“…Particularly, in polymer sciences, understanding and controlling phase transitions has enabled considerable progress in membrane technologies, porous glasses, composites, and thermoelectrics. [29][30][31][32][33] As the fundamental understanding of the phase behavior of synthetic polymers has progressed, efforts have turned to sequence-defined biopolymers such as proteins. [34][35][36] Similarly to synthetic macromolecules, understanding the phase behavior of proteins has potential to enable applications in the biotechnology domain, namely in protein isolation and protein delivery systems.…”

“…Considering the shortcomings of this modification, including inefficient ionic conductivity or weak mechanical integrity of the membranes [96][97][98], membranes could be fabricated using an IPN. Two or more polymers are at least partly or wholly entangled but have no chemical bond in between [98,99]. This method boosts the material's durability and strength while keeping each component's unique advantages.…”

“…Besides fully cross-linked IPNs, there are pseudo- or semi-IPNs, where both linear chains of one polymer and cross-linked chains of the other are present. Thus, two polymers are interlaced only to some extent [99,100]. The whole entanglement is possible by introducing cross-linking agents [96].…”

Chitosan (CS)-based anion exchange membranes (AEMs) have gained significant attention in fuel cell applications owing to their numerous benefits, such as environmental friendliness, flexibility for structural alteration, and improved mechanical, thermal and chemical durability. This study aims to enhance the cell performance of CS-based AEMs by addressing key factors including mechanical stability, ionic conductivity, water absorption and expansion rate. While previous reviews have predominantly focused on CS as a proton-conducting membrane, the present mini-review highlights the advancements of CS-based AEMs. Furthermore, the study investigates the stability of cationic head groups grafted to CS through simulations. Understanding the chemical properties of CS, including the behaviour of grafted head groups, provides valuable insights into the membrane’s overall stability and performance. Additionally, the study mentions the potential of modern cellulose membranes for alkaline environments as promising biopolymers. While the primary focus is on CS-based AEMs, the inclusion of cellulose membranes underscores the broader exploration of biopolymer materials for fuel cell applications.

“…Such coatings have the advantage of limiting the intervention to the surfaces of the glass plates, while maintaining the transparency of the structural component. Moreover, they are routinely used in the glass industry for many purposes; selective coatings to improve the thermal performance of glazing, anti-fingerprint coatings, and anti-shatter films are just a few examples [16]. In most cases, UV-cured coatings are preferred because they are environmentally friendly: They do not contain solvents and, therefore, toxic organic-vapor emissions are minimized.…”

The use of glass in architecture is growing and is moving towards structural applications. However, the tensile strength of glass cannot be fully exploited because of stress corrosion. This is a corrosion triggered by stress applied to the material and dependent on environmental factors such as humidity and temperature. To protect glass from stress corrosion, we developed a UV-cured coating, characterized by hydrophobicity, barrier to water vapor properties, and good adhesion to glass, thanks to a compositional profile. The coating was obtained by combining a cycloaliphatic diacrylate resin with a very low amount of a perfluoropolyether methacrylate co-monomer, which migrated to the free surface, creating a compositionally graded coating. The adhesion to glass was improved, using as a primer an acrylated silane able to co-react with the resins. With a mechanical load test using the coaxial double ring set-up, we proved that the coating is effective in the inhibition of stress corrosion of glass plates, with an increase of 76% of tensile strength.
