Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent an exciting, new class of porous materials. Their hybrid organic-inorganic structure opens up near infinite possibilities to tune and design their structure for specific properties and applications. A new generation of flexible MOFs, following a generation of stiff MOFs, has created additional design space and complexity....
Hydrogel polymers are a novel class of hydrophilic materials that have large application areas in both the industrial and medical fields. Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) has received attention as a hydrogel polymer. Methods to modify the mechanical properties of gels and films made from CMC are of interest in our lab...
Epoxy resin is a thermosetting resin that is commonly used as composite matrix. Epoxy composite materials are well utilized in industries, such as aerospace, due to their good mechanical properties. Nano-scale filler reinforced polymer composite materials have been intensively researched in recent decades. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNXLs) are a type of...
