Kyushu University researchers have directly observed, for the first time, how individual polymers—chain-like molecules—behave when in contact with solid surfaces. Published in the Journal of the ...

Polymer-based adhesives are essential for bonding lightweight materials used in transportation; however, how individual polymer chains behave at solid interfaces has remained unclear. In a recent ...

A $70,000 grant will support a Trine University faculty member's research into gels that could improve oil recovery and affect food production.

Microbial bioelectronic sensors use living bacteria that can create an electrical signal in response to the presence of a ...

Researchers from Tomsk Polytechnic University, as part of a scientific collaboration, proposed a one-step approach to improve ...

Despite its playful origin, Boise State researchers have taken this concept to the next level with “electronic tattoos” that ...
