Ionomers are hydrophobic polymers that contain a small fraction of ionic groups. The ionic groups form multiplets or polar micro-domains in bulk, which confers the unique properties of crack and ...

The sequential synthesis mechanism involving colloidal solutions of metal ions such as nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) along with benzenehexathiol (BHT) solution can generate highly ...

Researchers employ a single-phase reaction of metal ions and an organic compound to create conductive, well-organized colloidal coordination nanosheets. (Nanowerk News) Coordination nanosheets are a ...

THE scattering of light in colloidal solutions is a fundamental property, which depends upon the size, shape, and nature of the colloidal particles, and is therefore expected to reveal the intimate ...

(Nanowerk News) Extrusion-based 3D printing/bioprinting is a promising approach to generating patient-specific, tissue-engineered grafts. However, a major challenge in extrusion-based 3D printing and ...
