Many Na-ion batteries still fall below expectations and below that of commercially available batteries. For large-scale ...

To build their self-reproduction structures, the team began with an aqueous solution containing monomers to be polymerized, a ...

Engineers developed a membrane that filters the components of crude oil by their molecular size, an advance that could dramatically reduce the amount of energy needed for crude oil fractionation.

Sequence-controlled polymers are an emerging class of synthetic polymers with a regulated sequence of monomers. In the past decade, tremendous progress has been made in the synthesis of polymers, with ...

They additionally assessed whether the polymers could remain stable throughout the process required to form them into microparticles ... These included the type of monomers that go into the ...

MIT scientists have developed polymer microparticles that release vaccine doses over time, offering a single-shot solution ...

New polymer microparticles can be used to deliver vaccines at different times. The work could lead to childhood vaccines given just once, eliminating the need for booster doses.

Building on their previous work on polyurethane-based data storage, the researchers created a series of four monomers ... Radboud University who researches polymer-based data storage but was ...

Around the world, 20 percent of children are not fully immunized, leading to 1.5 million child deaths each year from diseases that are preventable by ...

A large US cohort study found that higher intakes of flavonoid-rich foods, such as tea, apples, berries, citrus, and red wine ...

To make it easier for children to receive all of their vaccines, MIT researchers are working to develop microparticles that ...

Poly(methyl methacrylate)/poly(methacrylamide) copolymer (PMMA-co-PMAA) was synthesized by a free radical copolymerization of MMA and MAA monomers in methylethyl ...
