Viscoelastic polymer dynamics and kinetic models represent a vibrant interdisciplinary field that bridges molecular theory with macroscopic flow behaviour in complex fluids. At its core, the subject ...

Kyushu University researchers have directly observed, for the first time, how individual polymers—chain-like molecules—behave when in contact with solid surfaces. Published in the Journal of the ...

Polymers are huge molecules that are made by connecting a series of alike building blocks at low cost. Manufacturers find them appealing due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of processing and ...
