Polyurethane with pendant carboxyl groups was synthesized by a two‐step reaction using methylene diphenyl diisocyanate as hard segments, polycarbonate diols as soft segments and...
Rosin was reacted with hydroxyethyl methacrylate to produce a macromonomer. This macromonomer was used to partly replace styrene for the novel preparation of polymer microspheres with divinylbenzene...
Biodegradable polymer composites, typically based on biodegradable polymer matrices and natural‐organic fillers, are gaining rising interest and importance over the last few years. Several...
Single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) dispersed in N‐methylpyrrolidone (NMP) were functionalized by addition of polystyryl radicals from 2,2,6,6‐tetramethyl‐1‐piperidinyloxy‐ended polystyrene...
This article focuses on the synthesis and characterization of polyhydroxyurethanes (PHUs) obtained from the reaction between bis[(2‐oxo‐1,3‐dioxolan‐4‐yl)methyl]benzene‐1,4‐dicarboxylate (DCter) and...
Germicidal nanocomposites based on metallocene isotactic polypropylene (iPP) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles have been prepared at a constant TiO2 content of 2 wt%. Different quantities of...
This mini review gives an overview of the synthesis of polyurethanes and polyesters with pendant hydroxyl groups performed mainly in our group. Significant for the synthesis of most of these polymers...
An epoxy‐anhydride formulation used for the coating of electrical devices was modified with a commercially available hyperbranched poly(ester‐amide), Hybrane™ S2200, in order to improve the thermal...
