Abstract: Biomass-originated materials are the future's next-tier polymers. This work suggests improving mechanical and barrier properties of nature-sourced polymers using non-covalent supramolecular interactions. Polysaccharide chitosan was modified with amino acids via an esterification pathway using a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.polymer.2020.123252
Abstract: Abstract Biological macromolecules such as nucleic acids and proteins are homochiral, display monodisperse chain length with mega, multimillion, molecular weight and encode functions by their precise sequence via self-organization. The functions of biological macromolecules are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsami.2c10404
Abstract: Network topologies, especially some high-order topologies, are able to furnish cross-linked polymer materials with enhanced properties without altering their chemical composition. However, the fabrication of such topologically intriguing architectures at the macromolecular level and in-depth… read more here.
