  Fully Interpenetrating Polymer Network from Natural Rubber and Guar Gum

  By Jobish Johns, Abhiram J. S., Pernabas N., Inayath Pasha I., Saifulla Khan, Anand A.

  Abstract: Fully interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) based on natural rubber (NR) and guar gum (GG) was prepared by using glutaraldehyde as a common crosslinking agent. As both the polymers are naturally occurring and the resulting IPN material can be termed as a green polymeric material. The solvent resistance properties of these samples were investigated by equilibrium swelling method using benzene as a solvent. Benzene was used as the penetrant for the …

  Integration of Semi-Interpenetrating Polymer Networks and Quantum Dot–Polymer Nanocomposites for Low-Cost, Flexible OLED Display

  By T. Premkumar, T. CH Anil Kumar, Prajeesh Raj V., P. Mohankumar, Pravin P. Pawar, P. Neopolean, S. Kalaiselvan, Avinash Kumar

  Abstract: Flexible OLED displays need advanced material systems to integrate capabilities for mechanical flexibility as well as thermal stability and environmental durability at low costs. Semi-interpenetrating polymer networks (SIPNs) combined with quantum dot (QD)-polymer nanocomposites serve to improve OLED performance capabilities. They combine a stable structural design along with a flexible matrix through the matrix capabilities of SIPNs which result in efficient luminescence and pure color output courtesy of CdSe/ZnS QDs …
