and which are held in place by the crosslinked polymer matrix. In essence, a molecular memory is imprinted on the polymer, which is capable of selectively binding the target. Thus, MIPs possess ...
By trapping silver nanoparticles within a polymer matrix, researchers can manipulate particle size and, consequently, the color emitted under UV light. Larger polymer nets yield silver ...
Bond failures can have severe consequences for manufacturers, including increased scrap rates, damage to brand reputation, costly warranty claims and even safety hazards. These failures often stem ...
Researchers have proposed using polymer membranes modified with copper, zinc, and chromium metal ions for water purification. These polymers were used for the first time in water purification via ...
When combined, they create a material with properties greater than the sum of its parts. Examples include polymer, ceramic, and metal matrix composites. Fibre-reinforced polymers (FRPs) are a subset ...
