“…Thus, specific cellulose and starch composites that present hydrophilic phases make the θ values smaller and imply a lower surface energy. Thus, the initial contact of the medium with the surface of the material is favored and can increase the retention of water and the fragility of the material . Furthermore, hydrolysis occurs mostly in bulk and depends on other factors, such as stiffness, crystallinity, formation, cracking, and bonding energy.…”

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a biodegradable, brittle, and high-cost polymer, which can be applied over structural components and green packaging. In this study, we reinforced PLA with natural cotton (10 wt %) and thermoplastic starch (TPS; 3 wt %) to obtain a biodegradable and lower cost composite. TPS was incorporated in three distinct ways: it was blended, coated, and blended and coated. In this study, we investigated the compatibilization of TPS in the improvement of matrix-reinforcement adhesion and increase in the tensile behavior without a compromise in biodegradation. The samples were investigated with thermal analysis, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, tensile testing, scanning electron microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy, and hydrolytic degradation. The results show that the coupling effect was more pronounced in the PLA TPS -cotton TPS (hybrid system with PLA and cotton) hybrid system. This formulation presented a higher glass-transition temperature, thermal stability, storage modulus, wettability, and ductility. The TPS addition improved the adhesion between the matrix and starched cotton fiber and retarded abiotic biodegradation. These properties will allow for green applications.

“…24 In the presence of a large amount of surfactant, hydrophobic monomers associate together to form micelles and act as the physical crosslinking points of HA gels. In our previous studies, we explored a series of HA gels synthesized by octyl phenol polyoxyethylene (n) ether acrylate (OP-n-AC n 5 4, 7, 10) as hydrophobic monomers, [25][26][27] acrylamide as a hydrophilic monomer, and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as a surfactant. As shown in Figure 1, hydrophobic monomers formed stable hydrophobic association domains in the presence of surfactant.…”

Hydrophobic association hydrogels (HA gels) have been proven to be one of the most popular research interests in physically crosslinking hydrogels. Meanwhile, the association mode of hydrophobic monomers and the structure of the hydrophobic microdomain is crucial to their mechanical properties. In this study, we designed high‐performance complex HA gels by novel complex micelles and acrylamide without small‐molecule surfactants. The complex micelles were prepared by a simple complex of two polymerizable amphiphilic dodecanol polyoxyethylene (n) acrylate monomers (alcohol ethoxylate (n)‐acryloyl chloride, AEO‐3‐AC, AEO‐23‐AC). The coordination effect between these amphiphilic monomers with a large hydrophilic difference greatly improved the strength of the gels. The mechanical properties, including the breaking elongation ratio and tensile strength, could be easily adjusted through the variation of the complex ratio in a relatively broad range. The mechanical strength of the resulting hydrogels with composite micelles were improved almost 200% over those of the hydrogels having either AEO‐3–AC or AEO‐23–AC. Dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy testing revealed the sizes and morphologies of the complex hydrogels and their composite micelles. The discovery of the coordination provides a new route for preparing high‐performance hydrogels. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2018, 135, 46400.

“…Epoxy-based composites filled with hexagonal boron nitride and cubic boron nitride as hybrid filler system exhibited higher thermal conductivity than that when blending only with hexagonal boron nitride [15]. Although polyarylene ether nitrile (PEN) possesses excellent mechanical properties and thermal thermo-oxidative stability, different fillers are also added in PEN matrix for the formation of highperformance material [16][17][18]. In addition, PEN with low thermal conductivity needs to be modified with high thermal conductive fillers to promote its application for heat conduction.…”

Research and Development Department, Bomin Electronic Co., Ltd, Meizhou, ChinaAluminum nitride (AlN) with high thermal conductivity was blended in polyarylene ether nitrile (PEN) to obtain a composite system. A ball milling process could provide AlN particles of smaller size with higher surface silylation for homogeneous particle distribution in polymeric matrix. Thermal, electrical, and mechanical behaviors of the produced composites were characterized to investigate the effects of particles on the performance of PENbased composites with functionalized AlN. The composite exhibited thermal conductivity of 0.779 W m 21 K 21 ,a dielectric constant of 7.7, dielectric loss of 0.032, electrical resistivity of 1.39 GX.cm, and break strength of 36 N when the fraction of functionalized AlN increased to 42.3 vol%. A fitted equation based on the improved Russell's model could effectively predict a trend for thermal conductivity of the composite systems with consideration of interfacial resistance between AlN and surrounding PEN.
