Summary: We synthesized a thermoresponsive polymer with a narrow molecular weight distribution using organic photo-redox-catalyzed atom transfer radical polymerization (O-ATRP). The O-ATRP was mediated by a photoredox catalyst 1,2,3,5-tetrakis (carbazol-9-yl)-4,6-dicyanobenzene (4CzIPN) under visible light irradiation. The polymerization of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) chains from a hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC)-based macroinitiator was characterized using various analytical methods. The resulting PMMA-grafted HPC (PMMA-g-HPC) showed a widened lower critical solution temperature (LCST) window and an inverse pH dependency of the LCST, making it promising for various applications including drug delivery systems.

Summary: The poly[poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate]-graft-poly(2-vinylpyridine) (PPEGMA-g-P2VP) comb-type graft copolymer was synthesized using the ATRP-macromonomeric initiator and 2-vinylpyridine monomer by applying atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) via grafting through strategy. The ATRP-MMI was obtained by homopolymerizing poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate bromide in the presence of 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile by free radical polymerization (FRP) technique. The PPEGMA-g-P2VP comb-type graft copolymer was successfully prepared by ATRP method and the monomer concentration had an effect on dispersity and molecular weight.

Summary: The ultrafast synthesis of core cross-linked star poly(p-methylstyrene) (s-PMS) with syndiotactic arms was achieved through a coupling reaction between the active species of metal-poly(p-methylstyrene) and the cross-linker of divinylbenzene (DVB). By controlling the molecular weight, DVB loading, and coupling time, narrowly distributed s-PMS with high yield was obtained. Compared to linear PMS, s-PMS with the same molecular weight has lower solution viscosity and smaller hydrodynamic radius.

Summary: Poly(vinyl ketones) (PVKs) have been extensively studied for their unique photochemistry and photodegradation properties under ultraviolet (UV) light. PVKs rapidly undergo photodegradation through Norrish type I or Norrish type II reaction mechanisms, and the side-chain carbonyl moieties can be easily modified by nucleophilic addition reactions. These properties make PVKs versatile scaffolds for generating functional materials. This review provides an overview of synthetic routes to access well-defined PVKs, their photochemistry and photo-degradation pathways, as well as recent and potential applications of these photodegradable materials.

Summary: ε-Thionocaprolactone (TCL) can be easily copolymerized with vinyl esters to form degradable copolymers, with the molecular weight and dispersity controlled through xanthate-mediated RAFT polymerization. Analysis of the copolymer structure reveals a high level of TCL-TCL dyads, suggesting that the terminal copolymerization model is not accurate for describing TCL copolymerization.

Summary: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown potential as effective visible light photocatalysts for degrading dyes. Among nickel, iron, and titanium-based MOFs, Fe-MOF exhibited the highest dye degradation efficiency and stability under solar light irradiation, attributed to its ability to suppress photoinduced charge recombination. Furthermore, the photodegradation of dye using Fe-MOF followed first-order kinetics and was mainly driven by superoxide anion radicals.

Summary: In this study, graphitic carbon nitride and porous graphitic carbon nitride were successfully prepared by reducing melamine using a pyrolysis method. The enhanced photocatalytic degradation efficiency of porous graphitic carbon nitride was attributed to an increase in surface area, leading to a higher number of active sites for dye degradation.

Summary: Photopolymerization technology is limited in the fields of food packaging and biomedicine due to the high migration of small molecules from photoinitiators. In this study, a polymerizable 2-vinyl thioxanthone (ETX) was synthesized to improve the migration stability of photoinitiators. Macromolecular photoinitiators (PPI1, PPI2) were also prepared to further reduce migration. The results showed that the ETX/TEOA system had higher initiation performance and PPI2 displayed favorable initiation ability. Additionally, the migration of ETX, PPI1, and PPI2 in photocured film was significantly reduced. These low-migration photoinitiators have potential applications in the fields of food packaging and biological materials.

Summary: This study focuses on the development of high-performance, low-migration photoinitiators. A polymerizable photoinitiator (VBP) was synthesized by introducing an ethylene group into benzophenone, and three different molecular weight single-component photoinitiators (PVBN1-3) were synthesized based on VBP. The results show that these new photoinitiators have stronger absorption ability compared to benzophenone and significantly reduce the migration of initiators and co-initiators, addressing the safety concerns caused by migration.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of plasma treatment on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and the structure/properties of polyimide (PI) nanocomposites with ultra-low content of CNTs. The results show that plasma treatment introduces isocyanate groups on the surface of CNTs and enhances the interfacial interaction between PI and treated CNTs. This leads to a significant improvement in the mechanical properties of the nanocomposites, with even a small addition of treated CNTs showing a substantial increase in Young's modulus, tensile strength and toughness.
