The possibility to incorporate diverse chemical species inside clays, especially swelling clay
minerals, has been known for more than two millennia, but the first examples of man-made …

Environmental pollution, especially air pollution, seriously endangers public health globally.
Due to severe air pollution, air filters still face many challenges, especially in terms of …

There was a hope that highly reactive nanoparticles would strongly facilitate crosslinking in
epoxy-amine systems. In this work, silica (SiO 2) nanoparticles are physically modified with …

Air pollution, especially solid particulate pollution, seriously endangers people's physical
and mental health. As a result, the performance and stability of air filtration membranes are …

As the most crucial choice in the heavy-duty protective coating industry, epoxy-based
coatings suffer from insufficient toughness and impermeableness. So in this study, a reliable …

A series of epoxy-polyamide based nanocomposites is developed utilizing hyperbranched
polymer (HBP)-modified nanoclay particles. To this aim, the pristine nanoclay is surface …

Graphene oxide (GO) nanoplatelets are synthesized via modified Hummer method. Then,
GO is surface functionalized using (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane, ie APTES, to substitute …

To enhance the physical and chemical properties and stability of magnetic MOFs, and to
improve their adsorption and reuse performance, an innovative modification strategy …

Hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) are globular macromolecules with nonuniformly grown
branches terminating in functional groups. Dendrimers are like HBPs but have a perfectly …

In this paper, isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization behaviour of neat polypropylene
(PP), blends of PP/maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MA), and PP/PP-g …
