Albuquerque, N.M. — For the past three years a Sandia research team headed by Mat Celina has been investigating the performance of various piezoelectric polymer films that might one day serve as ultra ...

Researchers probe charged polymer droplets to reveal how their nanoscale behavior could shape future drug delivery and adhesive materials. (Nanowerk News) Whether natural or synthetic, polymers — ...

Scientists often seek new materials derived from polymers. Rather than starting a polymer search from scratch, they save time and money by blending existing polymers to achieve desired properties.

Cambridge, MA – Scientists often seek new materials derived from polymers. Rather than starting a polymer search from scratch, they save time and money by blending existing polymers to achieve desired ...

RNA therapy with polymer nanoparticles is considered a promising approach for the treatment of various illnesses. It involves the use of polymers as "nanocarriers" to transport RNA drugs precisely to ...

Engineered polymers hold promise for use in next generation technologies such as light-harvesting devices and implantable electronics that interact with the nervous system – but creating polymers with ...

X-ray scattering is an essential tool for characterizing polymer morphology, yet designing a successful experiment can feel overwhelming for newcomers. During this introductory webinar join Robert ...

In a recent study (ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, "Design of Experiments Grants Mechanistic Insights into the Synthesis of Spermine-Containing PBAE Copolymers") by the research group of Olivia ...

Zhengzhou University researchers have developed a game-changing polymer that achieves nearly 20% efficiency in organic solar cells (OSCs) at a fraction of the cost of existing materials. This leap ...

Most polymers don’t mix—and that’s the point. Polymer alloys succeed by engineering the interface: use thermodynamics to predict separation, processing to sculpt morphology, and compatibilizers to ...
