By adjusting the polystyrene chain size, as well as precisely where and how many chains were affixed to each facet of the ...

The main chain stiffness parameter (λM−1) is determined to be 197 nm for poly(MA-HIC-61-Ac), which is approximately three times greater than that for poly(VB-HIC-62-H), which has a polystyrene ...

The space available to each polystyrene chain depended on its position in the structure—and, therefore, determined how much it tangled together with its neighbors.

Unbound (free) deuterated polystyrene (dPS) ... and transferred on hPS brush surface. The spin-coated dPS would form a relatively collapsed chain structure.

The space available to each polystyrene chain depended on its position in the structure—and, therefore, determined how much ...

When irradiated with a high-power blue-violet LED, the acid reacts with the polystyrene to form reactive oxygen species, which then cause a chain reaction that breaks up polystyrene’s strong bonds.

Polystyrene has a glass transition temperature of about 100 C -- at room temperature it behaves like a solid material. But as its temperature approaches the glass transition temperature ...
