The phenolic Schiff bases I-VI were synthesized by condensation reactions between various diamines, namely o-dianisidine, o-tolidine and ethylenediamine with vanillin or p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and subsequent reactions between these phenolic Schiff bases and epichlorohydrin to produce new diglycidyl ethers Ia-VIa. The structures of these compounds were confirmed by CHN, FT-IR, (1)H-NMR, and (13)C-NMR spectroscopy. Their thermotropic liquid crystalline behavior was studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarizing optical microscopy (POM). All the diglycidyl ethers prepared exhibit nematic mesophases, except for Va and VIa, which did not show any transition mesophases, but simply flow to liquids.

The binding ability of human serum albumin (HSA) on active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) is one of the most important parameters in the early stages of drug discovery. In this study, an immobilized HSA-based tool was developed for the rapid and easy in vitro screening of API binding. The work explored the serious incompleteness in the identification of HSA used for in vitro screening published in the last five years.

The pursuit of carbon circularity in the fabrication of new materials has driven the increased use of recycled and biobased resources, a practice that has become more prevalent in recent years. In epoxy resin systems, alternatives to the use of fossil-based bisphenols have been proposed such as via the production of recycled bisphenol A (r-BPA) or by substitution with lignin derivatives, both of which are recovered from previous processes, promoting circularity. For this study, r-BPA was obtained via the chemical recycling of plastic blends from end-of-life (eol) televisions (TV).

Studying the mechanisms and effects of rejuvenators on SBS-modified bitumen is crucial for repairing degraded SBS and recycling aged SBS-modified bitumen (ASMB), thereby contributing to the sustainable development of bitumen pavements. This research examines the roles of mono-epoxy Alkyl (C12-C14) glycidyl ether (AGE) and di-epoxy 1,6-Hexanediol diglycidyl ether (HDE) under the catalysis of N,N-dimethyl benzyl amine (BDMA) in repairing degraded SBS chains. Aromatic oil (ORSMB)-, AGE-aromatic oil (ARSMB)-, and HDE-aromatic oil (HRSMB)-rejuvenated bitumen are analyzed for their chemical structures, physical properties, and rheological properties.

This study presents a novel approach for the controlled synthesis and real-time characterization of crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels utilizing a microfluidic platform coupled with hyphenated electrospray-differential mobility analysis (ES-DMA). By precisely controlling key synthesis parameters within the microfluidic environment, including pH, temperature, reaction time, and the molar ratio of HA to crosslinker (1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether, BDDE), we successfully synthesized HA hydrogels with tailored size and properties. The integrated ES-DMA system provides rapid, in-line analysis of hydrogel particle size and distribution, enabling real-time monitoring and optimization of the synthesis process.
