All-polystyrene nanocomposites have been proved as an ideal model system due to the identical chemistry of the nanoparticles and the polymer matrix. Previous neutron scattering measurements have confirmed that the nanoparticles are homogeneously dispersed in the polymer matrix when the radius of the nanoparticles is smaller than the radius of gyration of the polymer chains.

AbstractThe crystallization kinetics behaviors of PVA (poly (vinyl alcohol))/TP (tea polyphenol) composites were studied. Results showed that the addition of TP component in PVA formed composites would reduce the crystallinity (%), leading to the formation of a lower Avrami exponent, n. Under the fixed cooling rate condition, the n values of Avrami and α values of Mo are both higher for the above composites with TP ingredient at 10–20%.

An efficient alkoxy-substituted polymer acceptor for efficient all-polymer solar cells with low voltage loss and versatile photovoltaic applications†
All-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) have emerged as promising candidates for practical applications owing to their excellent stability and mechanical durability. Despite these merits, the device performance of all-PSCs still falls behind those based on small-molecule acceptors.

AbstractWith the increasing demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable materials, research on cellulose/bio-based polyester composites has received increasing attention. However, the hydrophilicity of cellulose remains a major factor in its poor interaction with hydrophobic bio-based polyester.

Ultrafast hydrogen production in boron/oxygen-codoped graphitic carbon nitride revealed by nonadiabatic dynamics simulations†
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4 or GCN) shows promise in photocatalytic water splitting, despite facing the challenge of rapid electron–hole recombination. In this study, we investigated the influence of boron/oxygen codoping on the photocatalytic performance of GCN systems for hydrogen generation.
