Engineering Phosphorus‐Modified Flame‐Retardant Thermoplastic Polyurethane via Reactive Melt Processing

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Phosphorus‐modified TPUs are prepared by one‐step, solvent‐free reactive melt processing using phosphate‐ or phosphonate‐containing diols and PEG or PPG soft segments. Fire behavior and mechanical response depend strongly on both chemistries. Peak heat release rate decreases by up to 54%, but reduced tensile strength and V‐2 dripping behavior reveal a ...

Leucaena Oil Functionalized With Osmium Tetroxide as a Precursor for Polyol‐Based Polyurethane

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Leucaena leucocephala seed oil is converted into a hydroxyl‐functional biopolyol through OsO4‐mediated dihydroxylation. The resulting biopolyol shows a hydroxyl number of 160–175 mg KOH g−1 and is successfully used to produce flexible, open‐cell polyurethane foams, highlighting a renewable route for converting underutilized biomass into value‐added ...

Highly integrated, alignment healing, and full‐recyclable multifunctional flexible devices based on dynamic covalent bonds

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
This study addresses stability, repair, and recycling in flexible devices using polymers with identical dynamic bonds but incompatible backbones. This enables robust integration, precise self‐healing, and full recyclability. We demonstrate optoelectronic sensors that, after damage, magnetically self‐assemble and heal upon heating.

In Situ Construction of Phosphorus‐Containing Crosslinked Urethane Network Combined With Ammonium Polyphosphate via Reactive Blending for Enhancing Flame Retardancy and Anti‐Dripping Performance of Polylactic Acid Composites

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
By in situ reaction blending, DOPO‐HQ and THEIC were added to PLA with MDI to construct a phosphorus containing polyurethane network, which significantly improved the flame retardant and anti‐dripping properties of polylactic acid composites. ABSTRACT Polylactic acid (PLA) is highly flammable and prone to severe melt dripping during combustion, which ...

Preparation of Hydrophilic Polysilsesquioxanes and Their Applications as Water Separation and Antifogging Coating Materials

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic substituents were introduced onto the silicon atoms of random polysilsesquioxanes (PSQs) to improve water permeability and absorptivity for exploring the applications of PSQ materials as heat‐ and chlorine‐resistant water desalination reverse osmosis (RO) membranes and scratch‐resistant antifogging coating materials.

Oxaziridines: Versatile Reagents in Modern Organic Synthesis

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Being capable of transferring an O atom and N‐group/atom, oxaziridines are considered multitasking agents. These are employed for diverse organic transformations, such as epoxidation of olefins, α‐ and γ‐hydroxylation/amination of carbonyl compounds, oxidation of sulfides, [3+2]cycloaddition with unsaturated systems.
