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, ...

Researchers at Koç University have developed a light-driven method to produce porous semiconducting polymers under ambient ...

For more than two decades, the Ihara research group has been focusing on the development of new methods for polymer syntheses using diazocarbonyl compounds as monomers. They found that diazoacetate ...

Researchers describe a new polymer structure called a bilayer-folded mesophase that has been discovered through a random copolymer sequence. Polymers, large molecules made up of repeating smaller ...

Following numerous experiments, the researchers developed a new model to predict the microscopic structure of the materials as well as their properties. Polymers are long-chain molecules.

Researchers at Georgia Tech have developed "living" polymers capable of growing, shrinking, healing, and regenerating after ...

CPL-active polymeric materials are superior in terms of scalability, flexibility, 3D stacking ability, and film-forming properties. CPL can be produced directly using chiral luminescent materials, ...

Self-healing polymers have evolved from early-stage laboratory concepts into commercially viable materials, particularly between 2022 and 2025, as industries increasingly focus on ...

In this article, we embark on a fascinating journey through the field of polymer degradation, unraveling the intricate processes behind their breakdown, the factors that influence this degradation, ...

The structure of semi-crystalline polymers largely depends on how strongly their molecular chains are entangled. Following numerous experiments, researchers developed a new model to predict the ...
