A research team has developed a method for easily synthesizing a self-healing polymer gel made of ultrahigh molecular weight polymers (polymers with a molecular weight greater than 106 g/mol) and ...

In materials science, the molecular weight of polymers is a key property that influences various physical characteristics. Previous studies have demonstrated that benchtop NMR can be used to determine ...

Molecular weight is a main feature employed when characterizing polymer-based products. The term describes the molar mass distribution of polymer chains which can significantly vary within polymers of ...

Researchers have uncovered the origin of polarity inversion, a long-standing phenomenon in polymer semiconductors that occurs only in certain materials. (Nanowerk News) A research team led by Prof.

1. A research team consisting of NIMS, Hokkaido University and Yamaguchi University has developed a method for easily synthesizing a self-healing polymer gel made of ultrahigh molecular weight (UHMW) ...
