In this study, a polyphenylene oxide (PPO)-based covalent cross-linking network system was designed as a potential substrate material for high-speed microwave devices. Utilizing PPO with low dielectric constant and excellent thermal stability as matrix resin, thermoplastic elastomer styrene–butadiene–styrene copolymer (SBS) as toughening agent, and small molecule triallyl isocyanurate (TAIC) as active crosslinker enhanced the interfacial compatibility of the modified PPO (mPPO)-based composites system. The curing behavior, dielectric properties and thermal stability of cured mPPO systems were studied, and the impact of the PPO to TAIC ratio on the structure and performance of the cured mPPO systems were further discussed. When the mass fraction of PPO/SBS/TAIC components in the mPPO system is 40/30/30, the sample exhibits a low dielectric constant (<i>D</i>_<i>k</i> = 2.49@10 GHz), moisture absorption (0.37%) and excellent thermal stability. In addition, it also maintains good bending strength and solvent resistance, indicating significant potential for applications in the field of electronic appliances.

Two-dimensional transition metal carbides, carbon-nitrides and nitrides (MXenes), especially nitride-based MXenes with high electrical conductivity and biocompatibility, show potential for antioxidant applications. However, the synthesis of nitrogen-based MXenes has technical challenges, such as the high formation energy and low M–N bond cohesion energy. In this work, Ti₂N-MXenes, which have a two-dimensional structure with a complete Ti–N framework and rich N-containing functional groups, were successfully synthesized via a simple HF-KF immersing process. The synthesized nanosheets show outstanding scavenging efficiency against strong oxidants (KMnO₄), DPPH· radicals, and ROS (including superoxide and hydroxyl radicals). Furthermore, by analyzing the structural transformation and electron transfer during the interaction of MXenes with DPPH·, it was found that the efficient radical scavenging ability stems from the inherent electron-richness, hydrogen-donating and electron-transferring capabilities. This innovative synthesis method and the remarkable antioxidant activity of Ti₂N-MXenes offer a promising prospect for the application of nitride-based MXenes in various fields, such as biomedicine, environmental protection and material science.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":645,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials Science","volume":"60 18","pages":"7507 - 7516"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144073831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, bioplastic films were prepared from polybutylene adipate-<i>co</i>-terephthalate (PBAT), polylactic acid (PLA), and their blends using a blown film extrusion process. The effects on the samples were investigated for dosages of PLA and a compatibilizing agent (trade name: MBAX) on the melt flowability, surface morphology, mechanical properties, thermal behavior, chemical structure, and residue overall migration. Based on the results, the addition and the concentration of the compatibilizer effectively decreased the melt flowability of the PBAT/PLA compounds. In addition, the interfacial adhesion between the plasticized PBAT domain and the PLA matrix was enhanced by having a smooth surface. Based on the results of FTIR, there were no chemical reactions between the PBAT and PLA molecules, or with the compatibilizer within the blended films. The plasticized PLA/PBAT blown film prepared utilizing a blown film extrusion process had improved mechanical and thermal resistance. Furthermore, the addition of compatibilizer considerably increased the crystallinity of the PLA composites filaments up to approximately 160% compared with the neat PBAT film. The residue overall migration results for the neat PBAT and PLA films were within the regulated levels set by the European Food Safety Authority, suggesting that the developed products were appropriate for use in food packaging. On the other hand, the composite films at a ratio of PBAT-to-PLA-to-CaCO₃-to-MBAX of 70:30:10:1 had residue overall migration greater than 10 mg dm⁻², exceeding the regulations for food packing which was probably due to the CaCO₃, with its hydrophilicity, dissolving within the blended films and reacting with the acetic acid in the food simulated solutions to produce calcium acetate, leading to migration into the food simulants. The main conclusion was that the PBAT/PLA blends, especially those containing 30%PLA, showed great potential to replace petroleum-based plastics and were suitable for film packaging applications.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":645,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials Science","volume":"60 17","pages":"7410 - 7427"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143930025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their mechanical performance is inherently limited, and conventional drying techniques such as freeze-drying (FD) and supercritical drying (SCD) are both time-consuming and energy-intensive, posing significant challenges for large-scale industrial applications. Atmospheric pressure drying (APD) has emerged as a simple and cost-effective alternative, demonstrating considerable potential in the fabrication of aerogel fibers. In this study, chitosan was incorporated during the dissolution stage to reinforce the cellulose framework. Following solvent exchange, the material was subjected to APD in an oven, resulting in the fabrication of low-shrinkage chitosan-reinforced cellulose aerogel fibers (CKAF). The porosity of CKAF can be controlled between 38 and 75% by selecting solvents with different surface tensions for solvent exchange and adjusting the affinity between the solvent and the CKAF framework during APD. The shrinkage of atmospheric pressure drying chitosan-reinforced cellulose aerogel fibers (APD-CKAF) with a chitosan content of 10% to cellulose was 11%, which was only 1.9% higher than that of FD (9.1%). However, the pore structure of the APD-CKAF is compact and uniform, with a pore size distribution ranging from 0 to 48 nm, primarily centered around 20 nm, and a porosity of approximately 75%. The APD-CKAF exhibits superior mechanical strength (22.1 MPa, a 16.3% improvement over the FD samples) and elongation at break (55.1%, a 111.5% increase compared with the FD samples). The APD-CKAF exhibits excellent thermal insulation properties over a wide temperature range.
