In the present work, two kinds of hyperbranched polyesters with different lengths of alkyl-terminated groups (octadecyl-terminated hyperbranched polyester HBP-C18, and hexyl-terminated hyperbranched polyester HBP-C6) were incorporated into iPP through melt-blending, respectively. Then the blends were annealed at different temperatures. Polarized optical microscopy and dynamic rheology results reveal that HBP-C18 only performs the function of lubricant on iPP. As a consequence, the incorporation of HBP-C18 weakens the impact strength of iPP, and further annealing treatment results in sharp depression of the impact toughness of iPP/HBP-C18 blend. On the contrary, dramatically enhanced impact toughness of iPP could be achieved by the incorporation of HBP-C6 and further annealing treatment. After being annealed at 120 °C for 3 h, the impact strength of iPP/HBP-C6 reaches 16.0 kJ m⁻², 119% higher than that of its unannealed counterpart, almost 186% higher than that of annealed iPP, and even elevated by 400% in contrast to that of unannealed iPP. Introducing a small amount of HBP-C6 with dual roles of plasticizer and pore-forming agent as well as further annealing treatment not only promote prominently the mobility of chain segments in the amorphous region of the iPP matrix, but also induce the formation of massive microvoids, giving rise to intense plastic deformation under the impact load condition, and therefore pronouncedly elevated impact toughness of iPP could be obtained. This work could provide a novel and effective strategy for iPP toughening.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":601,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Polymer Journal","volume":"66 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142253752","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}

Through SEM analyses, it is observed that enhanced filler dispersion and interfacial bonding between the PLA matrix and fillers with POE-<i>g</i>-Mah result in improved composite compatibility. The rheological percolation threshold of the rice husk is determined above 30% for the samples containing only PLA and rice husk; however, it is determined between 20 and 30% for the samples containing the POE-<i>g</i>-Mah. The incorporation of POE-<i>g</i>-Mah into the polymer phase causes much higher modulus values compared to its counterparts with the same filler concentration. The DMA results revealed significant enhancements in the modulus of elasticity and damping properties when rice husk and glass fiber were added. The composite with 20% (by weight) rice husk and 5% (by weight) compatibilizer doubled its elastic modulus at 40 °C and increased fivefold to 65 °C with an additional 15% (by weight) glass fiber. This modification substantially reduced energy dissipation and improved damping performance and dimensional stability, which was also evidenced by a decrease in thermal expansion.

Control factors included material (NC), feed rate (f), cutting speed (Vc), drill bit (D), were considered and an appropriate experimental design was made. Thrust force (Fc), cutting tool temperature (T), and delamination factor (Df) were determined as quality characteristics. Delamination in the holes was measured using imaging analysis, and a two-dimensional (2D) delamination factor based on the nominal diameter was calculated. As the nanoclay ratio increased, the Fc increased by over 50% due to the increase in friction and material strength. Conversely, as the drill tip angle decreased, a relative decrease was observed in the Fc and T values. According to the quality characteristics, NC was found to be the most effective control factor, with 65.53% and 70.74% for Fz and T, respectively, while D was found to be the most effective control factor with 41.23% for Df. Using Gray Relational Analysis, the optimum drilling parameters were found to be a pure composite material, a drill bit with a 90° tip angle, 140 m/min cutting speed, and a 0.04 mm/rev feed rate.

Characteristics of the prepared composite variants were analyzed to figure out the influence of the novel fibers, derived by sodium hydroxide (NaOH) retting from the stem of the inedible plant with the common name—touch-me-not, which grows abundantly in tropical wastelands across the world. The physical attributes of the biocomposites accounted for in the study were density, void content, moisture content, and water absorption together with thickness swelling tendency. The maximum water absorption and thickness swelling of the composite samples, soaked in distilled water for 30 days, were recorded as 7.28% and 13.2%, respectively; both parameters increased with an increment in fibers loading in the composites. PLA composites with fiber content of 10% recorded the optimum tensile and flexural properties; tensile strength and modulus were 20 MPa and 6902 MPa and flexural strength and modulus were 28 MPa and 4758 MPa, respectively. The inclusion of MP fibers enhanced thermal stability of the PLA composites, indicated by thermogravimetric (TG) and derivative thermogravimetric (DTG) analyses, with a maximum degradation temperature of 293 °C for 15 wt% fiber loading. Biodegradability test results of the composites displayed appreciable weight loss at the end of 90 days, with the highest of 40.96% for the sample containing 15 wt% fiber, which was favorable for the end-of-life disposal and seamless assimilation by nature.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>","PeriodicalId":601,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Polymer Journal","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209534","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 best-oxidized neem gum determined the minimum gelation time (3 min). The injectable hydrogel's syringeability (~ 99%), porosity (47–71%), self-healing ability, and gel content (58–76%) were evaluated. Characterization techniques, including FTIR and ¹H NMR, confirmed the synthesis, and FESEM showed the morphology of the injectable hydrogel (pore size ~ 80 to 120 µm).

The swelling ratio was assessed for dry and gel forms of injectable hydrogels in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) at pH 5.5, 7.4, and 8.5. The swelling ratio decreased as the pH increased (5.5–7.4) and then increased at pH 8.5 for all synthesized injectable hydrogels (IHs) in dry and gel forms. For the release assay, an antibiotic model drug, ciprofloxacin HCl (Cipro), was loaded in situ, and the drug release behavior of dry and gel forms of injectable hydrogel was compared within all pH ranges. The drug release kinetics were estimated using the Korsmeyer–Peppas model. Cytotoxicity evaluation using L-929 fibroblast cell lines, antibacterial assay, and hydrolytic degradability (20–65%) in phosphate buffer saline at pH 7.4 was also conducted.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":601,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Polymer Journal","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142253755","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 hand layup method was used for manufacturing composites, incorporating DSF components with weight percentages varying from 0 to 15% and graphite ranging from 0 to 9% (by wt). The study aimed to investigate how the introduction of hybrid filler affects both the mechanical characteristics and thermal resistance of the composites. A set of experiments was carried out to assess the mechanical properties of composites created by combining graphite powder with DSF. Tensile strength, flexural strength, impact resistance, and hardness are among the qualities. The optimal mechanical properties of the GH–DSF–VE composite were achieved with a date seed infill of 10% (by wt) and graphite of 9% (by wt). The ultimate tensile strength of the material measured approximately 43.2 MPa. The composite materials that were developed demonstrated an ultimate flexural strength of around 136 MPa.

They have a spherical architecture and unique properties, such as nanoscale macromolecules (2–100 nm), high solubility, the presence of several branched chains, spatial voids and a large number of end functional groups. Various classes of hyperbranched polymers in the last 10 years such as polyalkanes, polyarylenes, polyhalides, organometallic polymers, polyethers, polyesters, nitrogen-containing and polyheterocyclic compounds are reviewed. These polymers can be readily obtained under mild conditions by polymerization, polycondensation or polycoupling reactions of polyfunctional monomers. The main characteristics confirming the hyperbranched structure of polymers are: low molecular weight, dispersity, medium degree of branching, large number of end functional groups, nanoscale macromolecules, three-dimensional architecture, presence of glass transition temperature, high solubility in various organic solvents, and low viscosity of polymer solutions. Due to their adaptable structures and special properties, hyperbranched polymers are widely used as hybrid materials and composites for structural applications, coatings, adhesives, membranes, catalysts, flame retardants, plasticizers, and light-emitting materials. The hyperbranched structure combined with low toxicity allows their use as highly effective nanoscale anticancer and bactericidal drugs, as well as contrast reagents for magnetic resonance tomography. The availability of technologically significant methods for the synthesis of hyperbranched polymers of various types makes it possible to carry out their industrial production on a scale sufficient for practical application in solving modern problems of biomedical chemistry and in many other branches of science and industry.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":601,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Polymer Journal","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209539","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}

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and rheology analysis helped establish the parameter ranges. The optimal injection conditions were determined to be as temperature of 155 °C, speed of 80 mm/s, holding pressure of 83 bar, holding time of 9 s, and injection pressure of 132 bar, resulting in an ideal green part density of 4.892 g/cm³.

The synthesized composite (AMNP/LS-PEI) was subjected to characterization through multiple analytical techniques, namely FTIR, XRD, BET, TG, VSM, XPS, FE-SEM, EDS, HRTEM, and TEM. Following the synthesis, a thorough investigation was conducted into the composite’s adsorption capabilities for methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) dyes through batch adsorption, taking into account pivotal factors, including pH, contact time, solution concentration, and temperature. The experimental data suggested that the adsorption of MO and MB onto AMNP/LS-PEI was in good accordance with the Langmuir isotherm model. The AMNP/LS-PEI demonstrated maximum adsorption capacities (<i>Q</i>_max) of 482.7 mg g⁻¹ for MO and 375.6 mg g⁻¹ for MB, respectively. The MB and MO-adsorption kinetics onto AMNP/LS-PEI closely fit the pseudo-second-order model. Furthermore, the thermodynamic analysis revealed that the adsorption process of dyes onto AMNP/LS-PEI was an endothermic one. Upon six adsorption–desorption cycles, AMNP/LS-PEI demonstrated sustained adsorption capacity, achieving removal rates of 81.3% for MB and 77.1% for MO, respectively. The potential advantage for practical applications lied in its highly selective adsorption capability for mixed solutions of MB and MO. Specifically, at a pH of 4, MO was preferentially adsorbed, whereas at a pH of 8, MB was favored for adsorption. In addition, the adsorption mechanism of AMNP/LS-PEI toward dyes was explored using FTIR and XPS, and was found to be mainly ascribed to the electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding interaction, and cation exchange.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>","PeriodicalId":601,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Polymer Journal","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209538","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}
