The development of highly effective bio-lubricant coatings for arthritis treatment is extremely demanded. Herein, inspired by the efficient lubrication of articular cartilage, acrylic acid (AA) with (3-(methacryloylamino) propyl) dimethyl (3-sulfopropyl) ammonium hydroxide (MPDSAH) hydrogel coatings containing nanoparticles on Ti6Al4V substrate were designed and fabricated via UV grafting technology. SiO 2 and SiO 2 grafted with PAA polymer brushes (SiO 2 -g-PAA) were separately doped into the PAA-PMPDSAH hydrogel. The PAA-PMPDSAH/SiO 2 -g-PAA exhibits good tensile and compressive properties compared with PAA-PMPDSAH/SiO 2 hydrogel, with an enhancement of 183.4% in tensile modulus and 60.8% in compressive modulus. The PAA-PMPDSAH/SiO 2 -g-PAA hydrogel coatings exhibit a low wear volume, 2.9 ± 0.16 × 10 6 μm 3 , representing a decline of 32.1% and 61.3% compared with the PAA-PMPDSAH and PAA-PMPDSAH/SiO 2 hydrogel coatings, respectively. The antiwear performance has obviously improved. The hydrophilic PAA polymer brushes prevent the agglomeration of nanoparticles and promote homogeneously dispersion within the hydrogel. The three-dimensional crosslinked network structure of hydrogel effectively protects the structural integrity of the polymer brushes, thereby facilitating enduring lubrication properties. This work provides a strategy for promising artificial joint lubrication in biomedical fields.

Designing multifunctional composites with high flame retardancy and excellent electromagnetic shielding performance is of significant importance. In order to address the poor flame retardant and electromagnetic shielding performances of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) composites, in this work, the γ-propyl-trimethoxysilane (KH550) functionalized silicon microencapsulated ammonium polyphosphate (SiAPP-NH 2 ) was synthesized using interface modulation technology. Then, SiAPP-NH 2 was combined with a copper metal–organic framework (MOF-Cu) through microencapsulation and electrostatic self-assembly techniques to prepare microencapsulated flame retardants (SiAPP-NH 2 @MOF-Cu). Subsequently, TPU composites were prepared through melt blending of SiAPP-NH 2 @MOF-Cu with TPU material. The results showed that the interface interaction between SiAPP-NH 2 @MOF-Cu and the TPU matrix was significantly enhanced. Compared to pure TPU, TPU/5SAN@1MC composite exhibited decreases of 78.7%, 51.3%, 59.3%, and 58.7% in peak heat release rate, total heat release, total smoke release, and total carbon dioxide release, respectively. In addition, TPU/1SAN@1MC/rGO composite achieved an average shielding effectiveness of 13.82 dB in the X-band, enabling its broad commercial application. This study offers a promising strategy for the fabrication of TPU composites with good flame retardant and electromagnetic shielding properties.

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based precursor fibers with different mechanical properties prepared by wet-spinning and its correlation with microstructure was researched, the primary structural factors that affecting its properties were analyzed. The tensile strength and modulus of precursor fibers increased from 4.63 cN/dtex to 9.16 cN/dtex and 99.09 cN/dtex to 168.92 cN/dtex, respectively, with the increase in crystallinity from 69.29% to 87.84% and orientation degree increased from 83.95% to 93.81%, high performance precursor fibers could be achieved by decrease in the crystallite size and interlayer spacing, these aggregation structure plays a decisive role to the mechanical properties of fibers. The integrality of aggregation structure and properties could reflected by boiling water shrinkage behavior and glass transition temperature from the side. The fracture morphology of fibers with different properties were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and three fracture characteristics were observed, PF1 and PF3 presented the radial extended fracture without microfibril pull out, radial cluster fracture with the pull out of microfibril for PF2, PF4–PF6, together with the axial splitting pattern in PF6, which was revealed by microfibrils/fibrils in longitudinal and transverse combined with solution etching. Precursor fibers with less voids, without serious skin-core, continuous arrangement, tightly stacked, well-developed and complete oriented microfibrils/fibrils, exhibited excellent mechanical properties. Possible fracture process was given from the perspective of aggregation structure and microfibrils/fibrils, which become dominant factors determining properties of precursor fibers. Improve the performance could be achieved by regulating surface structure and cross-sectional shape. As one of the main structural factors that determining properties, by reducing diameter could minimize the numbers and sizes of defects.

Silicone rubber-based materials are important thermal protection materials for high-temperature applications. In this work, a holistic analysis of silicone rubber-based materials was conducted with an aim to comparatively study the ablative performance of different rubber matrices using the oxyacetylene flame. Six types of silicone rubber-based composites were prepared in large quantities using a customized device, and the relationship between the ablative properties and influencing factors was elucidated, which was useful in guiding the design and preparation of flexible ablative materials for thermal protection purpose. The expansion and ceramicization of char layer, which was realized by introducing expandable graphite and alumina was found helpful in reducing line ablation rate. The increase in the thickness of char layer and the decrease in surface roughness indicated a successful implementation of the above strategy, which led to a significant decrease in line ablation rate and an increase in thermal insulation performance of the studied system. Moreover, a thermal ablative composite with excellent moldability after ablation process was prepared which showed a promising application as a reusable thermal protection material. This work provided guidelines for developing flexible thermal ablative composites, which can be targeted for practical applications in aerospace and fire protection sectors.

Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), as a toxic gas, is one of the occupational hazards to workers' health. Traditional H 2 S sensors often suffer from external circuits, measurement systems, liquid-phase reactions, or high detection limits. Herein, a colorimetric sensor for H 2 S detection was developed by incorporating colorimetric dye [lead acetate, Pb(OAc) 2 ] into polyacrylamide (PAM)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel. Benefitting from the interpenetrating polymer network, non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonds and dense internal structure, the hydrogel exhibited excellent adhesion to different substances (adhesion strength up to 14.11 kPa) and mechanical properties (tensile strength up to 116.92 kPa, elongation rate up to 576%). Furthermore, due to the liquid-phase reaction system and excellent [Pb(OAc) 2 ] loading capacity provided by the hydrogel, the prepared sensors exhibited excellent sensing performance response time, sensitivity, and simplicity. The theoretical detection limit of the sensor was 0.69 ppm, and the minimum exposure time required for detection was 14 s. The colorimetric effect of the hydrogels was positively correlated with the addition of Pb(OAc) 2 and the extension of time. The results showed that the color change of PAM/PVA/Pb(OAc) 2 hydrogel can be visible to the naked eye even if the concentration of H 2 S is only 1 ppm. It is expected that this hands-free, arbitrarily adhesive, stretchable hydrogel colorimetric sensor strategy for visual detection of H 2 S will extend toxic gas alarm systems to a new level.

In order to enhance the mechanical properties of lattice structure parts made of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) prepared by selective laser sintering (SLS) technology, this study employed the oxidative self-polymerization of dopamine (DA) to prepare polydopamine-modified silicon carbide whiskers (PDA-SiC) fillers with a core-shell structure. These fillers were uniformly dispersed in a waterborne polyurethane (WPU) to form a coating solution, which was then used to prepare TPU printed parts with a uniform PDA-SiC/WPU coating structure through post-treatment impregnating-curing processes. The coated TPU parts exhibited tensile strength, elongation at break, and room temperature compressive strength of 8.37 MPa, 610.2%, and 1.062 MPa, respectively, representing improvements of 40.9%, 33.2%, and 353.3% compared to pure TPU parts. This approach effectively enhanced the mechanical performance of SLS-formed TPU parts, strengthening their application in the field of flexible lattice structure parts.

Two kinds of porous polymer were prepared based on high functionality components. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) is used to compare the thermal degradation behavior and kinetics of these two materials. The thermogravimetric tests of rigid polyurethane foam (H-RPUF) and polyurea aerogel (H-PUA) were carried out in nitrogen atmosphere at different heating rates. The thermal degradation characteristics of the porous polymer were obtained. The apparent activation energy ( E a ) of thermal degradation of the porous polymer was investigated by model-free methods. The results showed that the thermal degradation temperature and ash content of H-RPUF were higher than those of H-PUA, and the volatile content was lower. With the rise of heating rate, thermal hysteresis effect of the two porous polymer was relatively high, while the release amount of volatiles was unchanged. For the Kissinger method, E a of H-PUA and H-RPUF was 212.8 kJ mol −1 and 157.4 kJ mol −1 , respectively. According to Starink method, the average activation energy of H-PUA and H-RPUF was 220.2 kJ mol −1 and 107.2 kJ mol −1 , respectively. Obtained by Flynn-Wall-Ozawa model, the average activation energy of H-PUA and H-RPUF was 219.0 kJ mol −1 and 111.5 kJ mol −1 , respectively. The data obtained from the three models all show that E a of thermal degradation of H-PUA is higher than that of H-RPUF, and it is less likely to decompose.

In this paper, a novel polymeric antistatic agent, TMQ, with excellent antistatic properties, low cost, and good compatibility with polypropylene (PP), was prepared from isopentenyl polyoxyethylene ether (TPEG), maleic anhydride (MAH) and homemade quaternary ammonium salt (QAS). The structure is characterized using FTIR and 1 H NMR. How the addition of TMQ and the molar ratio of TPEG, QAS, and MAH affect the antistatic, mechanical, and crystalline properties of PP are investigated. The results show that as the feed ratio of TPEG, MAH and QAS is TPEG:MAH:QAS = 1:8:8, the modified PP displays the best overall performances. Further exploring finds out when TMQ is added at 15 wt%, the surface resistivity of PP reduces to 6.78 × 10 9 Ω/sq and the volume resistivity of PP reduces to 7.9 × 10 9 Ω cm −1 , the notched impact strength and melt index improve by 357% and 991%, respectively, while the tensile strength decreases by 38.6% compared with that of pure PP. Besides, the crystal study shows after TMQ is added, the crystallinity of PP reduces, the melt peak temperature remains essentially unchanged, and the crystallization peak temperature increases slightly. The material has excellent antistatic resistance to washing and durability, and the changes in relative humidity have little effect on its antistatic properties.

Ammonium polyphosphate (APP) and intumescent flame-retardant di-(3-amin-opropyltriethoxysilane) spirocyclic pentaerythritol diphosphate (PDAP) were prepared as an intumescent flame retardant with synergistic effect, and polylactic acid (PLA) was modified by melt blending. The flame retardancy of PLA/PDAP/APP was evaluated by limiting oxygen index (LOI), vertical combustion test (UL-94), and cone calorimetry test (CCT), and the thermal stability of PLA/PDAP/APP was studied by thermogravimetric analysis and thermogravimetry-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The possible flame-retardant mechanisms of PLA/PDAP/APP were analyzed based on the results of laser Raman spectroscopy and FTIR. When PDAP:APP = 2:1 and the addition amount of PDAP/APP is 20 wt%, the LOI value of PLA/IFR-modified material is as high as 43%, and the UL-94 test reaches V-0 level, and in the CCT, the PHRR and THR of PLA/PDAP/APP (2:1)-modified material are reduced by 80.7% and 76.8%, respectively, compared with pure PLA, and the carbon residue is as high as 62.01%. The results show that the compound APP/PDAP has an excellent flame-retardant effect on PLA, which provides a good research case for PLA flame-retardant-modified plastic materials.

It is challengeable to obtain shape memory effect in the traditional thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) with sea-island microstructure. Herein, we successfully achieved shape memory behavior in the type of ethylene propylene diene monomer/polypropylene thermoplastic vulcanizate (EPDM/PP TPV) compatibilized by the graft products of magnesium maleic (MgMA) and maleic anhydride (MAH) on the interface of EPDM/PP. MgMA and MAH derived from the in situ neutralization reaction of maleic acid (MA) with magnesium oxide (MgO) and the dehydration reaction of MA respectively. In this paper, the mole ratio of MA and MgO on the performance of EPDM/PP TPV was studied. With the incorporation of MA and MgO, the mechanical property and shape memory performance were improved. The result of DMA, FTIR, and SEM verified the successful graft reaction of MgMA and MAH on the polymer chains. The compatibilized EPDM/PP TPV achieved the improved mechanical property of tensile strength (12.9 MPa) and elongation at break (583.5%), the increased R f of 96.2% and R r of 86.7% at the tailoring mole ratio of MA:MgO (1:1.5).

Through anionic two-stage polymerization, block-type styrene-butadiene rubber (SSBR) with systematically regulable low-temperature loss peaks is successfully prepared. The influence of 1,2-Bd unit in the soft segment of block-type SSBR on mechanical properties, dynamic mechanical properties, and microscopic morphology is studied, while pressure factors are introduced into dynamic mechanical studies. The block-type SSBR with a soft segment containing 21.9 wt% of 1,2-Bd exhibits the highest tensile strength, elongation at break, and tear strength. Under atmospheric pressure, the soft segment 1,2-Bd unit influences the dynamic mechanical properties by altering the chain segment's motion loss capability. As the mass fraction of 1,2-Bd increases from 21.9 to 58.6 wt%, tan δ max increases, the glass transition temperature of the soft segment increases from −59.0 to −18.9°C. Additionally, influenced by thermodynamic compatibility, the microscopic morphology transitions from strong separation to weak separation. Pressure affects dynamic mechanical properties by altering the free volume of the chain segments. Pressure reduces tan δ max , increases T g , and raises the average T g of the soft segment by 11°C. The K value of the linear equation representing the relationship between the soft segment T g and the mass fraction of 1,2-Bd is unaffected by pressure.

Phthalonitrile monomer containing oxazine ring (BPS-Ph) was synthesized using bisphenol-S, aniline, paraformaldehyde, and 4-nitrophthalonitrile via a two-step method. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data of the curing process of BPS-Ph monomer indicates that the peak polymerization temperature of the cyan group is about 250°C and that confirms the promoting effect of oxazine ring on the curing reaction of phthalonitrile. The rheological data of E51/DDS containing BPS-Ph indicates that the BPS-Ph monomer also has promoting effect on the curing process. The activation energy was studied via the iso-conversional method principle. The activation energy corresponding to the E51/DDS crosslinking reaction is 75.79 and 60.54 kJ mol −1 , respectively, for pure E51/DDS and E51/DDS/BPS-Ph. Moreover, the activation energy of the crosslinking of phthalhydrazine is 74.1 kJ mol −1 which is rather lower than that in pure BPS-Ph, and that implies the synergistically catalytic effect of the oxazine ring and the amine. The addition of BPS-Ph monomer significantly improves the thermal behaviors of the thermoset. The char yield in N 2 atmosphere increased from 15.6% to 53.9% when adding 30% BPS-Ph to the E51/DDS. Moreover, the peak weight loss temperature decreased from 407 to 385°C. The phase separation size of poly-BPS-Ph in E51/DDS is about tens to hundreds nanometers according to the atomic force microscopy (AFM) phase diagram. It is indicated that incorporation of phthalonitrile monomer containing oxazine ring into epoxy/amine system is an applicable and effective way to promote the thermal behavior of the thermoset.
