Since its commercialization in the 1980s, polyether ether ketone (PEEK) became one of the most valued engineering thermoplastics characterized by an unusual combination of high-temperature performance ...

Mesua ferrea L. seed oil-modified polyester with hyperbranched polyether core was prepared by the polycondensation technique, which involved carboxyl-terminated prepolymer of the monoglyceride of ...

Tilting the scales at 4.7 megadaltons and reaching 1 micron in length, the newly discovered algal enzyme PKZILLA-1 is the largest protein ever identified in biology. Indeed, PKZILLA-1 is 25% ...

Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is a high temperature semi-crystalline thermoplastic. PEEK was developed by ICI in 1982. This polymer has the ability to be used continuously to a temperature of 250°C ...

BASF has now improved the process for manufacturing Lupranol® (polyether polyol) so that car components which are made of BASF polyurethane systems emit an average of 20 percent less aldehyde. This ...
