Rheological Properties of Carboxymethyl Cellulose Solutions and Gels: An Overview

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The rheology of carboxymethyl cellulose is determined by the balance between electrostatic interactions, chain entanglements and association of unsubstituted cellulose‐like domains. The degree of substitution, substitution pattern, added salt concentration and pH determine whether solutions behave as viscoelastic liquids or weak gels.

Mixing and Compounding of Graphene/High Density Polyethylene Nanocomposites Using Twin‐Screw and Octa‐Screw Extrusions: A Comparative Study

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Advanced octa‐screw extrusion offers a breakthrough in compounding high‐viscosity polymer nanocomposites. By comparing twin‐ and octa‐screw extruders, this study reveals that the octa‐screw's unique intermeshing geometry achieves superior graphene exfoliation while preventing thermal degradation.

Tailoring the Mechanical Properties of Nanocellulose/ABS Composites by Tuning the Grafting Density on Nanocellulose

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Tuning the surface grafting density of an amine‐terminated copolymer on cellulose nanofibers controls the fiber–matrix interface in melt‐compounded nanocellulose/ABS composites. Increasing grafting density builds a compliant nanoscale interphase that raises tensile toughness up to ~26‐fold while preserving stiffness and lowering thermal expansion ...

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...
