state and the corresponding inadequate wet stability even after crosslinking. Here, we have demonstrated the feasibility of accomplishing wet-stable fibres by wet spinning and diacid-based crosslinking of ...

Synthesis and Improved Cross-Linking Properties of C5-Modified Furan Bearing PNAs
Molecules, 2017 Over the past decades, peptide nucleic acid/DNA (PNA:DNA) duplex stability has been improved via backbone modification, often achieved via introducing an amino acid side chain at the α- or γ-position in the PNA sequence.

Chemistry – A European Journal, 2017 AbstractCrosslinking is an essential architecture for polymers to improve mechanical and thermal properties and to form three‐dimensional (3D) structures. Although conventional synthetic crosslinkers usually only serve as bridges between different polymeric chains, biological crosslinkers are multifunctional.
