In recent years, increasing environmental awareness and human skin protection from harmful radiation of the sun has attracted attention amongst numerous researchers. Here, a simple strategy was developed to enhance the hydrophilicity and ultraviolet (UV) protection of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) knitted fabric surface via grafting green cowpea protein (CP) with gum arabic modified epoxy (GAE) as a cross-linking agent. Chemical grafting between pretreated PET and GAE as well as between GAE and CP improved the hydrophilicity and UV protection of PET knitted Fabric. The enhanced surface wettability was confirmed by the decreased water contact angle from 135° to zero °. Moreover, the UV protection factor rating of modified PET knitted fabric was higher, indicating that the modifier layer caused scattering and absorbance of UV light. This approach has shown promising results for improving hydrophilicity and UV protection with sustained mechanical durability of 7 washing cycles.

The fabrication of flexible electronics has gained extensive attention due to the growing demand of flexible devices. Among various methods, laser direct writing technology has emerged as a promising approach due to its advantages of high processing accuracy and simplicity. This research focuses on the preparation of copper microelectrodes using laser-induced reduction of CuO nanoparticles (Cu NPs) on polyethylene terephthalate films. First, the influence of various parameters on the conductivity of the copper microelectrodes is investigated. Second, flexible copper microelectrodes with a minimum resistivity of 62.29 μΩ cm and an adhesion grade of 4B level are successfully fabricated. Building upon these results, a capacitive pressure sensor is developed with optimal sensitivity of 3.99 Pa −1 , good hysteresis of 3.99%, and response and recovery times of 1.2 and 1.3 s, respectively. Repeatability tests confirm the sensor's stability and fatigue resistance. This research provides valuable insights for the production of flexible sensors.

Growing of ZnO nanoparticles on PET films without crystal seeding has been achieved by employing polydopamine as the anchor. The PDA layer was formed on the surface of PET film by the polymerization of dopamine. The PDA-PET was dipped into zinc precursors for hydrothermal growth of ZnO nanoparticles. Cluster-like ZnO nanoparticles were obtained and the special structure was affected by the growing time and zinc ion concentration. The surface morphology, structure and properties were characterized, and the functions including antimicrobial activity and UV protection of the ZnO-coated PET film were investigated. The developed facile hydrothermal approach without seeding will benefit the development of UV resistant and antimicrobial PET films.

The kinetic of non-isothermal crystallization of Poly (ethylene terephthalate-co-sodium-5-sulfo- iso -phthalate) (PETI) was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Various macrokinetic models namely the Avrami, Tobin, Ozawa, and Ziabicki were used to describe the non-isothermal crystallization process of PETI. Both of the Avrami crystallization rate constant and the Tobin crystallization rate constant were observed to increase with increasing cooling rate. The Avrami model is better than the Tobin model to describe the non-isothermal crystallization process of PETI. The Ozawa crystallization rate K O was found to decrease with increasing cooling rate, while Ziabicki’s kinetic crystallizability parameter G Z was found to increase with increasing cooling rate. The effective energy barrier △E for non-isothermal crystallization process of PETI, analyzed based on the differential iso-conversional method of Friedman, was found to be an increasing function of the relative crystallinity.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) generally suffers from low crystallization rate and long molding duration, which as a result limit its application as engineering plastics. To overcome these drawbacks, series of PET/layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites were prepared by a solution blending process. The effect of metal composition (MgAl and CaAl) and organo-modification (stearic acid intercalated) for LDH fillers on the crystallization behavior of the nanocomposites was investigated. It was revealed that, compared with PET/CaAl-LDH, the PET/MgAl-LDH nanocomposite exhibits a higher crystallization temperature and faster crystallization rate, which is associated with the superior nucleation ability of MgAl-LDH. The nucleation mechanism of PET induced by LDHs was explored by means of Avrami equation and theory of Hoffman-Lauritzen, pointing out that the incorporation of LDHs reduce the free energy of nucleation and the fold surface free energy of PET. In order to improve the compatibility between LDH and PET, stearic acid (SA) intercalated MgAl-LDH was prepared and filled into PET matrix. The resultant PET/MgAl-LDH-SA shows a further enhanced crystallization temperature and accelerated crystallization rate, in comparison with PET/MgAl-LDH nanocomposites. In addition, the thermal stability, gas barrier and mechanical properties of PET/LDH composites were improved upon incorporation of LDH fillers.
