UVa researchers have developed a polymer that defies traditional trade-offs between stiffness and stretchability, enabling ...

Students at the University of Virginia School of Engineering and Applied Science have developed a new polymer design that may ...

These "foldable bottlebrush polymer networks" could pave the way for materials that are both robust and highly flexible.

There are many other inorganic polymers that contain main group elements in their backbone [ [1] [2] [3]]. While some of these polymers were discovered long ago, some others are quite recent.

Just as the Metal (Bronze and Iron) Age marked the beginning of a new chapter of human civilization at the end of the Stone Age, the advent of organic polymers in the last century has heralded a new ...

Like many of the novel materials developed in Cai's lab, the foldable bottlebrush polymer is designed to be 3D-printable.

Researchers' new polymer strategy shifts a centuries-old engineering paradigm with a molecular design that doesn't sacrifice ...

A new design by researchers at the University of Virginia School of Engineering and Applied Science could solve the ...

All inorganic NPs share a typical core/shell structure ... The shell is usually made of metals or organic polymers that protect the core from chemical interactions with the external environment ...
