Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) have found use in a wide range of applications, such as
adhesives, elastomers, coatings, fibers, and in additive manufacturing techniques such as …

This short review article focuses on significant developments made in the pursuit of well-
defined graft copolymers over the past decade or so. The state-of-the-art for synthesis of the …

Fully sustainable poly [HPMC-g-(PMVL-b-PLLA)] graft block copolymer thermoplastics were
prepared from hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), β-methyl-δ-valerolactone (MVL), and …

Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are ever sought using a simple robust synthetic approach.
Widely successful first-generation TPEs rely on microphase-separated ABA triblock …

As the need for renewable and degradable alternative plastics grows, efforts have been
made to develop biobased polymer architectures with tunable properties. We developed the …

Two series of graft copolymers, cellulose-g-poly (n-butyl acrylate-co-dehydroabietic ethyl
methacrylate)(Cell-gP (BA-co-DAEMA)) and cellulose-g-poly (lauryl methacrylate-co …

Cellulose-rosin based thermoplastic elastomers with UV absorption properties were
fabricated by a combination of rosin, poly (butyl acrylate)(PBA) and ethyl cellulose (EC) via …

Graft polymers, including comb and bottlebrush polymers, have emerged as a topological
molecular design for tailoring elastic material properties, relying on structural parameters …

To improve the toughness and processability of poly (lactic acid)(PLA), a branched
multiblock polymer was prepared from d, l-lactide and ε-decalactone. A hydroxy telechelic …

Cellulose-based thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) have attracted considerable attention
because of their rigid backbone, good mechanical properties, renewable nature and …
