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, ...

Science has long taken inspiration from the natural world, and few natural designs are as iconic as the helical shape that ...

Synthetic materials rarely mimic the dynamic helicity observed in biological systems like DNA and proteins, often forming ...

Scientists solve a long-standing block copolymer research conundrum through polymer chain end modifications. The study garners substantial academic attention by achieving tangible manifestations of ...

Ultramicrotome Sectioning enables precise preparation of polymer samples using room temperature and cryo techniques for ...

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 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 ...

Polymers, large molecules made up of repeating smaller molecules called monomers, are found in nearly everything we use in our day-to-day lives. Polymers can be natural or created synthetically.

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, ...

Researchers have announced two major polymer science advances: a self-assembling polymer system that improves gene delivery safety and efficiency, and a chlorophyll-based supramolecular polymer that ...

“The acquisition of Biomedical Structures and Modified Polymer Components is another step in our strategy of expanding our portfolio of world-class medical technologies,” said Dean Schauer, President ...
