The need for high-performance bioplastics brings new challenges to the design and preparation of next-generation sustainable bioplastics. With emergence a number biobased monomers with similar chemical structure in recent years, it is necessary conduct systematic in-depth study on effects different isomers final material properties. Considering potential barrier bacteriostatic properties emerging thiophene-based polyesters, this work systematically investigated thiophenedicarboxylic acids...

High molecular weight fully biobased poly(propylene succinate-co-2,5-thiophenedicarboxylate) (PPSTF) random copolyesters based on the emerging aromatic diacid, 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid (TFDCA), in full composition range were synthesized via melt polycondensation. Their crystallization behavior, thermal-mechanical, gas barrier, and biodegradable properties systematically investigated. A certain level of comonomer cocrystallization was evidenced by XRD, PTF units had stronger competitive...

Cyanogen chloride (CNCl) is a toxic chemical that poses significant risks to human health and the environment; therefore, its level must be accurately monitored. Herein, adsorption of CNCl by transition metal-doped fluorinated diamanes (F-diamanes) has been extensively studied via first-principles calculations. Key parameters such as energies, charge transfer amounts, bandgaps, sensitivity, densities states, projected density differences, recovery time were systematically analyzed. Results...

Abstract Thermal runaway remains a persisting challenge that poses significant risk to lithium‐ion battery (LIB) users. In commercial LIBs, thermal is typically controlled using temperature‐responsive trilayer polypropylene/polyethylene/polypropylene (PP/PE/PP) separators. However, because of shrinkage at ≈160 °C, these separators often fail prevent in practical LIBs. Electrolyte engineering is, therefore, crucial mitigate the this context, Diels‐Alder click chemistry being introduced tackle...

With regard to polyesters based on biobased 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), our work presents a new strategy, heteroatom substitution, adjust the thermal and gas barrier properties. The effects of nonhydroxyl oxygen heteroatoms in diols properties FDCA-based were first investigated by combination an experiment molecular simulation. results demonstrated that introduction significantly influenced As for two model polymers with very similar skeleton structure, poly(pentylene...

Abstract Based on the fact that flexibility of polymer backbone will affect ion transport and sometimes enhance ionic conductivity, copolymer electrolytes 1,2,4,5‐benzene‐tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PMDA), 4‐aminophenyl ether (ODA), aminopropyldimethyl‐terminated polydimethylsiloxane (PSX), with or without doping lithium triflate, have been prepared investigated by infrared spectroscopy electrical conductivity measurements. The PSX was found to be incorporated into PMDA‐ODA polyimide form...
