Epoxy Resin for the 4th Industrial Revolution

  • Polymer Reviews
  • August 2019
  • A review of the different approaches in the development of multifunctional epoxy systems. Epoxy resins that behave both thermoplastic and thermoset are now the norm in R&D. Multifunctionality here ...

Catalysis in Cross Coupling Reactions (Synthesis of Biaryls)

  • September 2016
  • Formation of biaryl compounds via Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reactions without the use of ligands. This describes developments in Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction, regarding a ligand-free ...

Making paper products more robust in high humidity conditions

  • Carbohydrate Polymers
  • January 2014
  • The use of readily available citric acid (CA) solution as a crosslinker for cellulosic groups in paper products is proposed here. This cross-linking reaction can improved the mechanical performanc...

Fast Curing Epoxy Resin Compositions with Ionic Liquid as Additive

  • ACS Applied Polymer Materials
  • June 2020
  • Commercially available epoxy resins can be cured in seconds using very small amounts of solvate ionic liquids (SIL)s. This is the first ultrafast rapid curing epoxy resin composition, observed at l...

Intrinsically Conductive Epoxy Thermoset

  • Polymer
  • July 2021
  • A single material combining the unique properties of stable radical moieties with the versatility of the epoxy polymer is presented. In this combined material, intrinsic electronic conduction is en...

Bending the Epoxy Polymer with Magnets and Radicals

  • Soft Matter
  • January 2022
  • Specific sites in the epoxy backbone were pointed in a specific direction using external magnetic fields. Orienting was made possible by incorporating stable radical sites in the epoxy backbone. Al...

Novel epoxy-based supercapacitors based on stable organic radicals

  • Polymer
  • September 2022
  • Intrinsic p-type conductivity was observed in an otherwise aliphatic epoxy backbone through derivatization with stable radicals. The conductive potential of this combined radical-epoxy material was...

Recent Progress and Multifunctional Applications of Fire-retardant Epoxy Resins

  • Materials Today Communications
  • December 2022
  • Modifiers like graphene, phosphorus, boron compounds or similar compatible fillers have been used to improve the fire retardancy of epoxy resins. The quantity of modifiers introduced into the epoxy...

Recycling polystyrene waste to more valuable materials

  • Polymers
  • November 2022
  • Several environmental and techno-economic assessments highlighted the advantage of placing polystyrene-based materials in a circular loop, from production to waste generation to product refabricati...
