In biological organisms, polymer chains fold into complex three-dimensional (3D) structures that are capable of performing very precise and specific functions. One well-known example of such a ...

This clip starts with a brief introduction into what polymers are and lists examples of both natural and synthetic polymers. It then goes on to describe what a smart polymer is, before focusing on ...

A structure of the Pd-based initiators was devised, leading to success in improving their activity for C1 polymerization. For example, it is now possible to prepare high molecular weight polymers ...

Examples of polymers include proteins, cellulose, and nucleic acids. The 2D mechanically interlocked material is a polymer structure that uses mechanical bonds—bonds with physical interlocking ...
