Abstract: The impact of crystallinity on the electret charge stability in binary blends of polypropylene (PP) homopolymers was been investigated with mechanical, rheological, calorimetric, and ...

The control of main-chain stereocenters in synthetic polymers remains a longstanding challenge, with traditional polymerization methods typically yielding only three types of well-defined ...

Scientists often seek new materials derived from polymers. Rather than starting a polymer search from scratch, they save time and money by blending existing polymers to achieve desired properties. But ...

ITHACA, N.Y. -Cornell University researchers have developed an inexpensive and potentially scalable approach that uses a commercially available peroxide to bind polyethylene and polypropylene together ...

Some examples of narcissistic behavior include inflating one’s accomplishments to gain praise, ignoring other people’s feelings, and deliberately taking credit for someone else’s work. Narcissistic ...

Community driven content discussing all aspects of software development from DevOps to design patterns. The best way to teach the concept of Java user input to new software developers is to show them ...

Researchers have developed an adhesive polymer that is stronger than current commercially available options while also being biodegradable, tunable, and reusable. The findings show how the common, ...

The ACS GCI Natural Polymers Consortium (NPC) is a group committed to exploring the utilization of natural polymers to accelerate the development of more sustainable functional materials. Launched in ...

The effects of plastic on the three planetary crises of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental pollution: scientific knowledge is still patchy and unevenly distributed. The United Nations ...

The word demure, seemingly out of nowhere, exploded online this month and sparked a cultural conversation. The beauty influencer who started the viral trend, Jools Lebron, told "CBS Mornings" about ...
