Rheological and thermal degradation properties of hyperbranched polyisoprene prepared by anionic polymerization [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
Hyperbranched polyisoprene was prepared by anionic copolymerization under high vacuum condition. Size exclusion chromatography was used to characterize the molecular weight and branching nature of these polymers.

Dynamic mechanical properties of oral mucosa: comparison with polymeric soft denture liners. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The purpose of this work was to characterize the viscoelastic behaviour of oral mucosa and compare it with the dynamic mechanical properties of different soft liners. For this purpose, a sample of pig oral mucosa and six commercialized soft liner samples

Liquid 3,4-polyisoprene: A novel processing aid to achieve tire tread SBR composites with high wet grip and low energy consumption

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2022
Processing oils are indispensable in the rubber industry. Conventional oils just physically exist in compounds and migrate out of samples over time, which deteriorates the properties of materials and pollutes the environment.

One-pot synthesis of block-copolyrotaxanes through controlled rotaxa-polymerization

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2017
The aqueous reversible addition fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) copolymerization of isoprene and bulky comonomers, an acrylate and an acrylamide in the presence of methylated β-cyclodextrin was employed for the first time to synthesize block ...

Long time stress relaxation of amorphous networks under uniaxial tension: The Dynamic Constrained Junction Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Poly-isoprene networks with different degrees of cross-linking and filler amount are studied under uniaxial stress relaxation. Time decay of stress obeys a stretched exponential form with a stretching parameter of 0.4 that is same for all independent ...

Structure–function studies of ultrahigh molecular weight isoprenes provide key insights into their biosynthesis

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Kajiura and Yoshizawa et al. identify three new prenyltransferases in the tree Eucommia ulmoides that synthesize exceptionally high molecular weight trans-1,4-polyisoprene (TPI).

Synthesis and properties of composites of starch and chemically modified natural rubber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
A means is developed for forming polysaccharide-based composites with useful material properties through use of unmodified and chemically modified natural rubber latex (NRL). Starch was used as a model for polysaccharides.

New aspects of microbial vitamin K2 production by expanding the product spectrum

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2021
Vitamin K2 (menaquinone, MK) is an essential lipid-soluble vitamin with critical roles in blood coagulation and bone metabolism. Chemically, the term vitamin K2 encompasses a group of small molecules that contain a common naphthoquinone head group and a ...
