When most people hear "polymer," they think of plastics. In our group, polymerization is a way to line up identical molecules ...

Barcelona avenged bitter rivals Real Madrid and defeated second-division outfit Albacete 2–1 on Tuesday night to advance to the Copa del Rey semifinal. It wasn’t the attacking onslaught many predicted ...

A new UNSW-led global meta-analysis shows that PFAS concentrations can double at every step up the food chain, leaving top predators—and humans—potentially exposed to higher chemical loads. A ...

When a plastic fails unexpectedly, the cause could lie anywhere — processing, design, material choice or even additives. But sometimes, the problem goes deeper — back to how the polymer itself was ...

A controlled/“living” click polymerization method developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo and Nagoya University enables precise chain-growth of AB-type monomers—traditionally limited to ...

S/O and vinyl isomerization enables ultrafast cationic ring-opening polymerization toward CO 2-derived polythioester with migrated in-chain C=C substituents The ring-opening polymerization of ...
