Designing PolyHIPE/CNC Nanocomposites for Application of Environmental Adsorption Processes

Journal of Polymers and the Environment, 2022
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are attracting specific interest in polymer nanocomposite preparation due to their contribution on physical and thermal properties, biocompatibility, and being a renewable feedstock. Surface modified CNCs have also remarkable potential in Pickering-emulsion preparation besides to developing of efficient adsorbent materials.

Atrazine removal by covalent bonding to piperazine functionalized PolyHIPEs

Science of The Total Environment, 2007
The removal of atrazine from water by a solid phase extraction technique using insoluble polymers is described. Porous crosslinked polymers bearing piperazine moieties were prepared in a one step reaction from the precursor 4-nitrophenylacrylate incorporating polymers (PolyHIPE type prepared by the polymerization of the continuous phase of a high ...

Nano/Micro‐Engineered Hydrogel Carriers for Sustainable Agriculture: Bridging Structural Form to Field Performance

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydrogels are 3D polymeric networks that can absorb and retain significant amounts of water and exhibit physical properties such as swelling and contraction in response to changes in the external environment. Owing to these unique physicochemical properties, hydrogels have attracted interest as effective solutions to key challenges in modern ...

Designing Thermally Compatible Template‐Coating Pairs Toward Dimensionally Stable 3D Porous Carbons with Tunable Density

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 16, 23 February 2026.
3D porous carbons with tunable density are crucial for energy storage, separations, and load‐bearing applications; however, their fabrication is often constrained by shrinkage during pyrolysis. This study optimizes and demonstrates the versatility of a template–coating pair strategy, producing materials that largely retain their shape and hierarchical ...

Tetradecanoic acid‐based polydicyclopentadiene foam supported composite phase change materials: preparation and characterization

Polymer International, Volume 74, Issue 9, Page 839-847, September 2025.
Polydicylopentadiene (polyDCPD) supported composite phase change materials were prepared by solvent‐assisted impregnation method, using tetradecanoic acid. Supporting foams were obtained via the polymerization of DCPD‐based high internal phase emulsions.
