Recyclable Polymers: A New Class of Renewable Thermoplastics with Extraordinary Performance from Nanostructured Lignin‐Elastomers (Adv. Funct. Mater. 16/2016)
Source abstract
Abstract
A. K. Naskar and co-workers introduce novel and powerful method for synthesizing a new class of high-performance renewable thermoplastic elastomers on page 2677. By introducing nanoscale-dispersed lignin) into nitrile rubber the material's morphology and performance can be tuned with temperature-controlled mixing. This new class of elastomers exhibit unprecedented yield stress and strain harden at large deformation, and have potential insustainable products from biomass-based industries.
