Flexible bio-based polyester blocks transform brittle PLLA into ultra-tough copolymers with high extensibility and industrially relevant strength.

A new generation of polymer aerogels drives significant gains in thermal control across modern industries.

Reconfigurable liquid crystal elastomers use pixel-based director patterns for multi-mode shape morphing in soft robotics and adaptive surfaces.

Rigid polyurethane composites with industrial waste fillers: mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, and machine-learning guided optimization.

From trash to treasure—specialty additives are turning recycled plastics into high-performance materials that challenge brand-new plastics.

High-temp DLP/SLA photopolymer inserts enable hybrid tooling, short-run injection molding, and faster iteration with stable, metal-like performance.

Fouling comes from additive volatility and interfacial energetics. Early shifts in cavity-pressure and ejector-force trends reveal their growth and prompt planned interventions.

This polymer-based soil stabilization method shows potential for stabilizing landslide deposits in complex geological environments, such as southeastern Tibet.

A recent study investigated how additives can reduce odor emissions from wood-plastic composites (WPCs), increasing their applicability for indoor use.

Study reveals hidden PFAS in long-wear cosmetics, exposing health and environmental risks and calling for more transparent labels.
