Further, we performed MD simulations to probe the impact of poloxamers on bilayer properties and found that polymer-mediated modulation of interfacial tension is a likely mechanism driving changes in ...

and that other synthetic polymers behave similarly. The present communication describes effects observed with polyethylene and polyamides.

"We've discovered that when many bacteria grow in fluids containing spaghetti-like molecules called polymers, such as mucus in the lungs, they form cable-like structures that intertwine like ...

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 ...

The second has an average depth of about (P 2 = 414 µm) and belongs to the diffusion layer where the nitrogen diffuses and forms finely distributed precipitates of Fe and Cr nitrides in a ...

We propose a highly coarse-grained simulation model for crystalline polymer solids with lamellar structures. The mechanical properties of a crystalline polymer solid are mainly determined by the ...
