Here, we explore eight reasons to choose high-performance polymers in additive manufacturing. The goal is to understand why ...
Polymer matrix composites (PMCs) are made by reinforcing a polymer-based matrix with glass, carbon, or aramid fibers. PMCs are classified into thermosetting and thermoplastic resins based on the type ...
The sources of natural polymers can be plant-based, animal-based, and marine-derived. For instance, plant-based polymers like cellulose are widely used in paper and textile industries for their ...

Laser-tuned polymer surface switches between cooling and heating modes without consuming electricity
Researchers at Seoul National University have unveiled a thermal management technology capable of selectively implementing ...
Instead of starting with metal-containing resins, the EPFL team first creates a 3D scaffold using a simple water-based gel, ...
Soft materials and polymers are ubiquitous in our lives and form the basis of many advances in medicine, sustainability, manufacturing, and clean water access. What makes these materials unique is ...
Plastics, by and large, are well-understood materials. Not as strong as most metals, but often much lighter, these man-made polymers have found innumerable applications that have revolutionized the ...
