Curing behavior of a UV-curable coating based on urethane acrylate oligomer: the influence of reactive monomers [PDF]
A hybrid organic-organic urethane acrylate oligomer was synthesized by the reaction of polypropyleneglycol (PPG),2,4-toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) using dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) as a catalyst.The urethane acrylate ...

In Situ Synthesized Glycerol‐Releasing Nanocarriers Unlock Superlubricity in Oil‐Based Lubricants
This study presents an in situ synthesis of glycerol‐based nanocarriers in hydrophobic lubricant oils via inverse miniemulsion polymerization. Encapsulating glycerol within a glycerol‐based polyurethane shell resolves miscibility issues between glycerol and the hydrophobic base oil, yielding novel nanoadditives with tunable glycerol loading.

IL-13 is a central mediator of chemical-induced airway hyperreactivity in mice. [PDF]
While the importance of the Th2 cytokine IL-13 as a central mediator of airway hyperreactivity (AHR) has been described in allergic protein-induced asthma, this has never been investigated in chemical-induced asthma.We examined the importance of IL-13 in

Conjugated Inorganic–Organic Hybrid Polymers with p‐Block Elements
The influence of various p‐block element motifs on the photophysical properties of conjugated inorganic‐organic hybrid polymers is surveyed regarding applications in organic electronics. Recent advances in the use of heavier elements as well as heavier multiple bonds and the development of diverse (post‐)functionalization strategies suggest ample scope
