Abstract Lignin is a biomass material that attracts more and attention because of its extremely low utilization rate. In this paper, we have fabricated lignin‐based flame retardant chemically grafted with PEI followed polyphosphoric acid by mild two‐step method. It found the nitrogen/phosphorus modified lignin exhibited lower char forming temperature enhanced thermal stability. After adding 7 wt% functionalized lignin, maximum decomposition epoxy resin (EP) composite was reduced from 387°C...
Achieving rapid shedding of droplets from solid surfaces has received substantial attention because its diverse applications. Previous studies have focused on minimizing contact times liquid interacting with stationary surfaces, yet little consideration been given to that moving surfaces. Here, we report a different scenario: A water droplet rapidly detaches micro/nanotextured rotating in an intriguing doughnut shape, contributing about 40% time reduction compared The doughnut-shaped...
