Herein, a facile method combining in-situ generation of potassium oleate (KOA) and miniemulsion photopolymerization under green LED irradiation was proposed to prepare poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) nanospheres . A miniemulsion containing methyl methacrylate (MMA) was prepared in situ, in which KOA as a surfactant was synthesized by the neutralization reaction of oleic acid (OA) and potassium hydroxide (KOH), and then miniemulsion photopolymerization occurred to obtain PMMA nanospheres under green LED irradiation. Emulsion stability test proved that the in-situ surfactant miniemulsion has higher stability than the preformed surfactant miniemulsion. The effect of surfactant amount and exposure time on photopolymerization was investigated. Furthermore, hexadecane (HD) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were introduced into the polymerization system to avoid the adverse effect of Ostwald ripening and particle agglomeration respectively, and PMMA nanospheres with uniform sizes of ∼100 nm were finally prepared.

Polymer electrolytes have attracted widespread attention owing to their low cost and excellent processability. However, polymer electrolytes have yet been widely applied in commercial batteries due to their own drawbacks, such as weak mechanical properties and lower ionic conductivity. In this paper, poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) was blended with polyethylene oxide (PEO) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) to build a novel polymer matrix, and SiO 2 @PMMA was doped into blended polymer matrix to form a composite polymer electrolyte named CPE-(SiO 2 @PMMA). The CPE-(SiO 2 @PMMA) performs superior electrochemical performance, such as a favorable electrochemical stability window (4.7 V vs Li/Li + ), decent ionic conductivity (8.54 × 10 –5 S cm −1 at 60 ℃), and excellent interface stability. The lithium metal battery LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 /CPE/Li was fabricated to build a high specific energy system, which performs excellent cycling and C-rate performance compared to others polymer electrolytes. Capacity retention of LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 /Li cell with CPE-(SiO 2 @PMMA) achieves 81.6% after 100 cycles, while CPE was broken with 100 cycles unfinished. All of the above favorable properties proved that PVDF-HFP/PMMA/PEO polymer matrix with SiO 2 @PMMA doped is a promising electrolyte candidate for flexible lithium metal batteries.

In this study, vinyltrimethoxysilane-treated hydroxyapatite (vHAP) and PMMA-grafted HAP (gHAP) were successfully prepared from original HAP (oHAP). Three kinds of HAP (oHAP, vHAP and g HAP) were used as additives for the preparation of three groups of HAP-modified PMMA bone cements (oHAP-BC, vHAP-BC and gHAP-BC). The setting, bending and compression properties of the bone cements were conducted according to ISO 5833:2002. The obtained results showed that the maximum temperature while curing the HAP-modified bone cements (HAP-BCs) decreased from 64.9 to 60.8 °C and the setting time increased from 8.1 to 14.0 min, respectively, with increasing HAP loading from 0 to 15 wt.%. The vHAP-BC and gHAP-BC groups exhibited higher mechanical properties than the required values in ISO 5833. Electron microscopy images showed that the vHAP and gHAP nanoparticles were dispersed better in the polymerized PMMA matrix than the oHAP nanoparticles. FTIR analysis indicated the polar interaction between the PO4groups of the HAP nanoparticles and the ester groups of the polymerized PMMA matrix. Thermal gravimetric analysis indicated that mixtures of ZrO2/HAPs were not able to significantly improve the thermal stability of the HAP-BCs. DSC diagrams showed that the incorporation of gHAP to PMMA bone cement with loadings lower than 10 wt.% can increase Tgby about 2.4 °C.Keywords:HAP-modified bone cement;vinyltrimethoxysilane-treated HAP;PMMA-grafted HAP;bending;ISO 5833

3D printing efficiency, as a key indicator of additive manufacturing technology, directly affects its competitiveness in rapid prototyping, small batch production, and even large-scale industrial applications. Compared with traditional manufacturing methods, the high efficiency of 3D printing is often considered a bottleneck, hindering its application across various fields. Herein, a versatile and efficient strategy is proposed, namely, the dimensional reduction printing (DRP) process, to break the obstacle of high efficiency of 3D printing. Specifically, the self-healing CDs/PMMA nanocomposites were constructed via introducing carbon dots (CDs) synthesized by microfluidics into poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) materials. Under the assistance of abundant hydrogen bonding and the entanglement of polymer chains, the fabricated CDs/PMMA nanocomposites exhibited outstanding self-healing properties, which can be utilized as ideal printing inks to achieve a highly efficient 3D printing process through assembling the printed simple 1D and 2D components into complex 3D models. We firmly believe that the DRP strategy opens up an idea for the design of a 3D printing process and points out the direction for the meaningful application of 3D printing technologies.

Dendrite growth and interfacial instability in conventional liquid electrolytes limit the practical application of lithium metal batteries (LMBs). Composite solid electrolytes (CSEs) offer a promising alternative, yet challenges remain in achieving high ionic conductivity and low interfacial resistance. In this study, a series of sponge-like porous Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 @PMMA/PVDF-HFP CSE membranes (LPPH1:x) were fabricated via phase separation-solution casting. A multistage ion transport channel was constructed through the synergistic combination of the polymer matrix, inorganic fillers, and liquid electrolytes. The incorporation of PMMA suppressed the crystallization of PVDF-HFP, while the ester groups in PMMA facilitated Li salt dissociation through coordination with Li + . LPPH1:3 exhibited optimal comprehensive performance: a high ionic conductivity of 2.75 × 10 −3 S·cm −1 at room temperature, a Li + transference number of 0.62, and an electrochemical stability window of 4.9 V. Moreover, the symmetric cell demonstrated stable cycling for over 2000 h at 0.2 mA·cm −2 . The LiFePO 4 full cell retained 96.4% capacity after 200 cycles at 0.5C. Post-cycling characterization confirmed that LPPH1:3 suppressed lithium dendrite growth and maintained a stable interfacial structure. This work provides an innovative material design strategy and theoretical foundation for developing high-performance solid-state LMBs.

Crack lithography is important for preparing microstructured materials. This strategic use of cracking breaks with the traditional idea that cracks are unwanted and has great potential for high-resolution and high-throughput production. However, the ability to control nanoscale crack patterning is still insufficient. Here, we present a nanoscale, programmable angle-dependent technique to control crack generation that relies on standard electron-beam lithography. Multiscale patterns of poly(methyl methacrylate) of arbitrary shape, geometric size, and large area were obtained, greatly expanding the processing capacity of electron-beam lithography. In addition, we observed the interaction between adjacent structures and cracks, which resulted in crack suppression or second-order cracks. We also demonstrated that angle-dependent nanoscale cracks can be used in physical unclonable functions and have great application prospects in the field of information security. We believe that our strategy for programmable nanoscale crack patterning provides new opportunities and perspectives for nanofabrication.

To achieve the whole ecological preparation and application of structurally colored textiles with photonic crystals (PCs), degradable PMMA colloidal nanospheres in a high mass fraction (30 wt%) were synthetically prepared by an emulsion polymerization method, and then PMMA liquid photonic crystals (LPCs) with a pre-crystallized form were efficiently prepared by a rotary evaporation/surfactant method. The LPCs exhibited excellent dynamic reversibility and high color saturation. By utilizing the LPCs as assembly intermediates and combining with a shear-induced assembly technique, the large-scale and rapid structural coloration of textiles was realized. Thanks to a PU polymer layer pretreated on the fabric surface, the structural stability of the PMMA photonic crystals on textile substrates was significantly improved, ensuring consistency between the structural stability and color saturation of the PMMA photonic crystals. The dialysis of the colloidal PMMA nanospheres removed the oligomers and small molecule substances, further improving the structural stability of PMMA photonic crystals.

A series of mesoporous SBA-15 with various pore diameter (8, 15, 22 and 27 nm) were synthesized and used as “microreactor”. Reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) was conducted in the channels of SBA-15 using azodiisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator, ethyl xanthate ethyl propionate as chain transfer agent. The obtained PMMA/SBA-15 composites and neat PMMAs from composites were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption and desorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance. Results showed that compared with PMMA from conventional RAFT polymerization, PMMAs obtained from internal SBA-15 featured with narrower molecule weight distribution (1.34–1.55) and higher thermal stability due to confinement effects. With the increment of pore size of SBA-15, the molecular weight and glass transition temperature (T g ) of PMMA obtained from internal SBA-15 were distinctly improved whereas isotacticity of the PMMA decreased. The properties of the PMMA were managed with controllable RAFT polymerization by regulation the pore size of SBA-15.

Monolayer Tungsten disulfide (WS2) shows unique optoelectronic properties and has potential applications in nanodevices. However, the stability of the monolayer WS2 exposed in the ambient condition should be evaluated and improved before its practical application. In this paper, we investigated the shape, structure, and luminescence of the monolayer WS2 under heating and corona discharge conditions in air. We show that monolayer WS2 without any coating film is unstable under such practical condition. To protect the monolayer, we covered a layer of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) on the surface of the monolayer WS2 and found the stability was improved.

Vinyl polymerization is an important path for in-situ polymerization of thermoplastic resins. BPO (Benzoyl peroxide) and DMT (dimethyl-p-toluidine) were chosen to initiate the radical polymerization of MMA (methyl methacrylate) in this work. Optimization of initiator concentration was studied through reaction rate of polymerization progress and properties of PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate). At first, the catalytic of DMT in MMA polymerization was studied through polymerization experiments and rheological experiments. Results showed that DMT could catalyze more than one molecular BPO in the whole reaction period. It can catalyze the decomposition of BPO after being connected to PMMA chains. Second, the BPO: DMT ratio was set to 2:1 to study the ideal content by comparing the mechanical properties of PMMA. Results showed that with the increase of initiator contents, Tg, molecular weight, and residual monomer were all declining. Meanwhile, the mechanical properties of PMMA matrix first increased and then decreased. This phenomenon was analyzed by 1H-NMR and SEM. And the optimal BPO-DMT concentration was 1.0 mol%–0.5 mol%.

Copper-based halides have emerged as promising scintillator materials for X-ray imaging, attributed to their favorable photophysical characteristics, such as negligible self-absorption, high light output, and fast decay. Within this category of materials, Cs 3 Cu 2 Cl 5 composite polymer scintillator films stand out, delivering excellent performance as flexible X-ray detector screens. However, severe scattering and light degradation induced by the inevitable agglomeration during recombination restricted the application in high-resolution and flexible X-ray imaging. In this study, a Cs 3 Cu 2 Cl 5 @PMMA film prepared by in-situ growth strategy is successfully developed, which represents uniform area, adjustable flexibility and excellent scintillation performance. The prepared large-area film exhibits green emission at 527 nm, with a high light yield, low detection limit and excellent spatial resolution. Meanwhile, the Cs 3 Cu 2 Cl 5 @PMMA film exhibits a remarkable degree of flexibility, enabling imaging applications on non-planar surfaces. Furthermore, it also demonstrates excellent resistance to high temperature environment, maintaining its high-quality imaging performance at 403 K.

Acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) is one of the most important materials utilized by fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing. In this work, we prepared a series of 3D-printable ABS-based materials with improved scratch resistance and balanced mechanical performance via a simple blending strategy. The scratch resistant performance, mechanical strength, melt flow rate, hardness, transmittance, and surface gloss of ABS were improved simultaneously by adding 30 mass portion of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). Further addition of a small amount of methacrylate–butadiene–styrene (MBS), a kind of core–shell rubber modifier with high toughening efficiency, improved the toughness of ABS/PMMA effectively and hardly influenced the scratch resistance and optical properties of ABS/PMMA. This ABS/PMMA/MBS blend has the potential for large-scaled fabrication and can be developed as a new category of thermoplastic polymer material specially used for FDM 3D printing.
