Dynamics of Star Polymers in Fast Extensional Flow and Stress Relaxation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We confirm the observation from Ianniruberto and Marrucci [ Macromolecules 2013, 46, 267-275 ] that entangled melts of branched polystyrenes behave like linear polystyrenes in the steady state of fast extensional flow, by measuring a linear, an ...

Enhanced Electrochemiluminescence from 3D Nanocavity Electrode Arrays

open access: yesSensors and Actuators Reports, 2022
3D arrays comprising interconnected voids have been created using nanosphere lithography (2000≤diameter≤240 nm) followed by electrodeposition of gold. The top surface was blocked with 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid and then the templating polystyrenes were ...

Nanoscale dielectric properties of insulating thin films: From single point measurements to quantitative images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dielectric relaxation (DR) has shown to be a very useful technique to study dielectric materials like polymers and other glass formers, giving valuable information about the molecular dynamics of the system at different length and time scales.

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Recycled Polystyrene Waste to Triboelectric Nanogenerators: Volumetric Electromechanically Responsive Laminates from Same‐Material Contact Electrification

open access: yesAdvanced Energy & Sustainability Research
Millions of tonnes of polystyrene (PS) are produced annually, with only an estimated 12% being recycled. Herein, the upcycling of expanded or foamed PS waste into electromechanically responsive triboelectric laminates (TLs) is described.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Polystyrene grafted onto high-cis-1,4 polybutadiene backbone via 'living' radical polymerization with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-1-oxy (TEMPO) radical

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2011
A stable nitroxide radical (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-1-oxy, TEMPO) was employed to a grafting polymerization of styrene onto the high-cis-1,4 polybutadiene (PB) rubber initiated by 1,1-bis(tert-butylperoxy)cyclohexane (DP275B).
