The batching process, which includes softening, lubricating, and conditioning, is applied in fibers, such as woven jute and non-woven manila hemp. This process is employed in the development of woven jute/epoxy, non-woven manila hemp/epoxy, and combined woven jute/non-woven manila hemp/epoxy composites to investigate their impact on their mechanical characteristics. Through various characterization methods, it was found that significant enhancements were observed in hybrid composites, particularly in the woven jute/non-woven manila hemp/epoxy composite. These enhancements include a maximum tensile strength of 52 MPa, a tensile modulus of 1.67 GPa, an impact strength of 9.6 kJ/m<sup>2</sup>, and a flexural strength of 90 MPa. The observed improvements are attributed to the influence of a hard chain copolymer, with a glass transition temperature of 25.05 °C determined from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves. Fiber surface treatment using a semi-continuous seeded emulsion polymerization method significantly impacts properties, enhancing fiber–matrix adhesion and mechanical performance, resulting in a 14% increase in both tensile and flexural modulus compared to untreated composites. Analytical techniques such as emulsion particle-size measurements using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and SEM further support these findings.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>","PeriodicalId":601,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Polymer Journal","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209543","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}

This study produced and characterized a novel bone healing material. First, we explained how three-armed polylactic acid (3s-PLA) was created in supercritical carbon dioxide (ScCO<sub>2</sub>) and utilized as a matrix material. Following that, we described how the solution blending approach was employed to create three-armed polylactic acid/chitosan/nanohydroxyapatite (3s-PLA/CS/nHA) composites. The composites were then drug-loaded with prednisone acetate as a model drug utilizing the supercritical impregnation technique. Ultimately, the Ritger-Peppas model was substantially followed by the drug release of the drug-loaded composites when the in vitro drug-release kinetics of the drug-loaded materials were investigated. The porous structure of 3s-PLA was demonstrated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) hydrogen spectroscopy. Morphologic studies using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed the homogeneous distribution of drug in the matrix of the mixtures as well as the porous structure of 3s-PLA and 3s-PLA/CS/nHA. The hydrophilicity of 3s-PLA/CS/nHA was examined by the use of water contact angle (WCA), revealing that the material in question has a hydrophilic water contact angle of 45.69°. Furthermore, research was conducted using one-way tests and investigations to characterize in vitro drug-release carrier materials under various drug conditions and temperatures.

All membranes modified with Mg–Al LDH hydrophilic nanoparticles showed a lower water contact angle and higher porosity as compared to the neat PC membrane. The FESEM micrographs of the cross section of the membrane indicated that the inclusion of CO<sub>3</sub>.Mg–Al LDH nanoparticles in the PC matrix led to the removal of the sponge-like layer of the membrane. The results of the petroleum refinery wastewater filtration experiment revealed that the irreversible fouling ratio (IFR) value decreased from 66.7% for the neat PC membrane to 10.5% and 19.1% for PC/CO<sub>3</sub> Mg–Al LDH-1.5 and PC/NO<sub>3</sub> Mg–Al LDH-1.5 nanocomposite membranes, respectively. The membrane separation performance, measured by the total organic carbon (TOC) indicated that filtrates from all nanocomposite membranes had lower TOC values compared to the neat PC membrane.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":601,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Polymer Journal","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141941260","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}
