A polymer science revelation about how liquid mixtures separate could have major implications for human health, metabolism ...

Combining chemical signaling with mechanical analysis leads to mechanophores that can identify damage in polymers.

Newswise — Polymer sequence control is critical for developing advanced materials with precise properties tailored to specific applications. Traditional methods of polymerization often struggle to ...

Hydrogen-bond-driven folding pre-organizes synthetic polymer chains, enabling non-thermal covalent ligation and producing ...

Supramolecular polymers have emerged as an exciting class of materials over the last three decades. Their solution and bulk properties are remarkably similar to those of traditional macromolecules, ...

Polymers have become an indispensable part of everyday life. However, the current polymers represent only a small fraction of the huge number of polymers that theoretically exist. Prof. Dr.

What if we could invent materials that can repair themselves when damaged? Polymer molecules in various states – solid, melt, solution – are susceptible to covalent bond changes in response to ...

Rheological measurements are among the simplest and most informative ways to discover the dynamics of polymeric fluids and solids. Linear, or small amplitude, rheology gives a “fingerprint” of the ...
