In-situ green synthesis and adsorption on methylene blue of copper-based metal organic framework/cellulose/chitosan (CCTSA/HKUST-1) composite aerogel, TAPPI Journal October 2024
ABSTRACT: In order to explore the application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in environmental and water treatment fields, a new composite aerogel of HKUST-1/cellulose/chitosan (CCTSA/HKUST-1) with better hydrostability was synthesized by an in-situ synthesis method combining covalent cross-linking and solvothermal methods as an efficient adsorbent for methylene blue (MB). The composite aerogel (CCTSA) obtained by covalent cross-linking of cellulose (CE) and chitosan (CTS) exhibited excellent stability under strong acid and solvent-thermal conditions. With the increase of CTS content, it was beneficial to the in-situ synthesis of HKUST-1, as well as to increase the mass loading rate of HKUST-1 to 37.06%, while the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) specific surface area of CCTSA/HKUST-1 composite aerogel reached 945.123 m2·g-1, which was much higher than that of the CCTSA composite aerogel (14.489 m2·g-1). The CCTSA/ HKUST-1 composite aerogel exhibited excellent adsorption capacity (537.6 mg·g-1) on MB solution, and cyclic adsorption could be achieved. This study proposes a concept of valorization of alkaline peroxide mechanical pulping (APMP) waste liquor to hemicellulose-based hydrogel. This hemicellulose-based hydrogel exhibits a sensitive temperature/pH dual response. Hemicellulose-based hydrogels swell or shrink through the change of hydrogen bond/electrostatic repulsion/charge screening. They also show good water absorption and water retention properties.

Effects of different ammonium lignosulfonate contents on the crystallization, rheological behaviors, and thermal and mechanical properties of ethylene propylene diene monomer/polypropylene/ammonium lignosulfonate composites, TAPPI Journal January 2020
ABSTRACT: Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), made from ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) and polypropylene (PP) based on reactive blending, has an excellent processing performance and characteristics and a wide range of applications. However, there are currently no reports in the literature regarding the usage of TPE in making composite boards. In this paper, EPDM, PP, and ammonium lignosulfonate (AL) were used as the raw materials, polyethylene wax was used as the plasticizer, and a dicumyl peroxide vulcanization system with dynamic vulcanization was used to make a new kind of composite material. This research studied the influences of the AL contents on the crystallization behaviors, rheological properties, thermal properties, and mechanical properties of the composites. The results showed that the AL content had a noticeable impact on the performance of the composite board. Accordingly, this kind of composite material can be used as an elastomer material for the core layer of laminated flooring.
