The kinetics of styrene-free radical bulk polymerization was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The data obtained from DSC thermograms were used to model and predict the ...

Many materials in the modern world--from the plastics that dominate it to the electronic chips that drive it--are constructed of polymers. Given their ubiquity and the evolving requirements of our ...

A controlled/“living” click polymerization method developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo and Nagoya University enables precise chain-growth of AB-type monomers—traditionally limited to ...

A protocol for ring-opening metathesis polymerization, or ROMP, that uses organic initiators rather than transition-metal catalysts has been developed. The new polymerization method could be a boon to ...

Researchers continue to explore ways to improve the performance of solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) for lithium metal batteries (LMBs), aiming to develop more efficient and sustainable energy storage ...
