Perovskite quantum dots are among the most celebrated materials in modern nanoscience, prized for their brilliant ...

Research led by a group from the University of Newcastle has found a new way to make silicone surfaces—and control how slippery they are. The work was published in the journal Chemistry of Materials.

Synthetic polymers play a crucial role in cell biology, serving as delivery vehicles for DNA and drugs, acting as fluorescent probes for cellular sensing, functioning as bioinks for tissue engineering ...

A controlled/"living" click polymerization method developed by researchers at the Institute of Science Tokyo and Nagoya University enables precise chain-growth of AB-type monomers—traditionally ...

In the past decade, two-photon polymerization (TPP) based 3D printing has gained popularity for prototype fabrication of micro and nanoscale structures and mechanical metamaterials. However, practical ...

Researchers at Cornell University have devised a new single-molecule microscopy method for studying polymers as they grow (Nat Chem. 2023 DOI: 10.1038/s41557-023-01363-2). “We see every monomer,” says ...

Researchers have developed an interpenetration-transformation strategy that enables topochemical polymerization in ...

Mitsuo Sawamoto is a polymer chemist who has developed "metal-catalyzed living radical polymerization," which uses metal ...
