In various aspects, the present invention provides a degradable and resorbable novel phosphate functionalized amino acid-based poly(ester urea) adhesive and related methods for its synthesis and use. These adhesives are formed from phosphate functionalized PEU polymers and copolymers crosslinked using one or more divalent metal crosslinking agents. The phosphate functionalized amino acid-based poly(ester urea) adhesives of various embodiments of the present invention have been found particularly effective in bonding bone to either bone or metal and have demonstrated adhesive strengths on bone samples that were significant and comparable to commercially available poly(methyl methacrylate) bone cement.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a resin composite that is excellent in water resistance and is capable of exerting sufficient strength even under wet conditions. The present invention relates to a resin composite comprising a resin, fibers having an ionic functional group, and a polyvalent ion. The fibers having an ionic functional group are preferably cellulose fibers having a fiber width of 1000 nm or less.

A product and method for providing oxygen remediating extruded or other melt-phase plastics for packages for reducing oxygen-linked damage to foods, pharmaceuticals, or other oxygen sensitive substances. The method for making oxygen remediating melt-phase incorporated plastics for packages and packaging elements generally includes the addition of an oxygen managing combination of compounds that restrict the migration of oxygen and/or eliminate migration oxygen through reaction with components of the polymer additive. Dry components remain inactive until moisture from the packaged food partially deliquesces a formulary component to trigger oxidation of a powdered metal or other oxidizing compound. Other additives absorb and distribute moisture and facilitate electron movement for improved oxidation.

Disclosed is an aqueous bonding composition comprising: (A) a saccharide; (B) a water-soluble synthetic resin; and (C) an inorganic acid ammonium salt, wherein the inorganic acid ammonium salt (C) comprises at least one selected from ammonium dihydrogen phosphate and ammonium chloride.
