A series of nanocomposites based on the biodegradable plastic, polylactide (PLA), have been prepared by melt-blending with graphene (Gra) and ionic liquid containing phosphonium ([PCMIM]PF6, IL) surface-functionalized graphene (GIL).
High internal phase emulsion templated, interconnected macroporous hydrogels with rapid absorption, high and tunable water uptakes were fabricated for enhancing water efficiency in extinguishing fires and preventing combustible objects from burning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
