Polymer chemistry is central to the development of new technologies and substances. Materials based upon natural and synthetic organic macromolecules, polymers, and hybrid derivatives have enormous ...

Polymer chemistry is transforming industries, from sustainable materials to biomedicine. Over his decades as a professor of materials, chemistry and biochemistry at UC Santa Barbara, Craig Hawker’s ...

Electrochemical processes in devices like solar cells, fuel cells, lithium batteries, and water desalination systems rely on the safe, efficient, and robust transport of anions and cations between ...

When recycling plastics, contamination and chemistry conspire to degrade the quality of each recycled generation. In a perfect world, a polymer could be converted to its monomer building blocks, then ...

The goal of the graduate program is to educate incoming students in the theory and practice of polymer science. As a student in our program, you will receive valuable training for a future career in ...

He’s a wizard in his field of chemistry, but his work could also be described using artistic or architectural terms. Nikos Hadjichristidis has pioneered the synthesis of strikingly unusual polymers.

This themed collection presents the latest developments in dynamic polymer networks, focussing on both novel covalent and non-covalent chemistry approaches for their design. To fit in the scope of ...

The US EPA and the ACS Green Chemistry Institute ® have played a major role in promoting research and education in pollution prevention and the reduction of toxics over the past three decades.

The synthesis and self-organization of biological macromolecules is essential for life on earth. Chemists now report the spontaneous emergence of complex ring-shaped macromolecules with low degrees of ...

The Polymer Science doctoral program is designed to provide students with a background in advanced course work and laboratory techniques that will prepare them to carry out an original investigation ...
