Strong Fully Reprocessable Engineered Wood Composites
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Engineering a hyperbranched adhesive with complementary imine‐bond and hydrogen‐bond networks, combining it with wood particles to fabricate the wood composite (WP/HTP) under mild hot‐pressing conditions. The WP/HTP exhibits 100% mechanical strength recovery after three cycles of reprocessing, and the reprocessed modulus of rupture (MOR) and modulus of

Biotreatment effects in films and blends of PVC/PCL previously treated with heat
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2005 Studies were carried out on biomodification and the pre-heat (130(0)C) influence on Poly (vinyl chloride) / Poly (epsilon-caprolactone) films. The results showed that heat pre-treatment improved the biomodification of PVC films, but it inhibited the ...
