Insulating polymeric foams have an important role to play in increasing energy efficiency
and therefore contributing to combating climate change. Their development in recent years …

High porosity solids, such as plastic foams and aerogels, are thermally insulating. Their
insulation performance strongly depends on their pore structure, which dictates the heat …

Worldwide, high plastic consumption leads to huge waste production. Macro and
microplastic litter affects habitats everywhere, but especially marine environments …

The chemical composition, density, and modulus of PU foam was examined as a function of
processing temperature (25° C, 45° C, and 85° C). Degradation of uretoneimine cross-links …

This article presents a novel type of flame-retardant biohybrid foam with good insulation
properties based on wheat gluten and silica, the latter polymerized in situ from hydrolysed …

Wood characterized by desired mechanical properties and wood joining material is
essential for creating wooden structures. The polymer adhesives are suitable for such …

Heat transfer continues to be a major field of interest to engineering and scientific
researchers, as well as designers, developers, and manufacturers. The wealth of …

The aim of the study was to detect the influence of nitrogen pressure on the rheological
properties and structure of PA66 GF30 thick-walled parts, produced by means of …

The objective of this research is to prepare rigid polyurethane (PU) foams from α-
phellandrene, a biobased compound. Two types of polyols were synthesized by reacting α …

Freeze-dried wheat gluten foams were evaluated with respect to their thermal and fire-
retardant properties, which are important for insulation applications. The thermal properties …
