High‐Shear Mixing of Softwood Kraft Lignin in Aqueous Sodium Lignosulfonate: Stable Suspensions, Efficient Emulsification and Controlled Curing of Epoxy Adhesives

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 8, August 2026.
Blending sodium lignosulfonate with softwood kraft lignin generates stable, high‐consistency aqueous suspensions. The lignosulfonate efficiently coats and disperses the kraft lignin particles, producing a thick, extrudable paste. This fully bio‐based, solvent‐free approach demonstrates great potential as a sustainable wood adhesive, paving the way for ...

Textured Piezoelectric Ceramics Printed With Baffled Nozzles

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 8, August 2026.
To better align platelet particles in additively manufactured textured ceramics, baffled nozzles were simulated and tested. The simulation included a novel CFD heuristic that considers the entire print path. Printed parts were characterized via microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, and electromechanically and results were compared to the simulation, finding ...

Development of Cost‐Effective and Highly Transparent Melamine Formaldehyde Resin Modified With Sodium Chloride for Enhancing Glossiness and Abrasion Resistance of Melamine Impregnated Paper

Polymer Engineering &Science, Volume 66, Issue 7, Page 4829-4840, July 2026.
An eco‐friendly melamine‐formaldehyde was produced by the addition of sodium chloride as a modifier. Modified MF resin improved surface gloss and abrasion resistance of decorative paper and decreased the formaldehyde emission. Curing time of the MF resin decreased with the addition of sodium chloride.
