It induces significant changes in non-rubber components and network structure. These changes directly affect the performance of the final products. Matured NRL has been widely applied in industry. However, research on the maturation mechanism of NRL remains limited both domestically and internationally. The underlying action mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. In this study, NRL was matured under different conditions. Results showed that the NRL-40-2 sample possessed a more uniform chemical cross-linking network and a denser physical entanglement network. This led to a 15.9% increase in tensile strength. This study systematically elucidated the mechanism of maturation treatment. Microbial and enzyme-mediated degradation removes the protein protective layer on NRL particle surfaces. It induces branching and cross-linking reactions of terminal groups in rubber molecular chains via hydrogen bonds or covalent bonds. At the same time, van der Waals forces form physical entanglements. These processes construct a denser natural network structure. Furthermore, degradation products from non-rubber components increase the vulcanization rate and cross-link density of the vulcanizates.

This study demonstrates a solvent-free strategy for significantly enhancing the toughness of epoxy resins while maintaining their mechanical strength and thermal stability through incorporation of hyperbranched epoxy resins (HPEs).

Conventional encapsulation systems often fail to provide adequate protection and lack intelligent release capabilities. This study presents an innovative solution using white beeswax as a smart shell material, leveraging its unique temperature-dependent crystalline structure for controllable release. Through systematic optimization of melt-dispersion parameters—specifically a 1:5 oil-to-water ratio, 100 mL Poloxamer F68, and 800 r/min stirring rate—we successfully fabricated eugenol-loaded microcapsules with uniform particle size (60–80 μm). Comprehensive characterization revealed their rough surface morphology, enhanced thermal stability, and robust mechanical properties, evidenced by an average rupture force of 4.09 mN. The microcapsules demonstrated exceptional temperature-responsive behavior: providing sustained release over several days at 20 °C while achieving complete release within hours at 45 °C. Remarkably, the release rate could be dynamically and reversibly modulated through temperature cycling between these points, attributed to the reversible crystalline-to-amorphous transitions of the beeswax matrix. Kinetic analysis established that this intelligent release follows first-order kinetics, indicating a diffusion-dominated mechanism through the wax matrix. This work not only establishes an optimized preparation protocol but also provides fundamental insights into the release mechanisms, offering a robust platform for developing smart delivery systems with promising applications in temperature-activated food packaging and dermatological therapeutics.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"304 6","pages":"1315 - 1331"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148021064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, highly fluorescent CQDs were synthesized from <i>Citrus limetta</i> (sweet lemon) juice via a simple, one-pot hydrothermal carbonization process. The naturally abundant organic acids, sugars, and nitrogenous components present in sweet lemon served as efficient carbon and heteroatom sources, enabling the formation of strongly emissive CQDs without the need for toxic reagents or complex treatments. The resulting CQDs exhibited bright green fluorescence under Ultraviolet (UV) illumination, excellent aqueous solubility, and low toxicity. A remarkable quantum yield of 9.28% was achieved at an excitation wavelength of 370 nm. Structural and surface analyses using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and zeta potential measurements confirmed the presence of oxygen-rich functional groups that contribute to colloidal stability. X-ray diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and Dynamic Light Scattering revealed that the CQDs are predominantly spherical, amorphous to poorly crystalline, and range in size from 5 to 22 nm with an average diameter of ~ 10 nm. The Prepared nontoxic nature of synthesized CQDS is used for various applications, such as bioimaging, Drug delivery, and metal ion detection.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"304 6","pages":"1513 - 1522"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148021061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
