Researchers describe a new polymer structure called a bilayer-folded mesophase that has been discovered through a random copolymer sequence. Polymers, large molecules made up of repeating smaller ...

It’s all down to the material’s two-dimensional molecular structure, something once thought to be prohibitively difficult in the world of polymer science. 2D Is Better Than 1D The 2D polymer ...

Plumber's nightmare structure in block polymers Date: January 22, 2024 Source: Pohang University of Science & Technology (POSTECH) Summary: Scientists solve a long-standing block copolymer ...

Researchers at the University of Virginia’s School of Engineering and Applied Science have developed a revolutionary polymer design that challenges a long-standing principle in material science ...

This 2D polymer structure is engineered at a nanoscale, which is measured in nanometers. Monomers with the shape of an X are organized into a crystal structure.

Learn how polymer structure and dynamics influence the movement of water and salts through separation membranes. Then, dive into understanding polyamide based reverse osmosis membranes and how new ...
