Synthesis of Polyols for Expanded Rigid Polyurethanes by Microwave Liquefaction of Kraft Lignin With Bio‐Based Solvents

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study produced bio‐based polyols from lignin using microwave liquefaction with bio‐derived solvents. The process was optimized by adjusting solvent composition and catalyst type to obtain high yields and a suitable hydroxyl number. Foams made from lignin‐based polyols showed comparable properties to commercial products.

A Facile Catalytic Route for the Preparation of Poly(methyl acrylate)/Clay Nanocomposites

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 8, August 2026.
Poly(methyl acrylate) was synthesized via ATRP and subsequently utilized for the preparation of polymer/clay nanocomposites through an organocatalytic transesterification strategy. The catalytic approach enabled effective interaction between PMA chains and montmorillonite layers under mild conditions.

Liquid Crystal Elastomers Filaments for Adaptive Textiles and Soft Robotics: A Processing‐Centric Review

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 15, 4 August 2026.
Liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) filaments are fabricated through extrusion with in‐process UV curing, enabling controlled flow alignment and network locking of mesogens. The resulting structure responds to thermal or optical stimuli, inducing molecular reorientation and macroscopic contraction.

Towards Bio‐Based Benzoxazines (2015–2025): A Critical Review of Renewable Building Blocks, Formaldehyde‐Free Aldehydes, and ECHA Hazard Landscape

open access: yesPolymers for Advanced Technologies, Volume 37, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This review provides a critical overview of research on fully bio‐based benzoxazines over the period 2015–2025. A bibliometric analysis based on the Web of Science database is used to map how the field has evolved and to identify the renewable building blocks that have been most widely adopted.

Fluorogenic Coupled Assays Reveal Catalytic Properties, Inhibition Constants and Cellular Location of Mucin‐Active Carbohydrate Sulfatases

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 30, 20 July 2026.
We report plate‐based coupled assays to rapidly and quantitatively determine the activity and selectivity of mucin‐active carbohydrate sulfatases. This fluorogenic assay further enables inhibitor identification and allows determination of (sub‐)cellular location. ABSTRACT Sulfated glycans play a central role in human health and influence cell signaling,

Curing Behavior and Structure Reactivity‐Property Relationships in Epoxidized Linseed Oil Thermosets Crosslinked With Biobased Eutectic Hardeners

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 15, Page 3275-3288, 1 August 2026.
The curing of epoxidized linseed oil with citric, tartaric, and malic acid–based eutectic hardeners is compared to reveal how acid functionality, hydroxyl content, and molecular geometry govern activation energy, reaction rates, and network rigidity.
