Devulcanization of Waste Tire Rubber Using Amine Based Solvents and Ultrasonic Energy

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
This research project focuses on an alternative pathway of devulcanizing waste tire rubber by using amine based chemicals. Waste tire rubbers are known to be as toxic, non-degradable material due to their vulcanized crosslink carbon structure, and ...

Liquid Jetting‐Based Miniature Robotic Navigation in Confined Fluidic Spaces

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
We introduce a new class of liquid‐jetting‐based miniature robots (JetBots) ranging in size from mm‐to‐cm, featuring a unified approach in design, fabrication, and actuation. They demonstrate fast locomotion (30.3 cm/s), rapid steering (648.8°/s), and diverse functions, such as puncturing soft materials and unlimited cargo sampling and delivery, paving

Eco‐Friendly Aqueous Polymeric Binders for High‐Performance Graphite Anodes: Structure–Property Insights for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) is commonly used as a binder material in the preparation of anode or cathode electrode slurries for commercial Li‐ion batteries (LIBs). High‐cost PVdF binder generally requires the use of toxic and environmentally unfriendly N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (NMP) as a solvent for dissolution.

Evaluation of the Efficiency of a Biobased Reactive Plasticizer on the Morphology and Properties of Sustainable Flexible Films Based on Poly(Lactic Acid) (PLA) Produced by Blown Film Extrusion

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
A comparative investigation of two epoxy additives derived from cardanol (NC513 and NC514s) for production of films based on poly (lactic acid) (PLA), acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), and poly (butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) clarified their distinct roles, with NC513 mainly acting as a plasticizer, reducing viscosity and enhancing ductility ...

Characterizing Heterogeneity in Post‐Consumer Rigid PP Packaging Waste: Implications for Object and Property‐Based Flake Sorting

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Commercial PP packaging grades span wide ranges in melt flow rate and stiffness, defining distinct application‐specific property spaces. Post‐consumer rigid PP products populate these spaces heterogeneously, with processing method and degradation shifting properties beyond virgin grade benchmarks.

Glyoxylic‐Acetal‐Based Gel‐Polymer Electrolytes for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2025.
A safe electrolyte based on tetraethoxyglyoxal (LE) is combined with a methacrylate polymer matrix. The resulting gel‐polymer electrolyte (GPE) exhibits an increased flash point, suitable ionic conductivity, and a stable performance in lithium‐ion battery cells.

High‐performance tetrahedral palladium nanocatalyst for microwave‐assisted organic synthesis

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Tetrahedral palladium nanoparticles anchored on graphene sheets (T‐Pd/graphene) were synthesized through a solvent‐free process involving thermal decomposition in an environment rich in carbon monoxide at elevated temperatures and have high catalytic activity for organic chemistry reactions. Abstract Palladium is widely recognized for its effectiveness
