Polyisocyanides are polymers distinguished by their helical structures, where the helix's winding direction (right- or left-handed) can be controlled through catalysts designed for synthesizing chiral ...

ACOMP is an automated smart manufacturing system that continually analyzes polymers during production, providing real-time data on reaction kinetics and polymer parameters such as residual monomer, ...

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 ...

A recent study published in Nature by researchers at Cornell University presents a recyclable and degradable alternative to conventional thermoset plastics using a bio-sourced monomer, dihydrofuran ...

Nanoreactors are nanoscale structures that enable chemical reactions by providing either a confined environment or active surface areas for reactants to interact. While some nanoreactors offer ...
