Polymer chemistry continues to evolve through the design and synthesis of complex macromolecular architectures that underpin a broad spectrum of advanced materials. Brush polymerization, a specialised ...

Polymer chemistry is transforming industries, from sustainable materials to biomedicine. Over his decades as a professor of materials, chemistry and biochemistry at UC Santa Barbara, Craig Hawker’s ...

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 ...

Supramolecular chemistry leverages non‐covalent interactions to assemble discrete molecular components into complex, dynamic architectures. In the context of polymers, this approach enables the ...

HYDRACs are a class of proteomimetic polymers designed to mark harmful proteins, like MYC and KRAS, for destruction rather than merely block their activity.

Electrochemical processes in devices like solar cells, fuel cells, lithium batteries, and water desalination systems rely on the safe, efficient, and robust transport of anions and cations between ...

MAT_SCI 431 introduces the core topics and basic concepts of polymer chemistry for materials scientists and engineers. This course covers introductory topics in macromolecular structures and ...

A recent study by researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo unveils the molecular mechanisms explaining why some "stealth" drug coatings fail to evade the immune system. Using single-molecule atomic ...

While this scanning electron microscope image may look like a harbinger of doom—perhaps a symptom of a haunted instrument or a cursed lab—Gustavo Porrata Caraballo says there’s a perfectly rational ...
