Flow Polymers manufactures proprietary and custom chemical dispersions, process aids and homogenizing agents for tire, automotive, industrial products, wire and cable and plastics markets. "Flow ...

New research suggests that thermal switching in smart polymer solutions may depend less on polymer conformation than previously assumed, and more on their nanoscopic environment. (Nanowerk News) A ...

By electrochemically introducing phosphonate ester groups into conductive polymer films, researchers at Science Tokyo have ...

Polymers are huge molecules that are made by connecting a series of alike building blocks at low cost. Manufacturers find them appealing due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of processing and ...

Traditional synthetic polymers contain a distribution of chain lengths and monomer sequences. For applications such as molecular electronics, however, scientists want to create polymers of a specific ...

Polymer fluids are made of long chains of atoms. Scientists have used simulations to discover a special polymer liquid that takes this behavior to the extreme. When researchers elongate necklace-like ...

The world of flow cytometry is getting brighter as Beckman Coulter Life Sciences debuts its new SuperNova polymer dyes, featuring increased brightness and an improved staining index, which can enhance ...

Plastic materials can be found in practically every aspect of everyday life, including packaged foods, furniture, construction materials, vehicles, medical devices, and personal garments (to name a ...

Mumbai | A study by IIT researchers has found that adding tiny, four-armed nanoparticles to certain plastics can significantly reduce their stickiness, making them easier to melt, mix and shape during ...

Princeton researchers have solved a 54-year-old puzzle about why certain fluids strangely slow down under pressure when flowing through porous materials, such as soils and sedimentary rocks. The ...
