Polyisocyanides are polymers distinguished by their helical structures, where the helix's winding direction (right- or left-handed) can be controlled through catalysts designed for synthesizing chiral ...

ACOMP is an automated smart manufacturing system that continually analyzes polymers during production, providing real-time data on reaction kinetics and polymer parameters such as residual monomer, ...

The polymer may be too brittle to hold the wound together The polymerization reaction generates heat, which can cause pain, as can the solvent (acetone) Removal of the glue is more difficult than for ...

A recent study published in Nature by researchers at Cornell University presents a recyclable and degradable alternative to conventional thermoset plastics using a bio-sourced monomer, dihydrofuran ...

Nanoreactors are nanoscale structures that enable chemical reactions by providing either a confined environment or active surface areas for reactants to interact. While some nanoreactors offer ...
