Development of a Sliding Plate Rheometer to Measure the High Frequency Viscoelastic Properties of Polymer Melts

open access: yesApplied Rheology, 2007
A newly designed and constructed sliding plate rheometer is used to measure the high frequency (210 Hz) linear viscoelastic properties of two model polymers: polybutene (PB) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS).

Hydrophilic Janus Micelles From an ABC Triblock Copolymer

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 14, 27 March 2026.
An amphiphilic triblock copolymer with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(N‐vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) coronas self‐assembles into spherical micelles with Janus‐type surface segregation in water. Cryo‐TEM, enabled by selective PVP labeling, and 1H‐NOESY NMR reveal phase separation.

Robust and Reversible Thermofluorescence in Solvent‐Free Thermoplastic Polyurethane Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Thermofluorescent polymer composites with high‐contrast optical outputs are prepared by solvent‐free blending of indenoquinacridone dye into a thermoplastic polyurethane matrix. The temperature‐dependent fluorescence originates from aggregation–dissociation of the dye molecules, regulated by competing hydrogen bonds from the polymer matrix.
