The article underlines and discusses the state-of-the-art accomplishments in the catalytic
conversion of glycerol (1, 2, 3-propanetriol) to fuels and value-added chemicals in the past …

Incorporation of flexible chains into epoxy adhesives facilitates toughening but usually
poses an opposite effect on strengthening. Herein, by combining hydroxyl-terminated …

Research into toughening an epoxy resin using biobased modifiers without trade-offs in its
modulus, mechanical strength, and other properties still remains a challenge. In this article …

In engineering applications, fracture toughness is an essential requirement that determines
the life of a material. Epoxy polymers are widely used in fibre-reinforced composite …

Epoxy resins are important matrices for composites. Carboxylic nitrile-butadiene nano-
rubber (NR) particles are employed to improve the tensile strength and fracture toughness at …

In this work, we developed a strategy to balance the toughness and thermal resistance of
epoxy composites by incorporating the multi-scale rubber particles. Two types of rubber ie …

Bio‐based epoxy resins with low‐dielectric constant, low viscosity and excellent mechanical
properties have great significance for the future of advanced electronic and microelectronic …

As typical anisotropic materials combining the entropy elasticity of an elastomer with the self-
organization of rigid mesogens, liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) possess the emerging …

A novel phosphorus-nitrogen containing polymer wrapped carbon nanotubes (CNT-PD-x, x
denoted the feed ratio) were facilely prepared via strong π-π stacking interactions between …

It is a longstanding bottleneck for epoxies applied in high-tech fields to obtain integrated
performances, including excellent thermal mechanical and stability properties …
