Biodegradability and tissue reaction of random copolymers of L-leucine, L-aspartic acid, and L-aspartic acid esters [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
A series of copoly(α-amino acids) with varying percentages of hydrophilic (l-aspartic acid) and hydrophobic monomers (l-leucine, ß-methyl-l-aspartate, and ß-benzyl-l-aspartate) were implanted subcutaneously in rats and the macroscopic degradation ...

How to Make Cellulose Hate Water – “Change it, cover it, confuse it, or accept it as it is”

open access: yesBioResources, 2023
In many of its current and potential applications, technologists treat the surface of cellulose to render it more hydrophobic.  By use of a variety of hydrophobic sizing treatment strategies, the bulk cellulose phase becomes covered up with a layer ...

Designing Ionic Conductive Elastomers Using Hydrophobic Networks and Hydrophilic Salt Hydrates with Improved Stability in Air

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, 2023
Existing soft ionic conductors fall into two distinct categories: liquid‐rich ionic conductors containing large amounts of liquid electrolytes (≈70–90 wt.% water for hydrogels and ≈20–80 wt.% ionic liquids for ionogels), and liquid‐free ionic conductors ...

Self-organization of hydrophobic soil and granular surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Soil can become extremely water repellent following forest fires or oil spillages, thus preventing penetration of water and increasing runoff and soil erosion. Here the authors show that evaporation of a droplet from the surface of a hydrophobic granular
