Polymer components capable of self-healing can rapidly be manufactured by injecting the monomer (ε-caprolactam), activator and catalyst mixed with a small amount magnetic nanoparticles into steel mould. The anionic polymerisation produces polymer component capturing in dispersed state. Any microcracks developed this nanocomposite healed exposing it to an external alternating field. Due magnetoc...

a new method was used to prepare abs/pa6 blends by in situ polymerization and compatibilization method. in this process, ε-caprolactam monomer was polymerized in presence of abs via activated anionic polymerization to produce pa6. the main ingredients of the reaction mixture included: monomer ()ε-caprolactam), catalyst na-caprolactamate), microactivator hdi)( and macro-activator sma)(. then, in...

Lysine is a key raw material in the chemical industry owing to its sustainability, mature fermentation process and unique structure, besides being an important nutritional supplement. Multiple commodities can be produced from lysine, which thus inspired various catalytic strategies for production of these lysine-based chemicals their downstream applications functional polymer production. In thi...
