Polymers revolutionized materials science by enabling engineered molecular structures, leading to innovations in manufacturing, medicine, and sustainability.

Beyond Anticancer Therapeutics: Polymer–Drug Conjugates for the Treatment of Diseases other than Cancer In the last decade, the field of polymer–drug conjugates has expanded towards novel therapeutic ...

Researchers' new polymer strategy shifts a centuries-old engineering paradigm with a molecular design that doesn't sacrifice stretchability for stiffness. Researchers at the University of Virginia ...

Crude oil refining still relies heavily on thermal distillation, a process that separates hydrocarbons by repeated heating and phase changes. A new review highlights a promising alternative: ...

Hundreds of millions of tons of single-use plastic ends up in landfills every year, and even the small percentage of plastic that gets recycled can’t last forever. But our group of materials ...

In ring-slippage, the number of atoms from a carbon ring involved in a particular bond changes. Multiple ring-slippage in 18-electron metallocenes is rare due to their stability, but as seen in this ...
