Promoted formation of stereocomplex in enantiomeric poly(lactic acid)s induced by cellulose nanofibers

Qian Ren et al.

Summary: The addition of cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) significantly reduced the half-crystallization time of the PLLA/PDLA blend, and when 3% modified CNFs were incorporated, almost exclusively SC crystallites were formed with no HC crystallite presence. This was speculated to be due to enhanced interchain molecular interactions between CNFs and PLA, presenting a feasible and efficient method for producing high-performance PLA materials with exclusively SC crystallites.

Fabrication of super-hydrophilic and highly open-porous poly (lactic acid) scaffolds using supercritical carbon dioxide foaming

Qian Ren et al.

Summary: This study successfully prepared porous PLA/PEG scaffolds with high expansion ratio, good hydrophilicity, and cytocompatibility. The introduction of PEG improved the foaming behavior of PLA and promoted the formation of opening cells. The obtained scaffolds exhibited high open-cell content, super-hydrophilicity, and enhanced cell proliferation, making them suitable for tissue engineering applications.

Preparation and properties of thermoplastic polyurethane foams with bimodal structure based on TPU/PDMS blends

Bozhen Wu et al.

Summary: Aiming to fabricate polymer foams with bimodal structures remains challenging in both industrial and academic fields. By mixing PDMS into TPU and utilizing the foaming dynamics difference between the two materials, foams with distinct bimodal structures were successfully prepared. These bimodal structure foams exhibit excellent compressive strength and modulus, as well as higher sound insulation compared to foams with uniform structures.
