Developed a simple esterification route to obtain lignin derivatives with tunable <italic>T</italic><sub>g</sub>'s and low <italic>E</italic>-factor reactions.
Introducing vinyl groups onto the backbone of technical lignin provides an opportunity to create highly reactive renewable polymers suitable for radical polymerization. In this work, chemical modification softwood kraft was pursued with etherification, followed by direct esterification acrylic acid (AA). first step, phenolic hydroxyl and carboxylic were derivatized into aliphatic using ethylene carbonate alkaline catalyst. The subsequently fractionated a downward precipitation method recover...
An aqueous biopolymer dispersion coating system was synthesized utilizing softwood kraft lignin and a long chain organic acid. The chemical treatment of two-step procedure, which first consisted hydroxyethylation the phenolic groups on ethylene carbonate an alkaline catalyst. This step resulted in containing more than 80% aliphatic hydroxyl functionality (1H NMR). Following this step, oleic acid reacted with hydoxyethyl order to form ester derivatives. With nearly total reduction absorbance...
Polymeric prodrugs with precisely controlled drug loading content (DLC) and rapid intracellular destabilization generally require complicated chemistry that hinders large-scale manufacture. For this purpose, we reported in study a facile construction of reduction-sensitive amphiphilic polyprodrugs an anticancer drug, 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT), hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEG) moiety as the alternating building blocks multiblock copolymer using Cu(I)-catalyzed azide–alkyne...
Polyurethane foams (PUFs) with renewable technical lignin additives have received both academic and industrial interest, justifying the need for further elucidation of their structure–property relationships. In this study, four types were mixed polyester polyols at different substitution levels (10–25% wt). After thorough characterization using NMR GPC, viscosity measurements polyol mixtures indicated a positive correlation between functional groups (COOH aliphatic OH) miscibility. The...
Dielectric polymers, particularly thermally stable synthetic types, play a crucial role in capacitors, circuit boards, insulators, and high-frequency devices. However, they also contribute significantly to electronic waste, making up approximately 20% of the 74.7 million metric tons e-waste generated each year. Unfortunately, less than 18% this waste is properly recycled, posing serious risks human health environment. To address these challenges, we present circular approach fabricating...
In this work, a lab-designed apparatus was developed to collect and record the CO
A saccharide-enabled multiscale hydrogen bonding network significantly enhances the overall performance of hydrogel materials. This versatile approach suits diverse material systems and enables stable bioelectronic interfaces.
Reversible donor–acceptor interactions were used to prepare biocleavable crosslinked polyprodrug vesicles toward enhanced anticancer drug delivery.
In this experiment, white seed pumpkin 'Shengzhen No. 1' was used as rootstock for the oriental sweet melon (Cucumis melo L.) 'Yumeiren'. The fruits of own-rooted melons were control. objective experiment to study effects grafting on following parameters: content free fatty acids and activities synthetic enzymes (LOX, ADH, AAT). These parameters measured in peel flesh tissues at different time-points. Due grafting, oleic acid linolenic decreased early stages maturity. Therefore, total...
Abstract Renewable feedstocks are sought for clean technology applications, including energy storage applications. In this study, LignoForce™ lignin, a biobased aromatic polymer commercially isolated from wood, was fractioned into two parts using acetone, and the resulting lignin fractions had distinct thermo‐rheological behavior. These fractionated lignins were combined in various ratios transformed nanofibers by electrospinning. Subsequently, electrospun fiber materials disrupted agitating...
