Synthetic polymers are a crucial, yet often overlooked, aspect of daily life. From the hard plastics used in packaging and consumer products to biocompatible coatings for medical materials, to ...
A cationic conjugated polymer (CCP)-based multistep fluorescence resonance energy transfer (MS-FRET) technique, which identifies hypertensive risk alleles, can improve and shorten the time to blood ...
The molecular mass of polymers is a critical factor that influences their properties and applications. Unlike small molecules, polymers consist of a distribution of molecular weights and shapes.
• We have developed a new polymer-blending technique with only a high-shear flow field without any additives. • We have enabled nano-scale dispersion of immiscible polymers by blending with high-shear ...
Researchers have developed a new method for coating large surfaces with transparent, electrically-conductive nanofiber thin films. Chemists and engineers at the University of California, Los Angeles ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A team of Purdue University innovators hopes its new technology provides a more business-friendly option to utilize sustainable cellulose nanomaterials for use in vehicles, food ...
"Developed from a symposium sponsored by the Division of Polymeric Materials: Science and Engineering and the Division of Analytical Chemistry, at the 206th National Meeting of the American Chemical ...
A surprisingly simple technique based on physical phenomena first described more than a century ago could provide a new and highly controllable means of producing complex three-dimensional polymer ...
Today's advanced materials have become extremely complex in chemistry, structure and function, which means scientists need faster, more efficient ways to model and test new designs. J. Carson Meredith ...
Vinyl polymerization (polymerization of vinyl compounds) is a useful method for preparing sp 3-carbon-based main-chain polymers including commodity plastics, where the polymer backbone is constructed ...
Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute and the Department of Chemistry at University of Copenhagen, have recently designed a porous polymer aiming for the capture of small molecules. Ammonia is a ...
