Researchers describe a new polymer structure called a bilayer-folded mesophase that has been discovered through a random copolymer sequence.

Plumber's nightmare structure presents itself as an assemblage where all exits seem to converge inward -- a plumber's nightmare but an anticipated uniqueness for researchers, suggesting ...

Another key strength of this design is its versatility. The bottlebrush polymer structure can be tailored using different side-chain materials to meet specific needs.

The 2D polymer material assembles itself into sheets. The hope is that the ultra-strong material could have applications as a protective coating or in composite material use.

Scientists Create Armor-Like Polymer That's Stronger Than Steel But as Flexible as Fabric Visualize wearing a chainmail, but it's lightweight.

Iran has ordered tons of ballistic missile materials from China amid tense negotiations with the United States over the future of its nuclear program, according to a report.

Materials science and engineering researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have explored the role of helical secondary structure on the conductivity of solid-state peptide ...
