High‐strength composites by thiocracking of high‐polypropylene‐content mixed waste
Polymer International, EarlyView.Mixed plastic waste made up of polystyrene and polypropylene was reacted with elemental sulfur to give high‐strength composites. Abstract Mixed‐material municipal waste poses a persistent end‐of‐life management challenge because the heterogeneous composition limits efficient separation and recycling. After disposal, mixed‐material waste often fragments

Iron(III) ion reinforced P(NiPAAm‐co‐AA) beads as tunable smart organogels
Polymer International, EarlyView.Macroporous beads of PNiPAAm‐co‐AA copolymers were further crosslinked by iron(III) ions. The resulting beads are mechanically robust and reversibly responsive to a change of solvent from ethanol to ethyl acetate with half‐lives in the range of minutes.

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.A comparative large‐amplitude oscillatory shear analysis reveals how cationic surfactants progressively weaken xanthan gum networks. While conventional rheology identifies network softening, advanced LAOS methods uncover nonlinear deformation mechanisms and transient structural evolution that remain hidden in cycle‐averaged measurements.

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The increasing use of wood and wood‐based composites in construction reflects a global shift toward renewable materials that support sustainable development objectives, including carbon reduction and responsible resource use. While wood offers substantial environmental benefits compared to conventional materials such as concrete and steel, its
