The stimuli-responsive active packaging materials have attracted large attention while using a simple method to prepare stimuli-responsive active packaging materials remains a challenge. Herein, humidity-responsive core-shell poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-citral nanofiber film was successfully prepared via simple emulsion electrospinning. The active substance citral was encapsulated in the core of the PVA/PCL-citral nanofiber. The controllable release of citral from the core-shell PVA/PCL-citral nanofiber film was achieved by changing the microenvironment's humidity due to the PVA shell's swelling in high humidity. The PVA/PCL-citral nanofiber film exhibited excellent antioxidant capacity with an ABTS free radical scavenging percentage of 88%. The nanofiber film also inhibited Escherichia coli (ATCC 29213) and Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25922) with antimicrobial rates of 99.99% and 99.98%, respectively. A study on the biocompatible nanofiber film as packaging material was conducted on apricots, and the shelf life of apricots was extended to 9 days. Therefore, the humidity-responsive PVA/PCL-citral nanofiber film fabricated in this study has good application potential in antioxidant and antimicrobial packaging.

Repairing and regenerating articular cartilage remains a significant challenge, primarily due to its limited self-healing capability. Hydrogel has emerged as a promising candidate due to its resemblance to extracellular matrices. A porous hydrogel of an appropriate size can facilitate cell growth and integrate into the host tissue. However, the presence of pores in hydrogels will significantly reduce mechanical properties, posing challenges in replacing the load-bearing function of articular cartilage. Here, a porous hydrogel was prepared through a gas forming method based on a triple-network hydrogel system of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-polyacrylamide (PAM)-agarose (AG), with a pore size of 100–200 μm. The hydrogel exhibits a compressive modulus of up to 0.79 MPa and a tensile modulus of up to 0.35 MPa, falling within the reference range of articular cartilage. Furthermore, the porous hydrogel exhibits good creep resistance properties. These results suggest that the porous hydrogels with strong mechanical properties hold promise as a replacement material for articular cartilage.

Polymer sensitive membrane is a key component of the ammonium ion selective electrode (ISE). Developing a high-performance ammonium ion polymer sensitive membrane can promote production and application of the electrode, reducing costs and simplifying ammonia nitrogen detection. In this study, we modified the surface of the ammonium ion selective membrane and synthesized a low-cost antimicrobial material by anchoring the broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), on the surface of two-dimensional transition metal car- bides (Ti 3 C 2 Tx MXene). This material can be used as a carrier to avoid the release of AgNPs. The inorganic antimicrobial agent AgNPs@MXene was adhered to the surface of the ammonium ion-selective membrane by polydopamine, forming an antimicrobial coating. The modified ammonium ion-selective electrode had a rapid response time of 12 s, with an average response time of 12.4 s. After repeated tests, a lower detection limit of 5.89 × 10 −7 (10 −6.23 ) mol/L was achieved in ammonium chloride solution. These results indicate that the ammonium ion monitoring electrode we prepared can effectively monitor ammonia nitrogen concentration in sewage and wastewater over a long period of time. This also enhances the service life of the ammonium ISE and reduces maintenance costs for the sensor.

A novel epoxy plasticizer (HCEP) with a hyperbranched polyglycerol structure was synthesized using reduced glycerol and cashew phenol as raw materials. Then it was grafted onto poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) through click reaction to form self-plasticized PVC. The structure of the product was characterized with various methods. The effects of the degree of internal plasticizer substitution on the properties of PVC were tested through dynamic mechanical, mechanical property, and thermogravimetric analyses. The amorphous dendritic structure of HCEP effectively enhances the free volume of grafted PVC, leading to a reduction in the glass transition temperature and a significant enhancement in flexibility at room temperature. The maximum elongation at break is 289.89%. The grafting of plasticizers onto PVC avoids the leaching of plasticizers during usage, providing a viable solution for reducing reliance on phthalate-based plasticizers.

Light-responsive cellulose nanocrystal@polydopamine (CNC@PDA) modified fluorinated polyacrylate was synthesized by Pickering emulsion polymerization with light-responsive block copolymer modified CNC@PDA as stabilizer. The epoxy groups in poly(acrylic acid- co -acrylamide)- b -poly(glycidyl methacrylate)- b -poly(hexafluorobutyl acrylate- co -coumarin) amphiphilic triblock copolymer reacted with the hydroxyl and amino groups on the surface of CNC@PDA to form the modified CNC@PDA. The successful preparation of modified CNC@PDA was confirmed by means of FT-IR, XRD, TG, UV–Vis, surface tension measurement, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. The results showed that the modified CNC@PDA had light-responsive and amphiphilic properties, and could be used as stabilizer to form stable Pickering emulsion. And the influence of modified CNC@PDA dosage on emulsion polymerization and film performance was systematically studied. The latex particle size decreased initially with increasing modified CNC@PDA dosage, from 0.6 to 1.0 wt%, and then increased. The mechanical, self-healing, and water–oil repellent properties of film were enhanced initially with increasing modified CNC@PDA dosage, from 0.6 to 1.0 wt%, and then declined. Atomic force microscope confirmed that the latex film had a rough surface. Moreover, the latex film comprising 1.0 wt% modified CNC@PDA presented not only high tensile strength (4.92 MPa), large elongation at break (657.70%), and superior oil/water repellency but also excellent self-healing property.

Acrylic resin, as a common coating and adhesive, possesses excellent heat resistance, weather resistance, and is inexpensive, making it widely used in industries related to automotive, construction, electronics, fabrics, and other sectors essential to our daily life. Traditional acrylic resin not only pollutes the environment but also poses certain health risks. Therefore, we studied the synthesis of a low-temperature self-crosslinking acrylic emulsions were synthesized by free radical solution polymerization using methyl methacrylate (MMA), butyl acrylate (BA), acrylic acid (AA), diacetone acrylamide (DAAM), hydroxypropyl acrylate (HPA), epoxy resin (E-51) as the monomers, vinyltriethoxysilane (A-51) as the coupling agent, and adipic dihydrazide (ADH) as the cross-linking agent. This water-based acrylic resin undergoes a crosslinking reaction between the carbonyl group of DAAM and the hydrazide group of ADH, substantially improved the drying speed and adhesion compared to unmodified versions, and also improved the thermal stability. The contact angle of the film increased from 72.8° to 86.9° with the increase of the degree of cross-linking, and the mechanical properties were improved by 60%. This study provides a suitable formulation for preparing water-based acrylic resins with superior performance.

Metal–organic frame UiO-66-NH 2 was modified by 3-glycidyl ether oxypropyl trimethoxysilane (KH560), and KH560-UiO-66-NH 2 was synthetized and added to Pebax to prepare KH560-UiO-66-NH 2 /Pebax mixed matrix membranes (MMMs). The epoxy group of KH560 had an amine-epoxidation reaction with the NH 2 in UiO-66-NH 2 , which prevented UiO-66-NH 2 from agglutinating in the MMMs. In addition, the N H bond and OH bond of KH560-UiO-66-NH 2 could theoretically form hydrogen bonds with CO and N H bonds in the main chain of polymerization, respectively, so as to improve the interfacial compatibility between fillers and polymers. The structure and properties of the filler particles and MMMs were evaluated by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analyzer. The results showed that the filler particles were successfully synthesized, and had good crystallinity, uniform size distribution, and good thermal stability. The inorganic and organic interfaces of MMMs had no obvious interface defects. The obtained KH560-UiO-66-NH 2 /Pebax MMMs showed CO 2 permeability of 111.52 Barre and CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 92.16, which were 85.65% and 88.73% higher than that of pristine membranes, respectively. The gas separation performance of MMMs was significantly improved, exceeding the upper bound of 2008 Robeson.

The iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs), coated with different materials, are synthesized and utilized as nucleating agents to prepare magnetic multi-modal porous scaffolds of poly (lactic- co -glycolic acid)/IONs using the supercritical carbon dioxide (ScCO 2 ) foaming process. The effects of the modification materials, including citric acid, polycaprolactone, and polyvinyl acetate, on the foaming process and properties of the magnetic scaffolds are systematically investigated. The results indicate that the solubility and diffusion ability of CO 2 in the foaming materials played a vital role in the foaming process. The use of CO 2 -philic materials and high pressure proves beneficial in generating micropores. The scaffolds with multi-modal porous structures can be obtained at relatively low pressure for the ScCO 2 foaming systems evaluated in this study. Furthermore, the prepared scaffolds exhibit high porosity and a good compressive modulus (higher than 0.4 MPa), satisfying the requirements of tissue engineering for soft tissue scaffolds.

Isocyanate-based monomers and polymers have found widespread industrial application; however, the realization of green water-based products via the preparation of stable isocyanate aqueous emulsions remains challenging. Herein, a series of organosilicon and organofluorine synergistically modified amphiphilic branched polyurethanes (HBWPU), synthesized by grafting perfluorohexyl ethanol semi-terminated isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) onto a hydrophilic polyurethane prepolymer, is presented. Subsequently, using a physical mixing method, stable diisocyanate emulsions are fabricated by preparing diisocyanate latex particles with IPDI as the core and hyperbranched water-based polyurethanes (HBWPU) as the shell. Structural investigations showed that the branching degree and fluorine content of the HBWPU significantly affects the stability of the diisocyanate emulsions. Increasing the degree of branching from 0.34 to 0.86 causes the amount of residual isocyanate ( NCO) groups to decrease from 20.1% to 16.7%. In contrast, an increase in the fluorine content from 0% to 17.8% increases the amount of residual NCO groups from 11.5% to 24.6%. Thus, HBWPU can be used as an emulsifier to prepare waterborne diisocyanate cross-linking agents. Such polyurethane-coated isocyanate aqueous emulsions can increase the hardness and significantly improve the acetone resistance of hydroxyl polyacrylate resins.

Improving the stability of CO 2 foam is a core concern in CO 2 foam flooding oil recovery technology. Using hydrophobic nano-SiO 2 to enhance the stability of CO 2 foam is a common approach, but hydrophobic nano-SiO 2 faces challenges, such as easy aggregation, difficult dispersion, and performance needs to improve. In this article, a novel dispersion of styrene-phenylamine monomer copolymer (PSSN) nanosphere with primary amine groups on the surface was synthesized. The synthesis conditions of PSSN were optimized, and its performance for stabilizing CO 2 foam was evaluated. The experimental results demonstrated that PSSN had better performance for stabilizing CO 2 foam than that of hydrophobic nano-SiO 2 when using cocamidopropyl betaine (CAB) as the foaming agent. With the CAB concentration of 4000 mg/L and PSSN concentration of 100 mg/L in the brine having salinity of 8460 mg/L, the half-life of CO 2 foam at 90°C was 131 min, which was 43 min longer than that stabilized by hydrophobic nano-SiO 2 under the same conditions. This is for the first time that polystyrene microspheres with amine groups on the surface was used to stabilize CO 2 foam. The study provides a new nanoparticle option for stabilizing CO 2 foam.

With a shell of poly (methyl methacrylate-co-hydroxyl ethyl acrylate) (PMMA-HA), microencapsulated ammonium polyphosphate (MHAPP) is prepared by in situ polymerization. The core-shell structure of the reactive flame retardant (FR) is characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM/EDS). The results of water leaching rate and water contact angle measurements show that ammonium polyphosphate (APP) is well coated by a hydrophobic shell. Due to the presence of active groups (–OH) and hydrophobic groups (–CH 3 ) in shell, MHAPP exhibits better compatibility, flame retardancy, and water resistance compared with neat ammonium polyphosphate (APP) in rigid polyurethane foam (PU). Compression strength of PU/MHAPP with suitable loading is higher than that of PU/APP and PU, the reason is that the active groups in shell can improve the compatibility of MHAPP in PU composite. From thermal stability and residue analysis, it can be seen that the presence of reactive flame retardant shows positive effect on thermal stability of PU composite at high temperature, results also indicate that MHAPP can promote the carbonization formation efficiency of PU composite during combustion process compared with APP. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A hyperbranched polyol (HBP) was synthesized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) as the core molecule and 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl) propionic acid as the chain extender. Then, a series of hyperbranched polyurethane phase-change materials (HP-PCMs) with different crosslinking densities was synthesized with isophorone diisocyanate and HBP as a molecular skeleton and PEG 6000 as a phase-change ingredient. 1 H-NMR, gel permeation chromatography, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the successful synthesis of the HBP and HP-PCMs. The polarization optical microscopy and wide-angle X-ray diffraction results show that the HP-PCM exhibited good crystallization properties, but the crystallinity was lower than that of PEG 6000. The analysis results from differential scanning calorimetry indicated that the HP-PCMs were typical solid–solid phase-change materials with suitable phase-transition temperatures. In addition, HP-PCM-3, with an appropriate degree of hyperbranched structure, possessed the highest thermal transition enthalpy of 123.5 J/g. Moreover, thermal cycling testing and thermogravimetric analysis showed that the HP-PCMs exhibited good thermal reliability and stability. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.
