With the emergence of nanotechnology, researchers become more interested in studying
the unique properties of nanoscale materials. Electrospinning, an electrostatic fiber …

Chitin is the second most important natural polymer in the world. The main sources exploited
are two marine crustaceans, shrimp and crabs. Our objective is to appraise the state of the …

Wound dressings have evolved considerably since ancient times. Modern dressings are
now important systems that combine the physical and biochemical properties of natural and …

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are being increasingly used as selective adsorbents
in different analytical applications. To satisfy the different application purposes, MIPs with …

A supramolecular network polymer consisting of a pair of immiscible polymers, poly (butyl)
methacrylate (PBMA) and polystyrene (PS), is described. A urea of guanosine (1, UG) and 2 …

The highly localized sensitivity of metallic nanoparticles sustaining localized surface
plasmon resonance (LSPR) enables detection of minute events occurring close to the …

We report the effects of the composition on the stretchability and conductivity of poly (3, 4-
ethylenedioxythiophene): poly (styrene sulfonate)(PEDOT: PSS) polymer blends with soft …

Graphene‐based polymer nanocomposites are emerging materials for both fundamental
research and industrial applications. The influence of polymer functional groups on their …

Copolymers consisting of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and methacrylic acid (MAA) and their
layered silicate nanocomposites were electrospun to form fibers with diameters in the sub …

This chapter provides an overview of important aspects of the phenomenology of glass
formation. It present basic notions and derivations of common theoretical models of the glass …
