However, their use in fibers remains relatively unexplored. In this study, a mechanoresponsive polymer is synthesized by incorporating a spiropyran (SP) mechanophore into a polyurethane backbone. Based on this mechanoresponsive polyurethane, mechanochromic fibers are fabricated via solution spinning. The fibers exhibits a clear color change from colorless to blue when subjected to external tensile stress or ultraviolet irradiation, triggered by the activation of the SP mechanophore. Furthermore, the mechanical sensitivity of the fibers can be tailored by adjusting the orientation of the polymer chains through hot stretching. Fibers subjected to higher pre-stretching during post-processing displayed a mechanochromic response at lower strain levels. Various pre-stretched fibers are then made into a barcode, which exhibits distinct dynamic information via color change during stretching. The innovative application of function fibers, capable of storing information through mechanochromic response, offers a novel approach to the development of anti-counterfeit fibers.","PeriodicalId":205,"journal":{"name":"Macromolecular Rapid Communications","volume":" ","pages":"e2400979"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143051186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chemically recyclable thermoset polymers can enable fiber recovery and reuse; however, challenges remain in the separation and purification of depolymerized small molecules for efficient polymer recycling. To this end, a series of liquid resins for chemically recyclable polymer networks is designed based on phthalic anhydride, a widely produced and inexpensive chemical. The straightforward sublimation of phthalic anhydride is leveraged to enable a simple and efficient separation process for polymer recycling. To liquefy phthalic anhydride, five mono-acryloyl-phthalates are synthesized to obtain stable liquid resins together with phthalic diglycidyl ester. These liquid resins undergo dual-cure reactions that comprise photopolymerization of acrylate and, subsequently, heat-mediated epoxy-acid polymerization reactions. These liquid resins exhibit moderate viscosities (2600-6400 cP @ 22 °C), fast curing, and robust thermomechanical properties (Tgs from 71 to 116 °C). It is demonstrated that hydrolysis of the dual-cured polymers completes within 2 h at 80 °C, and direct sublimation produces phthalic anhydride with 82% yield. This resin system is expected to provide a cost-competitive, highly efficient platform for recyclable FRCs.","PeriodicalId":205,"journal":{"name":"Macromolecular Rapid Communications","volume":" ","pages":"e2400909"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143051182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to meet the functional requirements of PIMs, two principal methods are used to synthesize functional PIMs, namely, post-modification of PIMs precursors and functionalization of monomers. A number of post-modification routes have been reported, however, the direct synthesis of functional PIMs with diverse groups still remains a challenge. The synthesis of PIMs through the acid-catalyzed polyhydroxyalkylation has been demonstrated to be an effective solution, exhibiting the advantages of wider substrates range, milder reaction conditions, and higher molecular weight. Recently, a series of functional substrates for direct synthesis of PIMs have been proposed. This article presents a review and summary of recent advances in synthesizing PIMs via acid-catalyzed polyhydroxyalkylation, and the synthesis route and structure-activity relationship are emphasized, which provides a versatile platform for the direct synthesis of functional PIMs.","PeriodicalId":205,"journal":{"name":"Macromolecular Rapid Communications","volume":" ","pages":"e2400958"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143051180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite this, challenges associated with the mechanical stability, processability, and fabrication of conducting polymers have limited their utility. To circumvent these limitations, thiophene substituted 2-oxazolines (2Ox) and 2-oxazines (2Ozi) are introduced, which can be polymerized to form a thermally stable and potentially melt-processable polymers as precursors for conductive polymers. A series of such monomers are synthesized and yields above 50% are obtained for gram scale reactions. The monomers can subsequently be polymerized using standard cationic ring-opening methods to yield thiophene-bearing poly(2-oxazoline)s (POx) and poly(2-oxazine)s (POzi) with narrow to moderate dispersity. The polymers exhibit glass transition temperatures between 50 °C and 100 °C and thermal stability beyond 250 °C. Moreover, random copolymers can be produced by introducing aliphatic 2-oxazolines during polymer synthesis, which facilitates tailoring of the polymer properties and may enable new applications in melt extrusion printing or electrospinning of precursors for conducting polymer systems. Overall, a facile approach is described for the synthesis of thiophene-functionalized monomers and polymers, providing covalent integration of thiophenes that opens new avenues toward the generation of functional and stimuli-responsive biomaterials.","PeriodicalId":205,"journal":{"name":"Macromolecular Rapid Communications","volume":" ","pages":"e2400946"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143051184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the existing electrospun fibers are still limited to their sub-micron diameters and unstable surface electrostatic effect, leading to deteriorated filtration performance after prolonged storage or wetting. Herein, the study creates nanofibrous membranes with long-time stable electrostatics by electret-enhanced electrospinning. The phase separation and polarization of the charged jet are manipulated to achieve rapid stretch and strong electret. The obtained membrane exhibits nanosized structures with fiber diameters of ≈220 nm, pore size <1 µm, as well as robust surface potential of 0.4 kV. By virtue of the synergistic effects of sieving and adsorption, the nanofibrous membrane showed a remarkable PM0.3 filtration efficiency of 96.6% and pressure drop of 140 Pa, even reaching the N90 standard after five wetting cycles. The design of such durable membranes will offer a new sight in the functional filtration materials.","PeriodicalId":205,"journal":{"name":"Macromolecular Rapid Communications","volume":" ","pages":"e2401058"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143051177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The encapsulation of PCMs prepared as microcapsules using polysiloxanes, etc. as a component unit of crosslinking agents represents a highly promising avenue of research. In this work, organosilicon crosslinkers are prepared and employed for the crosslinking of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) for microencapsulation of paraffin wax in microcapsule phase change materials (mPCMs). The results showed that increasing the degree of crosslinking helps to improve the performance of mPCMs by smoothing the shell surface, but excessive crosslinking leads to flocculation, which reduces its performance. The mPCMs produced with 10% wt crosslinking agent gave the highest performance with encapsulation efficiency, melting enthalpy and crystallization enthalpy of 81.3%, 285.0 J g-1 and 253.1 J g-1, respectively. The obtained mPCMs are also combined with epoxy resin and fabrics to form composite materials. Notably, the polysiloxane-modified mPCMs permit epoxy resins to achieve a maximum temperature reduction of 25 °C. By adjusting the mass ratio of organosilicon crosslinkers, the obtained mPCMs enable textiles to reach a maximum temperature reduction of 17 °C while maintaining satisfactory air permeability.","PeriodicalId":205,"journal":{"name":"Macromolecular Rapid Communications","volume":" ","pages":"e2400942"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143051178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using dual Gaussian fitting, flow-induced dispersion analysis (FIDA), a TDA-based method, successfully determined the average hydrodynamic radii of multiple species in solvent-fractionated soda grass lignin samples, producing results consistent with DOSY. Molar mass calibration enabled comparisons between FIDA and SEC, revealing similar relative differences across lignin fractions. FIDA offers advantages such as rapid analysis and absence of stationary phase interactions, however its accuracy is limited by the variability of lignin fluorescence.

The results indicate that NPs produced through this nanopolymerization technique with precisely controlled sequences exhibit heightened stability compared to conventionally sequenced and non-sequence controlled PLGA, as evidenced by minimal pH changes over five weeks. This improved stability is attributed to simultaneous crosslinking and co-polymerization of the OLGADMAs.
