University of New Mexico Health Sciences researchers have detected microplastics in human brains at much higher concentrations than in other organs – and the plastic accumulation appears to be growing ...

A new material for high density data storage can be erased ... solid-state drives and flash memory in the future. The low-cost polymer stores data as "dents," making a miniscule code in patterns ...

For example, it is now possible to prepare high molecular weight polymers (molecular weight > 50,000), to control the stereo-structure (tacticity) of the C–C main chain, and to quantitatively ...

Researchers have developed a groundbreaking method to upcycle discarded plastics into new materials with enhanced properties. This innovation not only offers a potential solution to the global plastic ...
