A novel semi-interpenetrating poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) based polyelectrolyte hydrogel [p(HEMA- co -METAC)/PEG] was prepared by copolymerizing HEMA with the cationic monomer 2-methacryloyloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (METAC) in the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) with different content and molecular weight (MW 4000 and 400). The chemical structure of the gels was confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy, morphology study was performed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), thermal stability was revealed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and the mechanical properties were determined by electronic universal testing machine. Swelling studies showed introduction of cationic monomer METAC led to high water content, and the obvious salt and pH sensitive properties were observed which proved the smart behavior of the semi-interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) gels. In addition, the effect of temperature and some important biological solution on swelling behavior were reported. Cytotoxicity test demonstrated that synthesized gels owned satisfactory cytocompatibility and were convenient for the application as biomaterials. Finally, the weak bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption on semi-IPNs by introducing METAC and controlling the content of PEG in gels demonstrated that they were of good protein resistance effect in biomedical applications. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Hyperbranched polyurethane (HBPU), with low-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol space segments between the branching points, was synthesized by a pseudo one-pot procedure. HBPU was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and gel permeation chromatography. The HBPU was used as a modifier of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA)/anhydride system. The rheological properties of HBPU-G3/DGEBA blends were investigated by rotational rheometer. A slight decrease in viscosity of modified blends was observed by adding low content of HBPU and there was chemical reaction between HBPU and epoxy resin even without a hardener. The mechanical and thermal properties of the HBPU-G3/DGEBA thermosets were characterized and compared with that of the neat epoxy thermosets. Their impact fracture surfaces were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, and the results indicated that no phase separation occurred in the DGEBA/anhydride system after the introduction of HBPU, which was confirmed by dynamic mechanical analysis and thermogravimetric analysis. After addition of 10 wt % HBPU, the toughness of the modified thermosets was found to be significantly improved without sacrificing their processability and thermal and mechanical properties to a large extent. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ball milling is selected to prepare composites of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) and epoxy. Much enhanced thermal conductivity was recorded with higher GNP loading, which varied between 5 and 25 wt %. A maximum thermal conductivity of 2.67 W/m·K was found. The prepared composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman. It was found that KNG180, a commercially available kind of natural graphite, with a thickness of 30 ∼ 80 nm were mainly exfoliated into GNPs (<10 layers) with high quality, which were in turn uniformly dispersed in the composites. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel flame-retardant composite was prepared by introducing a phosphorus-nitrogen flame retardant and DOPO-SiO 2 into PA6. DOPO-SiO 2 was synthesized successfully in a one-step process. PA6/OP1314/DOPO-SiO 2 achieved a UL 94 V-0 rating with an LOI value of 31%. The maximum mass loss rate of decomposition decreased significantly and char residue increased to 11.6 wt % compared with that of pure PA6. The compacted and dense char was formed due to the combination of the P-N flame retardant and DOPO-SiO 2 . The complex viscosity of PA6/OP1314/DOPO-SiO 2 increased considerably which tend to prevent the dripping phenomenon. The flame-retardant mechanism of PA6/OP1314/DOPO-SiO 2 was also investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FTIR at different temperatures and the pyrolysis products were investigated by pyrolysis gas chromatography/ mass spectrum (Py-GC/MS). It was assumed that DOPO-SiO 2 and the hypophosphite of OP1314 possess excellent flame retardancy during the gaseous phase. Meanwhile, melamine and phosphate reacted with the pyrolytic products of PA6 to protect the matrix during the condensed phase. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2016 , 133 , 42932.

A simple and environmental friendly oxoacetohydrazide functionalization method is developed to convert the straw cellulose into high performance adsorbents for effective Pb(II) removal. The adsorption experimental results demonstrated that the resultant oxoacetohydrazide-modified cellulose (OMC) possesses a dramatically improved Pb(II) adsorption capacity (82.9 mg/g), which is over six times of that for the unmodified celluloses (13.6 mg/g). The mechanistic studies confirm that the markedly enhanced Pb(II) adsorption capability of OMC can be attributed to the formation of N-Pb-N bonds resulting from the strong chelating interactions of Pb(II) with oxoacetohydrazide. Also, the OMC shows an excellent reusability, capable of retain 95% of its original Pb(II) adsorption capacity after three consecutive adsorption cycles. The findings of this work pave a way to transform the agricultural byproducts into high performance functional materials. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2016 , 133 , 42950.

Conversion of lignin derived from lignocellulosic biomass to bio-oil has the promising potential to significantly reduce petroleum dependence. For that purpose, it is necessary to search for a low-cost lignin source. In this study, lignin sample was separated from straw pulping black liquor by HCl-precipitation, followed by extraction with a mixture of dioxane and water. The content of lignin in the total black liquor solid reached up to 34.8%, determined by UV spectroscopy, and the yield could account for 74.4% of the total lignin composition. The structure of lignin was investigated by various spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR, 1 H-NMR, XRD, and XPS. The structural analysis revealed that recovered lignin preserved basic lignin structure, but had relatively lower amount of β-O-4 linkages. The molecular weights were studied through THF-eluted GPC showing that separated lignin had the low M n , which was favorable for the full degradation process during conversion of lignin to bio-oil. Therefore, a feasible solution for effective utilization of lignin in straw pulping black liquor as feedstock for bio-oil was proposed in the study. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

The long-chain functionalized graphene nanoplatelets (FGN) were functionalized by isophorone diisocyanate and then octadecylamine, the graphene functionalized/waterborne polyurethane (WPU) composites were prepared by solution mixture. The results showed that the FGN achieved good dispersion with exfoliated and intercalated nanostructure and strong interfacial adhesion with WPU, which made the nano–composites have a significant enhancement of thermal stability and mechanical properties at low FGN loadings. With 1.5% of FGN added, the tensile strength of the composites reached the maximum of 17 MPa, which improved by 41.6%, the water absorption of the composites is only 6.7%. With the incorporation of 2 wt % FGN, and the static contact angle of the composites reached to about 120°, showing the high hydrophobicity. At the same time, the volume resistivity of the composites was changed from 2.34 × 10 12 Ω·cm to 3.77 × 10 9 Ω·cm. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2015 , 132 , 42005.

In this study, epoxidized soybean oil was modified to prepare acrylated epoxidized soybean oil (AESO) and vinyl/acrylate ended soybean oil (VASO), which were blended with mercaptopropyl polyhedral oligomericsilsequioxane (POSS-SH) to prepare UV curable thiol-acrylate and thiol-ene-acrylate hybrid coatings. Photopolymerization processes of the coatings were measured and the results showed that addition of POSS-SH obviously increased the conversion of double bond. The physical and mechanical properties of all cured samples were investigated, which indicated that the pencil hardness, tensile strength, and fracture toughness were significantly improved by POSS-SH. Moreover, with increasing POSS-SH content, the water contact angles of cured samples were increased, and the water resistance was greatly improved. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

In a paper mill's water circuit, normal runnability of the paper machine is often disturbed due to the buildup of dissolved and colloidal substances (DCS). Contaminant adsorption on a solid adsorbent in a fluidized bed reactor has been applied for white water treatment. In the present study, polystyrene (PS) spheres were firstly acylated by acryloyl chloride, then poly(methacryloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride) (PMAC) was grafted onto the acylated PS spheres, induced by surface-initiated free-radical polymerization. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterize the changes of PS spheres in chemical structures and surface morphology. The results showed that acylated PS spheres could be easily grafted with PMAC in 53.83% weight increase. Polyelectrolyte loading of PS spheres reached up to 1.72 mmol/g. The resulted cationic modified PS spheres could effectively decrease the cationic demand in white water and it still maintained high performance after operating repeatedly for 10 batches. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The objectives of this study were to prepare injection-moulded wood-based plastics and to characterize their mechanical properties. Injection-moulded wood-based plastics with satisfactory flexural (65.7 MPa) and tensile strengths (30.1 MPa) were successfully obtained through a simple reaction of mulberry branch meal with phthalic anhydride (PA) in 1-methylimidazole under mild condition. The X- ray diffraction results indicated complete disruption of the crystallinity of cellulose because the pattern obtained for esterified fiber was almost a straight line without any peaks. The peaks in the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectra (1738 and 748 cm −1 ) and NMR spectra (173.3 and 133.5 ppm) indicated the attachment of 0-carboxybenzoyl groups onto the wood fibers via ester bonds. The differential scanning calorimetry curves showed that the glass transition temperature decreased with increasing weight percentage gain (WPG). The derivative thermogravimetric analysis curves indicated that esterified wood fiber was less thermally stable than the untreated fiber and that the component tends to be homogeneous with increasing WPG. Scanning electron microscope revealed that the fractured surfaces of most samples were smooth and uniform but that high temperature and less PA dosage could lead to the appearance of holes and cracks. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Novel thermally and magnetically dual-responsive mesoporous silica nanoparticles [magnetic mesoporous silica nanospheres (M-MSNs)–poly( N -isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAAm)] were developed with magnetic iron oxide (Fe 3 O 4 ) nanoparticles as the core, mesoporous silica nanoparticles as the sandwiched layer, and thermally responsive polymers (PNIPAAm) as the outer shell. M-MSN–PNIPAAm was initially used to control the release of sophoridine. The characteristics of M-MSN–PNIPAAm were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, N 2 adsorption–desorption isotherms, and vibrating specimen magnetometry analyses. The results indicate that the Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles were incorporated into the M-MSNs, and PNIPAAm was grafted onto the surface of the M-MSNs via precipitation polymerization. The obtained M-MSN–PNIPAAm possessed superparamagnetic characteristics with a high surface area (292.44 m 2 /g), large pore volume (0.246 mL/g), and large mesoporous pore size (2.18 nm). Sophoridine was used as a drug model to investigate the loading and release properties at different temperatures. The results demonstrate that the PNIPAAm layers on the surface of M-MSN–PNIPAAm effectively regulated the uptake and release of sophoridine. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Microencapsulation is an effective strategy to improve the storage stability of β - carotene. This article investigated the potential and effectiveness of soy protein isolate (SPI) and octenylsuccinic anhydride-modified starch (MS), alone or in combination (1:1, w/w), to encapsulate β - carotene by spray drying. The results indicated that the microcapsule with MS exhibited much lower encapsulation efficiency (NE) and poorer dissolution behavior, but much better redispersion behavior, than that with SPI or its blends with MS. The NE was basically unaffected by total solid content (TC) or core/wall ratio; increasing the TC impaired the dissolution and/or redispersion behavior. The dispersion behavior was closely associated with the morphology of the microcapsules. The encapsulated β - carotene suffered a progressive loss upon storage under high humid or temperature environment, but it exhibited extraordinary stability at low temperatures (e.g., 4°C). The β - carotene degradation was independent of sunlight. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131 , 40399.
