A biosourced Janus molecule was used as a coupling agent between silica and unsaturated
polymer chains in an elastomeric composite suitable for tire compounds with low energy …

The solubility parameters of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was tuned via their
chemical modification with pyrrole compounds (PyCs), by means of a simple and …

The ultimate properties and resistance to fracture of nanocomposites based on poly (1, 4-cis-
isoprene) from Hevea Brasiliensis (natural rubber, NR) and a high surface area nanosized …

Pyrroles are important compounds present in biological systems, used for drug synthesis
and in material chemistry. A typical strategy for the pyrrolic ring formation is centered on the …

Carbon black (CB) is among the most important chemicals in the world and it is
predominantly used as a pigment or reinforcing agent. The compatibility between CB and …

A new polyether (PE) was prepared from a biobased Janus molecule, 2-(2, 5-dimethyl-1H-
pyrrol-1-yl)-1, 3-propanediol (serinol pyrrole, SP). SP was synthesized with very high yield …

In this chapter, functionalized sp 2 carbon allotropes, as reinforcing fillers for rubber
compounds, are discussed. This topic would probably require a whole encyclopedia if …

Controlled functionalization of graphene layers is one of the most important research
objectives in the material chemistry. A well established procedure is the oxidation with …

N-Pyrrole-based heterocycles are present in many natural products,[1] medicinal agents,[2]
and functional materials,[3, 4] therefore substantial attention has been paid to develop …

Health and environmental impacts of antimicrobials are becoming more and more relevant
nowadays, so as the research for new and effective antimicrobial nanomaterials. Our thesis …
