This study chooses octadecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (OTAC) as the surfactant to produce epoxidized natural rubber by in situ method. The product can be synthesized at higher dry rubber content and temperature rapidly than OP-10 can. Therefore, the product has a higher reaction rate and epoxidation degree. Meanwhile, the molecular structure of OTAC remains intact during synthesizing, affo...

Novel Environmentally Friendly...
Interfacial bonding between aramid fiber (AF) and rubber is crucial to the performance of composites. However, the widely used resorcinol-formaldehyde-latex (RFL) dipping system is not environmentally friendly due to the significant use of formaldehyde. In this study, a new environmentally friendly dipping system was designed and prepared. In this system, the synthesized anionic waterborne polyure...

Stretchable and Sustainable Po...
In this paper, a series of biobased ionic conductors based on poly(thioctic esters) (PolyTEs) are developed through the lithium salt-catalyzed thermal polymerization of thioctic esters (TE). Lithium salts simultaneously act as TE polymerization catalysts and conductive components in the resulting ionic conductors. The applications of synthesized ionic conductors as ionic sensors and thermoelectric...
