Preparation and Performance Evaluation of a Self‐Generated Particle Plugging Agent Based on Thermosetting Resin

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A thermosetting in situ curing resin microsphere system has been developed. It has controllable phase transition time and particle size. This system addresses the current challenges of low strength, shear susceptibility, and short phase transition time in polymer microsphere blockers and thermoplastic particle blockers.

Catalytic Pyrolysis of Waste Polystyrene Over Fe–B Composite Catalyst for Enhanced Liquid Fuel Production

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Healthcare derived polystyrene waste represents a growing and under addressed fraction of plastic waste streams due to contamination risks and limited recyclability. This study aims to investigate the valorization of waste polystyrene foam through catalytic and noncatalytic pyrolysis pathways to evaluate product yield distribution and identify

Dual Action of Dipyridamole in Experimental Rheumatoid Arthritis: Suppression of Joint Inflammation and Upregulation of Muscle Anabolism via Adenosine and AMPK Pathways

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid sarcopenia, characterized by the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, is a frequent comorbidity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), linked to prolonged, severe systemic inflammation. Purinergic signaling (adenosine, AMP, and ATP) plays a crucial role in inflammation, myogenesis, and muscle hypertrophy.

From brush conformation to 3D Supraparticles: Programmable self‐assembly of polymer‐grafted nanoparticles in emulsion confinement

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
This review highlights how the conformational adaptability of polymer‐grafted nanoparticles drives their programmable self‐assembly within 3D emulsion droplets. By coupling brush thermodynamics with soft confinement, these dynamic building blocks form hierarchical supraparticles tailored for advanced plasmonics, compartmentalized catalysis, and stimuli‐

Replacement of Coarse Aggregate with Expanded Polystyrene Beads to Achieve Lightweight Concrete

International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology
In this study, we explore how replacing traditional coarse aggregates with Expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads can enhance the properties of concrete. Lightweight concrete is valued in construction for its reduced self-weight, which eases handling and reduces load on structures, as well as for its superior thermal insulation and soundproofing qualities ...

From Material Tensions to Organizational Paradoxes: How Manufacturers Cope With the Limits of Circular Product Design

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular product design (CPD) is central to advancing the circular economy by enabling the narrowing, slowing, and closing of resource flows. Yet, its implementation remains persistently challenging for firms. Prior research has largely framed these challenges as discrete barriers, overlooking the structural contradictions embedded in CPD ...
