Development of Flame Retarded Battery Casings Using Glass Fiber‐Reinforced Epoxy Resin
Development of flame retarded battery casings using glass fiber‐reinforced epoxy resin by exploiting the synergistic action of APP and TiO2 to promote the formation of a coherent ceramic‐phosphate char layer. ABSTRACT This study investigates the development of glass fiber‐reinforced epoxy resin composites with enhanced fire performance for application ...

Sublethal herbicide exposure alters cotton susceptibility to aphid infestation
Sublethal herbicide exposure altered cotton susceptibility to aphids. Aphid severity was highest when applications occurred at early vegetative stages and declined as the crop matured. In glasshouse, herbicide effects were dose‐dependent. Abstract BACKGROUND Herbicides remain vital tools for weed control, yet their effects can extend beyond weeds to ...

The Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 strain GR15‐1R shows partial resistance to neonicotinoids (bottom), which correlates with an increased expression of the P450 gene CYP6CM1 compared to the insecticide‐susceptible strain SU07‐1 (top). Abstract BACKGROUND Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 is a highly invasive and polyphagous pest species of agricultural and horticultural ...

Negative Chemotaxis of Urease‐Functionalized Polymeric Microcapsules
Urease‐functionalized PLGA microcapsules exhibit negative chemotaxis in urea gradients, migrating from high to low substrate concentrations. Increasing gradients enhance chemotaxis until a plateau, while increasing average substrate concentration in a fixed gradient reverses chemotactic behavior.

Fire Testing and Hazard Assessment for Flame Retardant Polymer Composites
Flame retardant polymer composites are now being evaluated with more than pass or fail flammability tests. Heat release, smoke, toxicity, and system‐level behavior are receiving more attention, and multi‐scale methods are being used to describe fire hazard under more realistic conditions.

By in situ reaction blending, DOPO‐HQ and THEIC were added to PLA with MDI to construct a phosphorus containing polyurethane network, which significantly improved the flame retardant and anti‐dripping properties of polylactic acid composites. ABSTRACT Polylactic acid (PLA) is highly flammable and prone to severe melt dripping during combustion, which ...
