Polymeric membranes are widely used in separation technologies due to their low cost and easily scalable fabrication. However, unlike inorganic nanoporous materials such as metal-organic frameworks ...

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

The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

To control color, the team sandwiched the polymer between two gold films. Light bounces off these films and interferes in ways that create various colors. When the polymer swells to varying extents in ...

New smart polymer signals hidden damage in construction materials without reacting to heat or sunlight ...

In complement to the classical cross-linking polymers which cure thermally, light- and photo-curing polymers are becoming increasingly important in the fields of adhesives, paints and coatings. To ...

Hydrogels, which are soft materials formed by cross-linking polymers, could have a variety of medical applications. In research published in Advanced Science, investigators developed an injectable ...
