A polymer that catalyzes its own formation in an environmentally friendly solvent-free process has been developed by an all-RIKEN team of chemists. The discovery could lead to the development of ...
Plastic, once ingenious for its durability and versatility, has become a global environmental issue that is affecting every ...
Polyurethane (PU) is a macromolecular polymeric material that exhibits properties between those of common rubber and rigid plastic, and has excellent properties such as wide rigidity, high intensity, ...
Solutions of 1,6-hexanediamine and sebacoyl chloride are poured carefully into the same container. Nylon polymer forms at the interface of the two layers and can be pulled continuously from the ...
The overall objective of this work is to develop a novel methodology of surface modification, which can be broadly applied to polymer networks such as elastomer and hydrogel. Two types of ...
The objective of this project is to design and fabricate a novel kind of nanocomposite materials, nanowire-colloidal composite particles, using self-assembly and emulsion polymerization. The ...
Given a choice, manufacturers of high-performance composites might prefer to make parts for a variety of applications from reinforced thermoplastics rather than reinforced thermosets. Thermoplastics ...
Surface-initiated controlled radical polymerizations have emerged as a powerful and cost-effective approach for fabricating ultrathin polymer films with diverse functionalities. During this free ...
(Nanowerk News) Adsorption-based (e.g., gas or liquid molecules) separation technologies have shown unique economic and environmental advantages in specific applications. In industrial applications, ...
Effect of molecular weight toward tensile properties in the present biobased polyesters, HP1. The plots of PE-18,18 (polyester-18,18, reported biobased), and ...
Researchers continue to explore ways to improve the performance of solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) for lithium metal batteries (LMBs), aiming to develop more efficient and sustainable energy storage ...
