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.

Leucaena Oil Functionalized With Osmium Tetroxide as a Precursor for Polyol‐Based Polyurethane

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Leucaena leucocephala seed oil is converted into a hydroxyl‐functional biopolyol through OsO4‐mediated dihydroxylation. The resulting biopolyol shows a hydroxyl number of 160–175 mg KOH g−1 and is successfully used to produce flexible, open‐cell polyurethane foams, highlighting a renewable route for converting underutilized biomass into value‐added ...

Thermosensitive Nanostructured Coacervates Developed by Mixing ABA‐ and AB‐Block Copolymers and Their Unique Sustained Release of Nano‐Micelles in a Regulated Manner

Small, EarlyView.
Polyion complex micelles composed of blends of ABA and AB block copolymers can form coacervates with a hexagonally packed cylinder nanostructure after heating. The resulting coacervates can release the micelles under physiological conditions in a zero‐order kinetics, possessing cargo proteins.

Visualizing Gradual Aging of Lateral Heterostructured MoS2‐WS2 Under Vacuum Conditions by Hyperspectral Phase Microscopy

Small, EarlyView.
This study visualizes the long‐term aging of lateral MoS2‐WS2 heterostructures stored under low‐vacuum condition using hyperspectral phase microscopy (HPM). While conventional techniques show limited sensitivity to ultrathin and amorphous oxidation products, HPM successfully reveals morphological and optical changes during aging. Optical modeling using
