Sustainable polyesters via direct functionalization of lignocellulosic sugars

Maxime Alexandre Clément Hedou, François Maréchal, Véronique Michaud, Yves Leterrier, Harm-Anton Klok, Jeremy Luterbacher, Adrien Julien Demongeot, Graham Reid Dick

The development of sustainable plastics from abundant renewable feedstocks has been limited by the complexity and efficiency of their production, as well as their lack of competitive material properties. Here we demonstrate the direct transformation of the ...

Ultralow secondary electron emission and improved vacuum surface insulation of polyimide with scalable nanocomposite coating

Chao Wang, Guang-Yu Sun

Polymers with high surface electric insulation capability are greatly demanded in various electrical devices operating in vacuum ambient. Low secondary electron emission (SEE) is favorable to mitigate vacuum flashover by inhibiting the SEE avalanche across ...

Multiscale microshaping of functionally graded polymer-derived SiCN ceramics

Lorenz Hagelüken

Polymer-derived ceramics (PDCs) exhibit excellent properties and are compatible with many shaping techniques due to the liquid character of the preceramic polymers (PCPs). Furthermore, their properties are adjustable by modifying the precursor composition ...

Mechanical reinforcement and memory effect of strain-induced soft segment crystals in thermoplastic polyurethane-urea elastomers

Nicolas Candau, Oguzhan Oguz, Adrien Julien Demongeot

An amorphous poly(urethane-urea) copolymer composed of 70 wt% poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) soft segments (SS) (Mw = 2000 g mol−1) and 30 wt% cycloaliphatic hard segments (HS) was subjected to in-situ X-Rays during tensile deformation. Mechanical hardening at ...

Charge transfer across C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds stabilizes oil droplets in water

Sylvie Roke, Saranya Pullanchery Sankara Narayanan, Sergey Kulik, Benjamin Rehl

The hydrophobic-water interface plays a key role in biological interactions. However, both the hydrophobic-water interfacial molecular structure and the origin of the negative zeta potential of hydrophobic droplets in water are heavily contested. We report ...

Scattering Map for the Vlasov–Poisson System

Klaus Martin Widmayer

We construct (modified) scattering operators for the Vlasov–Poisson system in three dimensions, mapping small asymptotic dynamics as t→−∞ to asymptotic dynamics as t→+∞. The main novelty is the construction of modified wave operators, but we also obtain a ...
