Fast-scanning atomic force microscopy imaging of the molecule at two different time points shows positional shifts along the polymer chain on the left. On the right, the molecular structure of PEG ...

Scientists solve a long-standing block copolymer research conundrum through polymer chain end modifications. The study garners substantial academic attention by achieving tangible manifestations of ...

The rational development of polymeric structures requires a deep understanding at both molecular and macroscopic scales. Several methods are used to analyze the structure of polymers, such as ...

Rheological measurements are among the simplest and most informative ways to discover the dynamics of polymeric fluids and solids. Linear, or small amplitude, rheology gives a “fingerprint” of the ...

Water behaves in remarkable ways when heated and pressurized beyond its critical point. Under these extreme conditions, known as supercritical water ...

Investigating FKM's stability under pressure reveals critical insights into thermal and oxidative degradation, essential for ...
