Hydroxyl‐Terminated Polybutadiene‐Based Molding Powders as an Alternative Route for Manufacturing Pressed Polymer‐Bonded Explosives

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
This study presents an alternative method to manufacture polymer‐bonded explosives by partially curing an HTPB‐based molding powder prior to compaction. The study shows that the length of partial cure time before compaction directly influenced the geometric fidelity, homogeneity, compressive strength, density, and internal microstructure.

Impact of Stabilizing Osmolytes on the Conformational Dynamics of Human and Rat Islet Amyloid Polypeptides

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aggregation of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) into cytotoxic oligomers and amyloid fibrils is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), leading to pancreatic β‐cell dysfunction. In contrast, rat IAPP (rIAPP) is largely non‐amyloidogenic. Osmolytes such as glucose, glycerol, and sorbitol are known to stabilize globular protein
