Polymers are fundamental to our daily lives, serving as the core components for a wide array of goods, including clothing, packaging, transportation infrastructure, construction materials, and ...

At present, 3D printing is an increasingly widespread and accessible technology, typically involving the formation of solid polymeric materials in a specific region, either by extruding pre-formed ...

A soft polymer that hardens on impact uses force-activated molecules to rewire its own structure, achieving record stiffness and 97% force reduction.

This illustration shows the C1 polymer formation, where the Pd-catalyst (red spere) is linearly combining a number of diazoacetate monomers (transparent sphere) to form the polymer main chain. For ...

Microporous organic polymers (MOPs) are composed entirely of covalently linked organic molecules. These materials are characterized by their high surface areas, permanent microporosity, and structural ...

Scientists developed a new photopolymerisation reaction controlled antagonistically by two different colours of light. Specifically, one light beam promotes the formation of the polymeric material, ...
