The proposed approach involves the <i>in-situ</i> ring opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone, enabling the grafting of high molecular weight PCL chains (100 kg.mol⁻¹) onto CMHPG using a highly stable tin-based catalyst. The successful covalent association between the hydrophobic PCL chains and the hydrophilic CMHPG polysaccharide was confirmed. In addition, comprehensive structural (FTIR, DLS, contact angle and DRX), thermal (TGA and DSC), and mechanical characterizations were performed to investigate the synergistic effects between PCL and CMHPG. Notably, by precisely controlling the amount of CMHPG filler incorporated during synthesis, we achieved tailored performance in terms of film hydrophobicity and controlled biodegradability kinetics.

MPEG-PEI chains are insoluble in the temperature range of 4–20 °C in an aqueous medium containing 3.5 mM phosphate ion.

Variations in the PVDF films morphology, polymorphic composition, and supramolecular structure upon transformation were detected with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, wide-angle X-ray scattering, and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Broadband dielectric spectroscopy was used to ascertain a change in molecular mobility of the polymer chains during α→β phase transformation.

This finding confirms a proposal that γ-relaxators are located in the amorphous part of PVDF.

Direct ink writing (DIW) 3D printing technology is a rapid prototyping technology, with higher flexibility, faster manufacturing speed and lower manufacturing costs, is widely used in metal, ceramic and composite material molding. In this work, a ink system with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as binder and barium titanate (BTO) ceramic powder as piezoelectric filler was developed, the printing work of flexible porous BTO/PDMS composite material was completed. DIW dual-nozzle printing technology was applied to realise “electrode-piezoelectric-electrode” integrated flexible porous functional gradient structure composites in this study. The results show that the BTO/PDMS ink has the characteristics of shear thinning. When the nozzle diameter is 0.5 mm, the printing speed is 650 mm/min, and the BTO mass fraction is 80%, the flexible porous piezoelectric composite with high precision and complex structure is printed. By phase analysis of BTO/PDMS, it is found that the sample has the characteristic peak of BTO. The microstructure analysis shows that the surface of the sample has good structural fidelity and there are a few island-like pores in the interior. The mechanical test shows that the maximum tensile strength of the sample is 1.33 MPa, the elastic modulus is 1.72 MPa, the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient d₃₃ is 4.37 Pc/N, and the open circuit voltage VOC is 3.17 V.
