Chemists grew the longest conductive polymer chains ever made on a surface, nearly one micrometer long, using a clean process that enables precise nanoribbons.

Researchers at Rice University, working with partners at Chungnam National University in South Korea, have developed a ...

Linear or thermoplastic polymers are polymers that consist of long chains or strings of repeating units. These types of materials can be heated, allowing the polymer chains to slide over each other ...

The synthesis of 2D material polymers represents a groundbreaking approach in materials science, offering a diverse range of applications in various industries. These composite materials combine the ...

A peptide sensor to detect water-soluble polymers in wastewater, a major contributor to pollution on par with microplastics, has been developed. The new technique takes advantage of the bonding that ...

A face-serum staple just helped a research team build an invisible film that conducts electricity like a metal. At La Trobe University in Melbourne, the group used hyaluronic acid to guide the growth ...

This novel approach significantly reduces processing time from a week to just minutes, enabling high-throughput production of precision polymer nanomaterials. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at the ...

Different from small molecules, polymers will fold into lamellar crystals during crystallization and further assemble into lamellar stacks. Synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is an ...
