Multiply Interpenetrating Polymer Networks: Preparation, Mechanical Properties, and Applications

Interpenetrating Polymer Networks (IPN

Interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) refers to a type of elastomer in which two chemically distinct networks coexist, ideally having a structure that is homogeneous down to the segmental level [1]. The two components are present as co-continuous, interlocking networks (catenanes). This co-continuity can be achieved by kinetic retention of an initially miscible mixture of the monomers used to ...

Preparation and Characterization of Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) and Castor Oil Based Uralkyds Interpenetrating Polymer Networks

There is a growing interest in the development polymers based on renewable resources1-2. Polyurethanes constitute a kind of materials that can vary from rubbery to glassy thermoplastics from linear polymers to thermoset. This versatility can be further controlled in terms of processing and composition to fulfil a great versatility that permit the manufacturing of products ranging from expanded ...

Polymer-Graphene Nanocomposites: Preparation, Characterization, Properties, and Applications

Carbon the 6th element in the periodic tables has always remains a fascinating material to the researcher and technologist. Diamond, graphite, fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and newly dis‐ covered graphene are the most studied allotropes of the carbon family. The significance of the these material can be understand as the discovery of fullerene and graphene has been awarded noble prizes in the ye...
