Superior cost-to-performance ratio, resilience, and versatility are the core reasons behind the success of polymers in every major field. However, their inherent properties need to be modified as per ...

A nanocomposite combines two or more materials – of which at least one is a nanomaterial – with different physical and chemical properties. Nanocomposite materials are designed to exhibit properties ...

Plastics are materials comprising of a wide variety of synthetic and semi-synthetic organic polymers, which are malleable and easily molded to different shapes. Due to their low cost, ease of ...

2D polymers are a novel class of nanomaterials that combine the structural features of polymers with the two-dimensional geometry of graphene and other 2D materials. These polymers consist of ...

Effect of molecular weight toward tensile properties in the present biobased polyesters, HP1. The plots of PE-18,18 (polyester-18,18, reported biobased), and ...

Imagine a plastic bag that can carry home your groceries, then quickly degrade without harming the environment. Or a super-strong, lightweight plastic for airplanes, rockets, and satellites that can ...
