In the realm of materials science, there is a plethora of datasets and tools at our disposal—the issue is how to effectively ...

Well-established regulations have been used worldwide to certify the mechanical characteristics of advanced materials like polymer nanocomposites across different industries. To establish a ...

Predicting the mechanical properties of new polymers after they have been processed into a product can be tricky and typically involves destructive physical testing. Researchers at the National ...

With its diverse portfolio of polymer testing and sensing equipment, Dynisco is bringing rheology to the masses. Rheology is the investigation of the ­flow and deformation behavior of materials when ...

Polymer-based—or plastic—synthetic materials have a hold on the fashion industry, currently making up about two-thirds of all fibers used in textiles with no signs of slowing down. At the same time, ...

A little more than a decade after implantation, patients with mostly stable and unstable angina do similarly well no matter whether their drug-eluting stent did or did not have a polymer, according to ...

Engineering the crystallinity of polymer photocatalysts boosts their sunlight-driven hydrogen production activity, potentially making organic catalysts competitive in green hydrogen production.

Polyethylene is the most widespread and pervasive synthetic polymer used throughout the world, accounting for over a third of the global annual plastic manufacturing output. In recent years, plastic ...
