Abstract: Supramolecular chirality is achieved in amphiphilic block copolymer films made through two-step fabrication: self-assembling first and then solution coating. The amphiphilic block copolymer is composed of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) (pNIPAM) as hydrophilic segments and poly(methyl methacrylate)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/d2ra02004a
Abstract: The principle of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (PDT) is appealing because it can be controlled by an external light source and possibly the use of durable materials. However, to utilise such surfaces requires a process for… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/polym11030434
Abstract: Crystal orientations, tear strength and shrinkage of Linear Low-Density PolyEthylene (LLDPE) films made with different processes (compressed, cast and blown) were investigated. The films were made with three different LLDPE resins, respectively, which have similar… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/polym14163306
Abstract: Bacterial cellulose (BC) is naturally degradable, highly biocompatible, hydrophilic, and essentially non-toxic, making it potentially useful as a base for creating more sophisticated bio-based materials. BC is similar to plant-derived cellulose in terms of chemical… read more here.
