Effect of Nanoconfinement on the isodimorphic crystallization of Poly(butylene succinate-ran-caprolactone) Random Copolymers
Safari, Maryam; Leon Boigues, Laia; Shi, Guangyu; Maiz, Jon; Liu, Guoming; Wang, Dujin; Mijangos, Carmen; Müller Sánchez, Alejandro Jesús 
(ACS, 2020-07-21)
(ACS, 2020-07-21)
In this paper, we study for the first time the effect of hard confinement on the isodimorphic crystallization of random copolyesters. A series of poly(butylene succinate-ran-caprolactone) samples encompassing the entire ...
Even-odd Effect in Aliphatic Polycarbonates with Different Chain Lengths: from Poly (hexamethylene carbonate) to Poly (dodecamethylene carbonate)
Pérez Camargo, Ricardo Arpad; Meabe Iturbe, Leire; ; Liu, Guoming; Zhao, Ying; Wang, Dujin; Müller Sánchez, Alejandro Jesús (ACS, 2020-12-17)
(ACS, 2020-12-17)
We have characterized a series of aliphatic polycarbonates synthesized by organocatalysis containing a variable number of methylene groups (nCH2) in their repeat units ranging from nCH2 = 6 to 12. The melting and crystallization ...
Toward Supramolecular Nanozymes for the Photocatalytic Activation of Pt(IV) Anticancer Prodrugs
Mazzei, Laura Filomena; Martínez, Álvaro; Trevisan, Lucia; Rosa Gastaldo, Daniele; López Cortajarena, Aitziber ; Mancin, Fabrizio; Salassa, Luca (Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2020-09-16)
; Mancin, Fabrizio; Salassa, Luca (Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2020-09-16)
A supramolecular nanozyme for the photocatalytic conversion of a Pt(IV) anticancer complex to cisplatin is described herein. We employed 1.9 nm Au nanoparticles decorated with thiol ligands bearing a TACN (1,4,7-triazacyclononane) ...
Residual alignment and its effect on weld strength in material-extrusion 3D-printing of polylactic acid
; ; ; ; Müller Sánchez, Alejandro Jesús ; ; ; (Elsevier B.V, 2020-06-30)
; ; ; (Elsevier B.V, 2020-06-30)
Gaining a molecular understanding of material extrusion (MatEx) 3D printing is crucial to predicting and
controlling part properties. Here we report the direct observation of distinct birefringence localised to the ...
Poly(ionic liquid)–ionic liquid membranes with fluorosulfonyl derived anions: characterization and biohydrogen separation
(ACS, 2020-04-21)
Clean and sustainable energy production has become a key global issue concerning the world’s energy shortage and environmental problematic. Despite the recognized potential of biohydrogen (bioH2) for sustainable development, ...
Synthesis, Structure and Crystallization Behavior of Amphiphilic Hetero-arm Molecular Brushes with Crystallizable Poly(ethylene oxide) and N-Alkyl Side Chains
Barnard, Elaine; Pfukwa, Rueben; Maiz, Jon; Müller Sánchez, Alejandro Jesús ; Klumperman, Bert (ACS, 2020-02-24)
; Klumperman, Bert (ACS, 2020-02-24)
A series of hetero-arm amphiphilic molecular brushes (AMBs) with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and long chain n-alkyl side chains were synthesized via conventional free radical polymerization (FRP) of mainly 4-vinyl benzyl-PEG ...
Crystallization, Orientation and Solid−Solid Crystal Transition of Polybutene‐1 Confined within Nanoporous Alumina
Wang, Zefan; Wang, Ming; Cavallo, Dario; Wang, Dujin; Liu, Guoming; Müller Sánchez, Alejandro Jesús ; Shi, Guangyu (ACS, 2020-07-31)
; Shi, Guangyu (ACS, 2020-07-31)
The effect of confinement on the crystallization, crystal orientation, and polymorphic crystal transition of bulk and infiltrated polybutene-1 (PB-1) within nanoporous alumina templates (AAO) were studied. After cooling ...
Effect of the crystallization conditions on the exclusion/inclusion balance in biodegradable poly(butylene succinate-ran-butylene adipate) copolymers
Pérez Camargo, Ricardo Arpad; Liu, Guoming; Cavallo, Dario; Wang, Dujin; Müller Sánchez, Alejandro Jesús (ACS, 2020-07-14)
(ACS, 2020-07-14)
Biomedical applications of polymers require precise control of the solid-state structure, which is of particular interest for biodegradable copolymers. In this work, we evaluated the influence of crystallization conditions ...
Nucleation of poly(lactide) partially wet droplets in ternary blends with poly(butylene succinate) and poly(ε-caprolactone)
; ; ; ; Müller Sánchez, Alejandro Jesús ; (ACS, 2020-02-25)

This work presents the first investigation on the crystallization behavior of partially wet droplets in immiscible ternary blends. Poly(lactide), poly(ε-caprolactone), and poly(butylene succinate) (PLA, PCL, and PBS, ...
Chemical Structure Drives Memory Effects in the Crystallization of Homopolymers
; ; ; ; ; ; Müller Sánchez, Alejandro Jesús (ACS, 2020-06-11)
(ACS, 2020-06-11)
Although the study of melt memory has attracted much interest, the effect of polymer chemical structure on its origin has not been fully elucidated. In this work, we study melt memory effects by Differential Scanning ...
