Hydrophobic functionalization of cellulose nanocrystals for enhanced corrosion resistance of polyurethane nanocomposite coatings

Tizazu H. Mekonnen et al.

Summary: In this study, a stiff, hydrophobic, and corrosion protective polyurethane nanocomposite coating was fabricated by incorporating surface modified cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), which improved thermal properties and material wettability of the modified CNC. The incorporation of modified CNC in PU not only improved thermomechanical properties but also enhanced interfacial adhesion between the nanoparticle and the PU matrix, leading to reduced water absorption properties of the PU composites. Salt spray and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies exhibited better anticorrosion behaviors of the fabricated nanocomposite as compared to PU, making the CNC modification through silanization a robust and appealing material for polymer composite applications.

Starch-based isocyanate- and non-isocyanate polyurethane hybrids: A review on synthesis, performance and biodegradation

Nyok Ling Tai et al.

Summary: Starch has garnered significant interest in the development of biodegradable bioplastics due to its impressive physicochemical properties when used in polyurethane (PU) composites. Despite the hydrophilic nature of starch limiting its dispersion in hydrophobic PU matrices, strategies are being developed to improve compatibility and enhance the biodegradation characteristics of the final PU products. Advances in the synthesis of starch-NIPU hybrids are also being explored to further boost biodegradability of PUs.
