Conversion of mechanical stress into electricity or vice versa is done by piezoelectric materials and could be useful in actuators, sensors, and several other applications.
Industrial processes for chemical separations, including natural gas purification and the production of oxygen and nitrogen for medical or industrial uses, are collectively responsible for about 15 percent of the world’s energy use.
Stanford chemical engineers have developed high-brightness, stretchy color displays after uncovering a groundbreaking method of creating an elastic light-emitting polymer.
Achieving green synthesis of dyes and the dyeing process is critical for the sustainability and environmental friendliness of the textiles industry. To investigate this potential, a team of scientists from China have published a paper, currently in the pre-proof stage, in the journal Dyes and Pigments.
Researchers from Italy and Spain have developed photocurable hydrogels derived from chitosan and gelatin to treat water and remove contaminants. Their work has been published online in the journal Polymers this week.
In an article recently published in the journal ACS Applied Polymer Materials, researchers discussed the preparation of ultra-stiff 3D-printed molds with ultraviolet (UV)-curable and low-viscosity resin having a high silica filler content.
Researchers who assisted in pioneering the utilization of enzymes to break down plastic have taken a significant next step in engineering nature-based solutions to the plastics crisis worldwide.
Researchers from Malaysia, China, and the Philippines have collaborated on a paper investigating how synthetic polymers are used in the creation of public art. The results of their findings have been published online this week in the journal Polymers.
Writing in Polymers, a team of researchers from Oslo Metropolitan University and the University of Oslo in Norway have investigated the void content characterization and constituent components of composite polymer materials.
