In the race for lighter, safer and more efficient electronics—from electric vehicles to transcontinental energy grids—one component literally holds the power: the polymer capacitor. Seen in such ...

Precision is key to innovations in the plastics and polymers space. The quality and consistency of polymers directly impact the functionality of these materials, whether this is in everyday items like ...

Researchers create 'living' polymers that grow, degrow, and reprogram their properties after fabrication using reversible chemistry and light-activated catalysts.

Current capacitors often require dedicated cooling loops to keep them operating within a safe temperature range. If the capacitor itself can withstand the heat of an engine block or a high-voltage ...

Europe and North America are driving expansion of bio-based polymer and bio-based building block capacity while Asia remains ...

Most polymers don’t mix—and that’s the point. Polymer alloys succeed by engineering the interface: use thermodynamics to predict separation, processing to sculpt morphology, and compatibilizers to ...

Superior cost-to-performance ratio, resilience, and versatility are the core reasons behind the success of polymers in every major field. However, their inherent properties need to be modified as per ...

A new report titled ‘Bio-based Building Blocks and Polymers – Global Capacities, Production and Trends 2025–2030’ has been compiled by nova-Institute. The report forecasts that the expansion of the ...

Katherine Harry receives funding from RePLACE (Redesigning Polymers to Leverage a Circular Economy) funded by the Office of Science of the US Department of Energy. Emma Rettner receives funding from ...
