The microscopic geckos and octopuses created by 3D laser printing in Heidelberg University’s molecular engineering laboratories could lead to new possibilities in areas such as microrobotics and biomedicine.
A new paper in the journal Polymers has reviewed the development of colorimetric indicators based on anthocyanin polymer composites. The research has been conducted by scientists from Istituto Italiano di Technologia and Robotica e Ingegneria dei Sistemi in Italy.
Polyethylene plastics -; in particular, the ubiquitous plastic bag that blights the landscape -; are notoriously hard to recycle. They're sturdy and difficult to break down, and if they're recycled at all, they're melted into a polymer stew useful mostly for decking and other low-value products.
In an article recently published in the open-access journal Polymers, researchers presented an experimental study on the bonded anchorage of pre-stressed strands of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP).
In a paper recently published in the open-access journal Polymers, researchers explored the effect of various glass fibers (GFs) derived from borosilicate, commercial silicate, and iron-phosphates on the fabrication of polylactic acid (PLA) composites as well as their physical and structural properties.
A paper recently published in the journal Polymers reviewed the feasibility of using tannin-based polymeric foams as a greener alternative to non-renewable rigid polymeric cellular foams, specifically for building insulation.
In a paper recently published in the journal ACS Polymers Au, researchers reviewed the physical origins of typical liquid transport mechanisms, matrix dynamics, and ionic transport decoupling and explored the conditions ...
One day in the not-too-distant future, the plastics in our satellites, cars and electronics may all be living their second, 25th or 250th lives.
Despite the fact that plastics and synthetic polymers have a variety of beneficial qualities, poor management has led to extensive pollution that harms our ecosystems.
In a paper recently published in the Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, researchers explored the factors required to prepare an efficient ferrofluid (FF) high internal phase emulsion polymer foam (polyHIPE) usi...
