A South Korean research team has, for the first time, uncovered the molecular-level mechanism by which trace amounts of impurities—known as dopants—can reverse charge polarity in organic polymer ...

A new study turns long-held conventional wisdom about a certain type of polymer on its head, greatly expanding understanding of how some of biochemistry's fundamental forces work. The study opens the ...

Polypyrrole, poly(phenylacetylene), poly(p-phenylene sulfide), poly(p-phenylene), polythiophene, polyfuran, polyaniline, polycarboxylate, and its derivatives are some ...

Researchers have generated synthetic mucins with a polymer backbone that more accurately mimics the structure and function of naturally occurring mucins. They also showed that these synthetic mucins ...

Due to their optoelectronic properties, conjugated polymers play a crucial role in flexible electronics, organic light-emitting technology, and organic photovoltaics. These specialty polymers, however ...
