Surface-initiated controlled radical polymerizations have emerged as a powerful and cost-effective approach for fabricating ultrathin polymer films with diverse functionalities. During this free ...

Radiation Research, Vol. 192, No. 2 (August 2019), pp. 219-230 (12 pages) Primary amines form a key component of a well-studied mechanism for capturing carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere. This ...

Blending, grafting, curing, and functionalization are all techniques to modify the characteristics of a polymer. Blending is the process of physically mixing two (or more) polymers to obtain the ...

Bare aromatic polymers have the potential to be used in a wide range of high-performance and functional materials. However, their synthesis is hindered by the poor solubility of their parent compounds ...
