For most of the solar industry’s modern history, progress has been framed as a story of physics. Higher efficiencies came ...

Macromolecular and materials chemistry explores the synthesis, architecture and function of large molecular assemblies and composite systems. By controlling monomer composition, polymerisation ...

Polymer chemistry is transforming industries, from sustainable materials to biomedicine. Over his decades as a professor of materials, chemistry and biochemistry at UC Santa Barbara, Craig Hawker’s ...

Rheological measurements are among the simplest and most informative ways to discover the dynamics of polymeric fluids and solids. Linear, or small amplitude, rheology gives a “fingerprint” of the ...

The words on this page mean something because they are assembled in a particular order and follow the complex rules of ...

The real test of any new quantum chemistry method is whether it can explain or predict behavior in materials that matter for technology. In this case, the LAS‑based approach has already been applied ...

Azides are chemical compounds widely used in synthetic organic chemistry, pharmaceutical sciences, and materials chemistry. However, conventional synthesis methods for azide compounds have severe ...

Advances in a field of research known as reticular chemistry could provide a breakthrough solution to the growing water scarcity crisis in the western United States. Material science researchers have ...

Are there any exciting practical applications for electrochemistry on the horizon or that people might encounter in their everyday lives and might not even realize? The first application is the ...

The field of macromolecular and materials chemistry encompasses the synthesis, structure, and properties of large molecules and their assemblies, as well as the design of complex materials with ...
