Polymers are known to have excellent chemical resistance, strength, and elasticity. However, these very properties can hinder their chemical analysis. Therefore, the quality control techniques used ...

Polymers are organic materials that are characterized by unique properties, such as tensile strength and viscoelastic behavior under deformation. As a result, these materials are used extensively in ...

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 ...

Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have developed a new polymerization technique that chains chemical reactions in ...

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a process widely used in the manufacturing of electronic and energy devices as it is able to form conducting, semiconducting and dielectric thin films. Here, in the ...

A new study led by Colorado State University Distinguished Professor Eugene Chen outlines a path to creating advanced, recyclable plastics. Published in Nature, the study describes a breakthrough ...
