This work presents a comprehensive investigation into the effect of copolymer-tethered nanoparticles (NPs) on the compatibilization of immiscible polystyrene/polymethyl methacrylate (PS/PMMA) blends. The morphology, rheological behavior, and mechanical properties of the blends were analyzed to compare the compatibilization effects of NPs tethered with block, random, and graft copolymers. Our findings indicate that block copolymer-tethered NPs exhibited superior compatibilization efficiency in contrast to random and graft copolymer-tethered NPs. Moreover, by achieving an optimized balance in selective molecular entanglement, the incorporation of 3 wt% block copolymer-tethered NPs with extended PS and PMMA blocks demonstrated the most efficient compatibilization, decreasing the size of dispersed phases from 6.42 ± 9.66 µm to 1.25 ± 0.73 µm while boosting the tensile strength of blends by 78%.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3><p>This work presents a comprehensive investigation into the effect of copolymer-tethered nanoparticles on the compatibilization of immiscible polystyrene/polymethyl methacrylate (PS/PMMA) blends.</p>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"302 12","pages":"1857 - 1865"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142180969","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}

The crosslinking abilities of these acids were compared using physical, chemical, mechanical, morphological, thermal, and swelling measurements to assess their impact on the physicochemical properties of the resulting films. Based on the degree of crosslinking, mechanical strength, and thermal stability, tetra acid demonstrated superior crosslinking performance compared to di and tri acids. The highest strength was observed in the tetra acid crosslinked film, which exhibited a 127% increase over neat PVA. Regarding thermal stability, the decomposition temperature followed the order of tetraacid (450 °C) &gt; triacid (378 °C) &gt; diacid (350 °C). However, in terms of swelling behavior, triacid-crosslinked film, i.e., P-CA, exhibited the highest swelling. Further, the tetra acid-crosslinked film exhibited the lowest crystallinity and a higher contact angle (104.9°) than diacid and triacid crosslinked films. Additionally, the crosslinked films displayed enhanced elasticity compared to pure PVA, with the elasticity order being diacid &gt; triacid &gt; tetraacid, possibly due to differences in available crosslinking sites among the crosslinkers.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"302 12","pages":"1867 - 1879"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142180968","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}

It is necessary to study the rheological properties of wet shotcrete using a nonlinear model due to the large error when utilizing the Bingham model to describe the concrete. The torque-velocity curve of wet shotcrete was determined using an ICAR rheometer in this study. The experimental data was fitted using the Bingham model, Herschel-Bulkley (H-B) model, and modified Bingham (M-B) model, resulting in the determination of the associated rheological parameters. The M-B model exhibits the most optimal fitting effect, followed by the H-B model and the Bingham model. As the shear rate reaches a specific value, the M-B model consistently represents a higher degree of divergence from linearity compared to the H-B model. Furthermore, considering the limitations of the H-B model which includes varying dimension parameters, this study enhanced the calculation approach for determining the equivalent plastic viscosity based on Larrard et al.’s (Mat Struct 31:494–498, 1998) research. Ultimately, the impact of the mix parameters on the yield stress and plastic viscosity of the three rheological models was analyzed through the range approach.

In the Supplementary Material of this manuscript, we provide a method for simultaneously determining the concentrations of these drugs in effluents using trivial UV–Vis spectrophotometric measurements. This method was used to build sorption isotherms for the competitive sorption of these two drugs. Competitive sorption is evident in the sorption isotherms in the form of two regimes: in the first stage, the surface is saturated with CG, and after a sharp discontinuity, adsorption is governed by DF. These ternary solution two-step isotherms can be mathematically described as composed of isotherms derived from the sorption of binary solutions on C-CHIT, with the discontinuity related to their Gibbs free energies of adsorption and lateral interaction parameters.

However, the traditional phenol–formaldehyde resin used in the petroleum field is all prepared by phenol and formaldehyde. In order to get rid of the dependence on fossil resources and make full use of renewable biomass resources, we used the abandoned walnut shells of the unique agricultural and forestry crops in Gansu province, which contains lignin partially replaced phenol to synthesize the new sulfonated lignin-based phenol–formaldehyde resin (SLPFR). The results showed that the optimum conditions for microwave polymers were polystyrene substitution rate of 20 wt%, decomposition temperature of 160 ℃, decommissioning time of 20 min, and sodium hydroxide concentration of 0.3 mol/L. Infrared spectroscopes and scanning telescopes have shown that after disintegration, there was an increased concentration of phosphorus, which had more active spots and was more suitable for replacing phenylphenol-synthetic formaldehyde resins. LC–MS indicated the molecular mass of SLPFR and the possible structure of molecules, indicating the successful synthesis of SLPFR. In this work, the aggregation behavior and dispersion stability of SLPFR were investigated from the composition of formation water. The effects of metal cations (Na⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺) on the dispersion stability of SLPFR in formation water were determined by turbidimetry, and the effects of metal cations on the particle size and zeta potential of the SLPFR system were measured by dynamic light scattering method and electrophoretic light scattering method. The stability of the aggregate structure of the SLPFR system was calculated by combining the fractal dimension. In this paper, the surfactant + SLPFR system and partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) + SLPFR system were designed for the specific conditions of oil reservoirs, and the effects of metal cations on the aggregation behavior and dispersion stability of these two systems were studied. Based on the above comprehensive analysis, aggregation models were constructed to describe the aggregation behavior and dispersion stability of the HPAM + surfactant + SLPFR system. This makes it possible to predict in real time the migration and plugging of SLPFR aggregates in formation water.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"302 11","pages":"1815 - 1830"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142180971","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}

The Dukhin number as a measure of surface conductivity is calculated according to Maxwell–Wagner-O’Konski theory. Zeta potentials were determined by means of colloid vibration current (CVI) and electrophoretic light scattering (ELS) methods. It has been found that neglecting surface conductivity in standard electrokinetic models can lead to large measurement errors of up to 100% with increasing particle volume fraction. In this study, the surface conductivity is now correctly taken into account by using the conductivities of the dispersion and the dispersion medium. Alternatively, this influence can also be considered using the Dukhin number. The zeta potentials resulting from the CVI measurement are then in excellent agreement with ELS reference measurements over a wide volume fraction range.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":520,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Polymer Science","volume":"302 11","pages":"1801 - 1813"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00396-024-05301-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142180972","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
