Summary: This study focuses on the preparation of a biodegradable composite film from wheat straw by transforming holocellulose into carboxymethylated holocellulose (CMHCS) through catalytic reaction. By optimizing the carboxymethylation of holocellulose, a high degree of substitution (DS) was achieved. The mechanical properties of the CMHCS-derived composite film were significantly improved compared to the unmodified holocellulose-based film, and the biodegradability of the composite film was assessed and showed good performance.

Summary: A chemically functionalized PSA (f-PSA) with enhanced and phototunable underwater adhesion has been developed by incorporating an underwater adhesion enhancer (mussel-inspired catechol) and a photo-responsive functionality (anthracene) into a standard acrylic PSA matrix. This synergistic coupling secures sufficient interfacial molecular interactions and leads to enhanced underwater adhesion, while the efficient dimerization of anthracene via light-triggered cycloaddition facilitates the viscoelastic property of f-PSA, rendering it phototunable. The f-PSA is envisioned to open up more opportunities for applications such as underwater manipulation, transfer printing, and medical adhesives.

Summary: Studies on renewable polymers have shown that starch can be used as a replacement for petroleum-based components to produce biodegradable films with plastic-like qualities. This study introduces the use of taro peel starch (TPS) for the first time in producing such films using the casting technique. The effects of different concentrations of TPS and glycerol on the properties of the TPS films were investigated, and their optimized values were determined using the response surface method. The TPS films exhibited desirable physico-mechanical and water barrier properties, making them a promising option for food packaging.

Summary: The challenge lies in developing solvent-free and biodegradable pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs). By introducing polar groups onto poly(propylene carbonate)s (PPC) and combining it with degradation, a series of biodegradable and solvent-free chlorosulfonated poly(propylene carbonate)s (CSPPCs) with different molecular weights have been obtained. The balance between molecular weight and polar group content is crucial for adhesive properties.

Summary: This study examined the properties of a new active packaging film developed by adding mulberry leaves polysaccharides (MLP) into carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). The addition of MLP increased the thickness and roughness of the films, while decreasing the moisture content, water vapor permeability, and swelling degree. Increasing the concentration of MLP improved the mechanical properties of the films and enhanced UV light dispersion. The films exhibited good inter-molecular interaction between CMC matrix and MLP, as demonstrated by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The prepared films showed excellent thermal stability, antioxidant and antibacterial properties, and biodegradability in the soil environment. Additionally, the films showed the ability to retard oil oxidation.

Summary: This study focuses on the characteristics of a modified silicone adhesive with filler to ensure its high resistance to harsh environmental conditions. The functionalized palygorskite (palygorskite-MPTMS) was prepared by grafting 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane onto palygorskite under dried conditions. The results showed that the initial calcination of palygorskite promotes the grafting of functional groups on its surface, leading to improved thermal resistance in self-adhesive materials.

Summary: The efficiency of potato starch plasticization using two deep eutectic solvents (DESs) based on choline chloride (CC) and glycerol (G) or urea (U) has been evaluated. Both DESs exhibited solubility towards starch, but CCU showed significantly higher solvent power than CCG. The XRD result indicated that both DESs were able to penetrate the starch crystal regions and form stable hydrogen bonds with the hydroxylic groups of the polysaccharide. The viscosity and thermal stability of the starch material depended on the DES content, with a decrease in viscosity and thermal stability observed with increasing DES content. The gelatinization temperature was strongly affected by the type of DES, occurring at a lower temperature in CCU compared to CCG. The plasticization efficiency was tested using modulated DSC, and it was found that CCG had higher plasticizing efficiency compared to CCU.

Summary: The paper presents the results of research on the UV radiation influence on the self-adhesive properties of silicone adhesives. The adhesives were obtained by cross-linking commercial resins (PSA 590, Q2-7566) at the temperature of 110 degrees C, using different amounts (0-3 wt%) of bis(2,4-dichlorobenzoyl) peroxide. Self-adhesive properties of adhesives such as adhesion, tack, and durability before and after aging were determined. The adhesives showed stable self-adhesive properties, however, the PSA 590 adhesive had a higher maximum operating temperature than the Q2-7566 adhesive.

Summary: The paper focuses on the behavior of glued joints of wooden sections at elevated temperatures. The study found that the curing of PRF and PUR adhesives was insufficient at high temperatures. At 140℃, there was no significant reduction in strength for all tested adhesives, but a longer duration (1 day) led to a decrease in tensile shear strength. At 170℃, PRF and EPI showed a significant drop in strength, while PUR lost its strength completely after longer duration exposures.
