As demand for advanced polymeric materials increases, post-functionalization has emerged as an effective strategy for ...

A widely debated topic in biology and fisheries sciences is the role of oxygen in the growth of fish and other ...

The photovoltaic characteristics of an amorphous polymer containing EDOT and fluorene units were investigated. In particular, the effects of the terminal structure, residual amount of Pd, and ...

Figure 2. The structure of common Keggin-type HPA. Given the unique features and rapid development of HPAs-based catalysts in the preliminary degradation of cellulosic biomass with high efficiency, ...

To determine the temperature dependence of the mutual solubility of a polymer and a solvent, the Gibbs free energy of mixing (ΔG mix) is considered that is expressed by the following relation ...

The crystallization of polymer chains is described, and the control of the semicrystalline morphology is discussed. Ferroelectric properties essentially controlled by the structure of the crystals are ...

A study found that some epoxy based SMPs applicable to these structures had a full recovery time of about 80 s for temperatures 20°C above their glass transition temperature. These materials can be ...
