Nowadays, In order to reduce environmental footprint, polymer industry has started to develop new materials based on natural resources. Two kinds of biobased polymers can be developed. The first one corresponds to macromolecular structures existing in nature as cellulose, lignin, starch, alginate and so-on that most of them are probably the ones that derived from well-established cellulosic industries. Nevertheless, the thermal stability of these rich in oxygen structures are limited, they release relatively little heat during burning and are often able to char. Other biobased polymers are made up of molecules synthesized from natural resources. Not only polymers but also all additives used to modify their properties can be biobased to meet sustainable development. Intensive research is devoted to develop flame retardant biobased polymers from various raw resources. These flame retardant biobased polymers can be used directly as they are, alone or as a component of a more complex system. This is especially true when the molecules are phosphorus-rich as DNA or phytic acid or charring as lignin. All the efforts reviewed in this paper, show that a major objective is to develop 100 % biobased materials suitable for applications requiring high flame retardancy level. Different biomolecules from the cellulosic industry are also the most promising in flame retardancy. Manuscript profile

This article gives an overview of the manufacturing method and properties of composites containing polyoxymetals / polymers. Polyoxometals (POMs) are discrete, molecular, metal oxide clusters of various sizes ranging from one to several nanometers that exhibit different topologies and diverse chemical and electronic properties. POMs show very strong acidity, which makes them effective acid catalysts for specific reactions such as esterification, hydrolysis, Friedel-Craft alkylation, and tetrahydrofuran ring-opening polymerization. The integration of mineral components with polymer matrices will combine the properties of the mineral phase with polymers and create new functions. Mineral micrometer building blocks have been used to enhance mechanical strength, improve thermal and chemical stability, and improve the performance of polymeric materials. With the rapid development of nanotechnology, polymers can also be used as a substrate for the stabilization of nanostructures, which will eventually have the properties of nanostructures and polymer substrates at the same time. Methods such as physical composition, electrostatic adsorption, covalent bonding, and supermolecular modification are the main methods for combining POM in organic or inorganic polymer matrices (eg silica). Polyoxymetal / polymer composites have various properties such as unique optical, electrical or catalytic properties of polyoxymetals and the optimal processing and stability of polymer matrices. POM/ polymer composites may have many applications in optics, electronics, biology, medicine and catalysis Manuscript profile

Molecular self-assembly is the spontaneous aggregation of molecules or macromolecules into supramolecular structures with non-covalent interactions. This phenomenon is an interdisciplinary research topic that has a lot of potential applications in various fields. One of the main driving forces of molecular self-assembly is the existence of molecular amphiphilicity in the system which can cause microphase separation and create complex and stable nanostructures. Self-assembling peptides are one of the most important classes of molecules with the ability to self-assemble. The rich self-assembly behavior is observed in systems of peptides, due to the simultaneous presence of different interactions (such as electrostatic interaction, hydrophobicity and hydrogen bond) in systems consisting of them and the diversity of their molecular configuration. Better understanding of peptides self-assembly enables the better design of peptides to form functional nanostructures. In this review article, at first, peptide self-assembly and its importance are stated. Then, some examples of self-assembling peptides which have attracted the interest of scientists for various reasons, such as cyclic peptides, amphiphilic peptides, ionic complementary peptides and some other examples, are explained. Also, some important applications and benefits of peptides self-assembly, which include nanoscale construction, tissue engineering, drug delivery, applications in biosensors, and the study of conformational diseases, are reviewed.

Porous materials have different types of pores in the micro, meso or nano range, each of which plays a special role in porous materials application. Among these materials, porous carbon materials have a special share due to their unique properties such as: mechanical, chemical and thermal stability and their reasonable price. There are two main methods for synthesizing porous carbon materials: 1) template method and 2) pyrolysis/activation method. The template method is basically time consuming and tedious due to the use of the template and removal of template. Thus the method of pyrolysis/activation is widely used to prepare porous carbon materials from porous polymer precursers or waste and biomass materials in the presence of the physical and chemical active agents. Replacement of heteroatoms including: N, O, B, S and P in carbon materials leads to increased efficiency and development of their new applications; For example, the use of porous N-doped carbon materials as electrodes in superconducting cells increases the efficiency of energy storage and in the field of adsorbents materials increases the efficiency of CO2 uptake. Due to their unique properties, especially high surface area, low weight and high adsorption capacity, porous carbon materials are used in hydrogen storage, contaminants removal fron air air water, electrodes and as catalyst support.

Hydrogels are three-dimensional networks of hydrophilic polymers capable of absorbing and retaining significant amounts of fluids, which are also widely applied in wound healing, cartilage tissue engineering, bone tissue engineering, release of proteins, growth factors, and antibiotics. In the past decades, a lot of research has been done to accelerate wound healing. Hydrogel-based scaffolds have been a recurring solution in both cases, although their mechanical stability remains a challenge, some of which have already reached the market. To overcome this limitation, the reinforcement of hydrogels with fibers has been investigated. The structural similarity of hydrogel fiber composites to natural tissues has been a driving force for the optimization and exploration of these systems in biomedicine. Indeed, the combination of hydrogel formation techniques and fiber spinning methods has been very important in the development of scaffold systems with improved mechanical strength and medicinal properties. Hydrogel has the ability to absorb secretions and maintain moisture balance in the wound. In turn, the fibers follow the structure of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The combination of these two structures (fiber and hydrogel ) in a scaffold is expected to facilitate healing by creating a suitable environment by identifying and connecting cells with the moist and breathing space required for healthy tissue formation.

Lithium-ion batteries, as one of the most advanced and suitable rechargeable batteries, have received considerable attention in recent years. Polymer electrolytes are considered as one of the main components of the battery and good substitute for liquid electrolytes in the next generations of batteries. The polymer electrolytes used in the battery may be damaged or lose performance due to the alternating movement of ions or physical damage. To avoid the damages caused by this phenomenon, the use of self-healing polymer electrolytes is suggested as a appropriate solution. The ability of self-healing in the polymer electrolytes makes them start to repair themselves as soon as a craze or crack occurs on their surface, without the need for any stimulus, and even after repair, they are able to recover all their properties. This ability comes from the microstructure and type of chemical bonds of self-healing polymers. In general, the self-healing polymer electrolytes used in batteries are divided into two main categories: polymer electrolytes based on reversible covalent bonds, and polymer electrolytes based on non-covalent supramolecular bond type. Considering the importance of this issue, in this research, a review of self-healing polymer electrolytes in the next generation of lithium batteries will be done. Manuscript profile

The demand for rare earth elements has increased significantly due to potential industrial applications such as catalysts, magnets, battery alloys, ceramics. However, the separation and recovery of rare earth metals are very difficult due to their similar chemical properties and ionic radius, so progress in the separation process of these elements will bring many global benefits. Among the improved methods, the membrane technique has received much attention as a stable method with easy operation in the separation of such metals, and several membranes have been designed for separation. This article provides a summary of the types of membranes in the separation of rare earth elements in terms of extraction performance, transfer efficiency, and membrane stability. Polymer inclusion membranes are a new generation of non-liquid membrane that is made by a simple method of casting a solution containing liquid phases (carrier, plasticizer /modifier) and base polymers. Polymer inclusion membranes due to the possibility of simultaneous extraction and back-extraction, high selectivity, excellent stability, reusability, simple applicability, relatively low cost, and low energy consumption, it provides a great advantage in both the separation and purification of metal ions. Therefore, in this study, an overview of the PIMs reported in the studies to date is presented and the performance, permeability and stability of the membrane are discussed according to the base polymer, carrier, plasticizer and modifiers used.

Polymer-bonded explosives are widely used in defense and commercial industries. In this type of explosive, very high amounts of explosive crystals (about 90% by weight) are surrounded by a polymeric binder (about 10%), which leads to a decrease in sensitivity and a significant increase in safety during application and storage. These mixtures are molded in different ways, such as pressing, casting, extrusion, and injection. Studying the rheology of these mixtures with a high percentage of solid loading leads to finding the appropriate quality control method at different production stages. The first step was to review studies on alternatives to simulating explosive rheological behavior, such as dechlorane, calcium carbonate, sugar, etc. The general behavior of simulated mixtures, such as yield stress, shear rate dependence, time dependence, etc., is compared with original explosive. The results showed that despite the similarity in some rheological behaviors, it is impossible to predict and study all the rheological behaviors of polymer-bonded explosives using simulating materials. This paper discusses factors affecting the rheology of polymer-bonded explosives, such as particle size distribution, modification of explosive crystal surfaces, and plasticizer. A review of scientific sources showed that using a wide distribution of explosive crystal particles compared to a narrow distribution led to a significant reduction in viscosity and dependence on shear rate and time. The absence of strong interactions between crystal particles and polymer binder leads to no observation of quasi-solid behavior even in 85% by weight of explosive crystals such as octogen in hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene Manuscript profile

Despite the very good mechanical properties of composite materials, the strength of these materials is not suitable for heat resistance. Therefore, due to the increasing use of composite pipes, especially in the oil, gas and petrochemical industries, fire analysis in these pipes is very important. The most important goal of this research was to investigate the effects of fire on the strength of composite pipes and their failure time by performing a numerical thermal-mechanical analysis for a fluid-carrying composite pipe using MATLAB software. At the first step thermal modeling is carried out and heat distribution, due to the hydro carbonian fire, in the composite pipes is determined in terms of the location and time and then in the mechanical modeling stage, the loss of mechanical properties of the composite pipe due to this increase in temperature is calculated and considering the stresses from the fluid inside the pipe as well as thermal stresses have been created, the total stresses have been calculated. This Thermo-Mechanical model has been validated with the results found in valid articles and used to analyze the behavior of a fluid-carrying composite pipe exposed to hydrocarbon fire. Finally, the Tsai–Wu failure theory was employed to determine the failure time of the pipe in the above-mentioned conditions. By estimating the failure time of the composite pipe, it was possible to determine the pressure bearing capacity and failure time of pressurized composite pipes subjected to fire Manuscript profile
