People are always puzzled by “white pollution” in recent decade. Recycling of waste styrofoam as a coating is a good sustainable solution to resolve this problem. However, the poor compatibility between inorganic additives and polymer hinders the application of recycled polystyrene. In this article, anisotropic Janus particles were used to increase the compatibility of titanium dioxide/waste styrofoam coatings. SEM results show that Janus particles can be anchored at the interface between styrofoam and titanium dioxide, increasing the dispersion of titanium dioxide, and improving the compatibility of inorganic particles and organic polymer. The glass-transition temperature of styrofoam coating increases from 77 °C to 89 °C in titanium dioxide/styrofoam contained 1 wt % of Janus particles, which certified that Janus particles have compatibilization on titanium dioxide/styrofoam coating. Attributing to this compatibilization, the tensile strength of titanium dioxide/styrofoam with 1 wt % of Janus particles rises about 45% compared with titanium dioxide/styrofoam. The yield stress, storage modulus, and viscosity of titanium dioxide/styrofoam contained 1 wt % of Janus particles are the smallest and the closest to Newtonian fluid. Janus particles used in the recycled styrofoam coating is benefit to expand the application of waste styrofoam and the new anisotropic Janus compatibilizer. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

A novel low-cost SiO 2 /Polyvinylchloride (PVC) membrane with different nano-SiO 2 particles loading (0–4 wt %) was prepared by the phase-inversion process. The optimum nano-SiO 2 dosage was determined as 1.5 wt % based on the casting solution compositions, the membranes' mechanical properties and hydrophilicities, the pure water fluxes, microstructures, and absorption of protein. Compared with the bare membrane, the membrane with 1.5 wt % nano-SiO 2 addition presented better capabilities against the protein absorption and bacterial attachment, better antifouling performance, and higher flux recovery ratio in filtration of the supernatant liquor which collected from a secondary sedimentation tank in a municipal wastewater plant. The SiO 2 /PVC membranes have applicable potential in the municipal wastewater treatment for their low price, good antifouling performance and high removal efficiencies of SS (over 97.2%), COD (up to 82.9%) and total bacteria (more than 93.6%). © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel P C N bond containing azaphosphorine, 5-(4-hydroxy)anilinomethyl-1,3-di(4-hydroxy)phenyl-1,3,5-diazaphosphorinane (ADDPP-OH), which could be used as both a cocuring agent and a flame-retarding agent for epoxy resins (EPs), was synthesized from tetrakis(hydroxymethyl)phosphonium sulfate and characterized by FTIR, 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR, 31 P-NMR, and so on. Compared with the pure EP, the ADDPP-OH–EP composites showed increased decomposition temperatures and char yields. When the content of ADDPP-OH was 10 wt %, the cured EP composite possessed a limiting oxygen index value of 33.7% and passed the V-0 rating of the UL-94 test. The mechanical properties of the ADDPP-OH–EP composites was improved because of the increased crosslinking density. In addition, the morphology of the residual char indicated an intumescent and multiporous structure in the inner space and a compact and continual appearance in the outer layer; this was important in preventing the materials from burning further. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Transparent self-healing polymers have a promising future, but the research on the relationship among transparency, self-healing, and structure is still challenging. The thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers containing aryl carbamate were prepared by the reaction of isocyanate-terminated prepolymer and chain-extender bisphenol A (BPA). On the one hand, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer could heal at a relatively low temperature due to the exchange of aryl carbamate, and exhibits 83% of healing efficiency at 90°C for 2 h. On the other hand, two methyl groups of BPA hinder the crystallization of hard segments in polyurethane, so the domain of hard segments is amorphous, while the microcrystals of soft segments dispersed in the polyurethane are affected by the content of hard segments, therefore, the transparency of polyurethane can be tailored by the content of hard segments. It provides a simple design and a feasible preparation method for transparent self-healing polymer.

Crosslinkable sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone)s (SPAESs) were synthesized by copolymerization of 4,4′-biphenol with 2,6-difluorobenzil, 4,4′-difluorodiphenyl sulfone, and 3,3′-disulfonated-4,4′-difluorodiphenyl sulfone disodium salt. The corresponding covalent-ionically crosslinked SPAESs were prepared via the cyclocondensation reaction of benzil moieties in polymer chain with 3,3′-diaminobenzidine. The crosslinking significantly improved the membrane performance, that is, the crosslinked membranes had the lower membrane dimensional swelling, lower methanol permeability, and higher oxidative stability than the corresponding precursor membranes, with keeping the reasonably high proton conductivity. The crosslinked membrane ( CS5 ) with measured ion exchange capacity of 1.47 meq g −1 showed a reasonably high proton conductivity of 112 mS cm −1 with water uptake of 42 wt % at 80°C, and exhibited a low methanol permeability of 2.1 × 10 −7 cm 2 s −1 for 32 wt % methanol solution at 25°C. The crosslinked SPAES membranes have potential for PEFC and DMFCs. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012

In this study, a novel -intercalated layered double hydroxide (Sb-LDH) was prepared by simultaneous recovering of LDH structures and intercalation of into LDH layers. The prepared Sb-LDH composites remain the hydrotalcite structure with layered geometry and show higher thermal property than that of LDH. When applied to poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) composites, Sb-LDH showed limited thermal stability for PVC at the early stage of thermal and thermooxidative degradation processes. However, Sb-LDH could retard the thermal cracking of the carbonaceous conjugated polyene of PVC which may hinder further degradation, and the moderate amount of Sb-LDH (1, 2, and 5 wt %) in PVC resin can retard the process of decarbonation and enhance char formation. Sb-LDH also promoted the transparency of PVC but darkened the color. With the advantages of transparency promotion, high temperature resistance, and long-term stability, the prepared Sb-LDH is a potential thermal stabilizer for PVC resins. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A series of biodegradable PEG-containing polyanhydrides composed of sebacic acid, 1, 6-bis( p -carboxyphenoxy) hexane, and poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) were used as matrix material for BSA-loaded microspheres. The effects of polymer composition on the microsphere size, entrapment efficiency, in vitro degradation, and in vitro protein release were studied. Microspheres in the size range of 0.8–10 μm were fabricated via a modified double emulsion method and were characterized using scanning electron microscopy. As the content or the molecular weight of PEG was increased in the copolymer, a proportional increase was found in the particle size and the efficiency of BSA entrapment. The in vitro degradation rate of particles could be controlled by varying the polymer composition, increasing as the PEG proportion increased. In vitro release studies of BSA from polyanhydride microspheres revealed that the increased amounts of PEG within microspheres could accelerate the release rate of protein. These studies indicate that the PEG-containing polyanhydrides hold potential for protein delivery applications. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011

A new compatibilizer [P(GMA- co -VCz) copolymer] containing carbazole moiety and reactive epoxide group, which can functionalize multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) for making superior epoxy composites, was prepared by a simple one-pot free radical polymerization. The designed compatibilizer could noncovalently functionalize multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNTs) via π-π interaction as evidenced from fluorescence, Raman, and FTIR spectra analysis, and efficiently disperse MWCNTs in organic solvents. TEM images suggest a good wrapping of P(GMA- co -VCz) on MWCNTs surface. P(GMA- co -VCz) functionalized MWCNTs were more homogeneously dispersed in epoxy matrix than the case without compatibilizer, indicating that the compatibilizer improves the compatibility between MWCNTs and epoxy resin. In addition, the presence of epoxide groups in compatibilizer could generate covalent bonds with the epoxy matrix and improve the interface interaction between MWCNTs and epoxy matrix. As a result, mechanical and electrical properties of the epoxy composites with compatibilizer were largely improved as compared with those of composites without compatibilizer. The addition of as little as 0.15 wt % of MWCNTs to epoxy matrix affords a great increase of 40% in storage modulus and 52.5% in elongation at break. Furthermore, a sharp decrease of almost 9 orders of magnitude in volume resistivity of epoxy composite is observed. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2017 , 134 , 45022.

In recent years, piezoresistive pressure sensors with superhydrophobicity have aroused considerable attention. In addition, to comply with “sustainable development” strategy, the sensors fabricated with eco-friendly materials is of great theoretical and practical significance. Herein, tannic acid (TA) was first absorbed on the surface of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) nonwoven fabric by simple dipping method. After that, silver (Ag) particles were in situ generated on the surface to construct roughness with the reduction role of TA by immersing the fabric into silver nitrate aqueous solution. Finally, n-lauryl mercaptan was grafted on the Ag particles via Ag–S bonds to provide low surface energy, and a conductive and superhydrophobic PLA (CSPLA) nonwoven fabric was fabricated. The obtained CSPLA nonwoven fabric had a high water contact angle of 150.3°. The fabric-based piezoresistive pressure sensor possessed high sensitivity, fast response, good stability, and excellent reusability, and was successfully applied for detecting various human motions including voice recognition, joint bending, stomping, walking, and jumping. The fabricated sensor has great application potential in the fields of touchable displays, electronic skins, intelligent robotics, and wearable devices.

Reduced graphene oxide-silica (rGO/SiO 2 ) nanocomposite filler was prepared with a ball milling process and then modified using a coupling agent of NH 2 C 3 H 6 Si(OC 2 H 5 ) 3 (KH-550) to improve its dispersion in the fluoroethylene vinyl ether (FEVE) coating. The surface properties and morphologies of the modified rGO/SiO 2 (M-rGO/SiO 2 ) nanocomposite filler and M-rGO/SiO 2 -reinforced FEVE coating were characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and Tafel polarization curves were applied to illustrate the corrosion resistance of the coating. The results showed that the M-rGO/SiO 2 composite can disperse well in the coating and efficiently extend the corrosion path, enhancing the anti-corrosion property of the FEVE coating. Therefore, the |Z| 0.01 Hz of M-rGO/SiO 2 reinforced FEVE coating maintained at around 10 10 Ω·cm 2 in the 30 days test cycle and a protection efficiency of up to 95.18% was achieved.

Intumescent flame retardant (IFR) is the new generation of environmentally friendly flame retardant. The improved water solubility of IFR enhances its application in cellulose-based textiles. A water-soluble carbon–nitrogen–phosphorus (C–N–P) ternary IFR (PTETP) was synthesized using cyanuric chloride (TCT), ethylene glycol (EG), and O-phosphoethanolamine (O-PEA) as starting materials. The burning performance of untreated and PTETP treated cotton fabrics was evaluated using vertical flammability test (VFT), limiting oxygen index (LOI), and cone calorimetry. The results indicate that with the increase of PTETP content, the flame retardant performance of cotton fabrics is gradually enhanced. The cotton fabric treated with 10 wt% PTETP shows no afterflame combustion, has a char length of 98 mm, and a LOI of 30.8%. Compared with pristine cotton fabric, the peak heat release rate (PHRR) and total heat release (THR) of the treated cotton fabric were reduced by 52.6% and 28.2%, respectively. Thermogravimetric (TG) shows that PTETP effectively improves the thermal stability and reduces the thermal decomposition temperature of cotton fabric, and even can increases the residual carbon rate by 20%. In addition, the employment of PTETP shows no harm on the tensile strength of cotton fabrics. After washing 20 times, LOI of flame-retardant cotton fabric still remained almost 26%.

Copolyureas have a variety of sequence structures because of the diversity of monomer types and quantities, which directly determine their properties. 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), m-phenylenediamine (MPD), and polyoxypropylenediamine (D2000) are used as monomers to study the influence of mixing on the sequence structure of as-prepared copolyurea. D2000 as a macromolecular aliphatic diamine has an extremely high reactivity with MDI, which is two to three orders of magnitude higher than that of MPD with MDI. While the molecular chain of D2000 is much longer than that of MPD, resulting in that the reaction between D2000 and MDI is much easier to change from reaction control to diffusion control than that between MPD and MDI. It is verified that the enhanced mixing can dramatically reduce the hindered effect of diffusion, and promote the reaction of MDI and D2000 to change the sequence structure of as-synthesized copolyurea. Specifically, as the stirring speed increased from 100 to 800 rpm, the content of MPD-MDI-MPD segment decreased from 57 to 15 mol%, while that of MPD-MDI-D2000 and D2000-MDI-D2000 segments increased from 39 and 4 mol% to 64 and 21 mol%, respectively. As a result, the as-synthesized copolyureas become more ductile from the high tensile strength and hardness. More specifically, the Shore A hardness, tensile strength, and the broken elongation of the as-synthesized copolyureas were changed from 81, 56 MPa and 65% to 68, 40 MPa and 188%, respectively.
