Reversible-deactivation radical polymerisation (RDRP) techniques are essential in modern
polymer chemistry. Over the years, they have become not only fantastic lab tools for the easy …

Many polymer materials are brittle and hence susceptible to fracture, especially in the
presence of notches, scratches, or internal defects. This limits the application of polymer …

The flammability and brittleness of epoxy resin (EP) restrict its application in advanced
manufacturing. One promising strategy is to develop a flame retardant with high efficiency …

In this study, the triblock copolymer poly (methyl methacrylate)-b-poly (butyl acrylate)-b-poly
(methyl methacrylate)(MAM) was used to modify bisphenol A epoxy resin to improve its …

The toughening performance of hybridized core-shell rubber particles and block copolymers
on bulk epoxy and epoxy based carbon fibre reinforced composites was investigated. The …

Using block copolymers to improve the mechanical properties of materials was a promising
method, and the effect was positively correlated with the aspect ratio of the nanostructures …

In the last few years, polymer materials scientists have put a lot of effort into the design of
polymer‐based materials, tailored from the nanometer scale via the introduction of block …

Block ionomer complexes based on sulfonated polystyrene-block-poly (ethylene-ran-
butylene)-block-polystyrene (SSEBS) and a tertiary amine-terminated poly (ε-caprolactone) …

Addition of silica brings a significant improvement in flexural strength and toughness of
epoxy thermoset yet; these properties suffers a huge change when an amphiphilic BCP and …

Phase structures and mechanical properties of epoxy/acryl triblock copolymer alloys using
several curing agents were studied. PMMA-b-PnBA-b-PMMA triblock copolymers …
