Summary: In this study, a phytic acid-polydopamine functionalized GO@PA@PDA was synthesized and incorporated into waterborne polyurethane (WPU) with DOPO derivatives and hydroxyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) through in situ polymerization. The incorporation of GO@PA@PDA significantly enhanced the flame retardancy and mechanical properties of the modified WPU. Additionally, the addition of GO@PA@PDA increased the surface roughness and hydrophobicity of the GPD-WPU composite films. Coating GPD-WPU as a finishing agent on polyester fabric improved its flame retardancy.

Summary: Silane coupling agent KH560-FA containing furan groups was synthesized to modify the surface of graphene oxide, and maleimide group-capped waterborne polyurethane was synthesized simultaneously. A self-healing material based on polymer/modified graphene oxide with a microcrosslinking network structure was synthesized via Diels-Alder (DA) reaction. The addition of modified graphene oxide significantly enhanced the hydrophobicity and mechanical properties of the material. Moreover, when the dosage of KH560-FA-GO reached 0.4 wt%, the corrosion resistance of the coating prepared from the emulsion was remarkably improved, indicating the potential application of the material in the field of coatings.

Summary: A comparative study was conducted to investigate the use of unfunctionalized lignin and functionalized lignin as reinforcing fillers for waterborne polyurethane film. The results showed that the functionalized lignin significantly improved the tensile properties and thermal stability of the film compared to the unfunctionalized lignin. The addition of functionalized lignin increased the ultimate tensile strength by 9% and made the film more flexible with higher deformation resistance. The thermal stability of the bio-composite films was not compromised by the addition of functionalized lignin.

Summary: Nanocomposites based on waterborne polyurethane (WPU) and graphene oxide (GO) were synthesized and characterized. The incorporation of GO led to a significant increase in the Young's modulus of WPU films. The mechanical properties of WPU/GO composites were found to be influenced by the lateral size of GO sheets. Additionally, the water absorption of WPU was affected differently depending on the size of GO sheets.
