In the race to develop new weapons, scientists from Texas A&M have created a novel family of antibacterial polymers that can kill 'superbugs' in a way they can't evolve resistance to.

A newly developed family of biodegradable polymers has shown potential for use in intracellular delivery and sustained release of therapeutic drugs to the acidic environments of tumors ...

image: A new family of biodegradable polymers developed at Georgia Tech have several advantages over existing biodegradable polymers. They biodegrade into FDA-approved compounds, such as food ...

Hyperbranched polymers – tree-like molecules – are not particularly useful for the creation of plastic films and molded parts because they don't entangle. So Virginia Tech researchers have ...

After achieving success, the Michaudel Lab put its polymers to the test against two main types of antibiotic-resistant bacteria - E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) - in collaboration with ...

Specific recipes within a polymer family lose a different amount of weight in a vacuum. The higher the weight loss, the greater the potential for contamination in the chamber.

Think of PAEK as the polymer family — Victrex can make different formulations, each with a specific molecular weight, melt temperature and T g — with PEEK being one species. Thus, Victrex developed ...

The report "Cyclic Olefin Polymer Market by Type (Homopolymers, Copolymers), Process Type (Injection Molding, Extrusion), End-use Industry (Packaging, Automotive, Healthcare & Medical, Food ...

AVX has developed a low-profile tantalum solid electrolytic chip capacitor with a conductive polymer electrode that meets the “lead-free 3 × 260°C reflow” requirements. Designated the T case ...
