When chemists think about polymerization, they typically envision a wormlike polymer growing smoothly and continuously from a catalyst. But the actual view of how polymer growth unfolds has remained ...
The chemical tree got a bit of a shake this week with scientists at IBM announcing the discovery of the first new class of polymer materials in decades. Discovered using a combination of lab ...
Rsearchers who conducted their experiment in a Brisbane backyard have found an unprecedented methodology for the production of microspheres. QUT researchers who conducted their experiment in a ...
Modern tissue engineering requires more than isolated expertise in either biology or mechanics. Justin Jadali approaches ...
State Key Laboratory of Polymer Science and Technology, CIAC CAS has the following research output in the current window (1 December 2024 - 30 November 2025) of the Nature Index. Click on Count to ...
Last semester, assistant professor of chemistry Brooks Abel piloted a lab for Chemistry 12A, “Organic Chemistry,” to demonstrate recycling on a chemical level. Specifically, students decomposed ...
If you look closely at a brick house you’ll notice something very peculiar. All the bricks are layered in a specific pattern. This helps make the house strong! In science we can see something similar ...
Beth Harris, a Raleigh mom, long-time science educator and creator of Fort Kits for Kids, is back with another fun and easy experiment that you can do at home with your kids. All you need is a plastic ...
In science, an unexpected result is not always a failure, but sometimes an opportunity. I found that out as part of my position as a chemist who makes industrial polymers, or plastics. A routine ...
For the past three years a Sandia research team has been investigating the performance of piezoelectric polymer films that might one day become ultra-light mirrors in space telescopes. In 2007, an ...
