A fluorescence polarization (FP) assay for the simultaneous determination of bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol F (BPF), bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE) and bisphenol F diglycidyl ether (BFDGE) was developed. The method was based on the competition between bisphenols (BPs) and fluorescein-labeled dexamethasone derivative (Dex-fl) for mouse peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α ligand binding domain (mPPARα-LBD). A recombinant soluble protein derivative mPPARα-LBD* was prepared, then in vitro binding of 4 BPs to mPPARα-LBD* was investigated. Fluorescence polarization assay showed that these compounds exhibited different binding potencies with mPPARα-LBD*. Additionally, molecular dynamics simulations were performed to further understand the mechanism of BPs binding affinity for mPPARα-LBD*. Docking results elucidated that the driving forces for the binding of BPs to mPPARα-LBD* were predominantly dependent on hydrophobic and hydrogen-bonding interactions. Comparison of the calculated binding energies vs. experimental binding affinities yielded a good correlation (R = 0.7258). The proposed method has potential for multi-residue detection of BPA, BPF, BADGE, and BFDGE.

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).

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated low-stress resin-based composites (RBCs) and their stress relaxation mechanisms, comparing them to an experimental low-stress thiourethane (TU) material.
- The experimental composites included a mix of different dimethacrylates and barium aluminosilicate filler, with tests on polymerization kinetics and stress relaxation conducted using advanced analytical techniques.
- Results indicated that TU-modified RBCs exhibited significantly higher polymerization conversion rates and stress reduction capabilities compared to traditional materials, with the TU composites and SDR Flow+ showing the most effective stress relaxation.
Naphthalene-Containing Epoxy Resin: Phase Structure, Rheology, and Thermophysical Properties.

Naphthalene is a fungicide that can also be a phase-change agent owing to its high crystallization enthalpy at about 80 °C. The relatively rapid evaporation of naphthalene as a fungicide and its shape instability after melting are problems solved in this work by its placement into a cured epoxy matrix. The work's research materials included diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A as an epoxy resin, 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl sulfone as its hardener, and naphthalene as a phase-change agent or a fungicide.

Article Synopsis
- Understanding the interphase regions in epoxy resins is crucial for enhancing their mechanical properties, like fracture strength and barrier performance, as these areas are often weak spots.
- Conventional methods struggle to analyze these nanoscale regions, making it hard to understand their formation processes.
- By using molecular dynamics simulations and infrared mapping, researchers discovered that binding interactions of the amine cross-linker with various metal oxide surfaces affect binding energies, while also revealing that an excess of reactive materials remains near the particles, indicating potential undercuring in the matrix.

A low-cost fully dicyclopentadiene (DCPD)-networked epoxy system was designed. Compared to commercial diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A epoxy resin counterparts, the cured DCPD-based resin demonstrates excellent thermal properties ( > 250 °C) and a low dissipation factor (0.0065 at 10 GHz), indicating its potential as a promising thermoset for high-performance electronic applications.
