Recipes for three-dimensional (3D) printing, or additive manufacturing, of parts have required as much guesswork as science. Until now. Resins and other materials that react under light to form ...

Polymer precipitation is a crucial process in chemical engineering and is widely applicable to many industries including semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment. In many industries, ...

Polymer fibers are ubiquitous in many spheres of human life. Clothing, apparels, cosmetics, cigarette filters, air conditioning filters, fishing nets, composites, surgical masks, extracorporeal ...

Polymers are known to have excellent chemical resistance, strength, and elasticity. However, these very properties can hinder their chemical analysis. Therefore, the quality control techniques used ...

Different polymer recycling methods, such as chemical recycling and mechanical recycling, can be used to manage plastic waste and minimize its impact on humans and the environment. Polymer recycling ...
