Posted: Jun 26, 2017: From 1D polymers to 2D polymers (Nanowerk News) Researchers in China report a facile, highly efficient, and versatile strategy for preparation of free-standing ...

2D polymer discovery Date: February 25, 2021 Source: U.S. Army Research Laboratory Summary: Army researchers used computer simulations to compare the thermal stability of the 1D polymer Kevlar, a ...

Feb 25, 2021: Developing 2D polymers (Nanowerk News) Researchers reached a breakthrough in the nascent science of two-dimensional polymers thanks to a collaborative program that enlists the help of ...

The electronic band gap is narrowed when going from the monomer to 1D and 2D surface-confined π-conjugated organic polymers comprising the same building block.

Army researchers used computer simulations to compare the thermal stability of the 1D polymer Kevlar, a 2D polymer called an amide covalent organic framework, and a hypothetical 2D polymer ...

This yielded an undesirable mixture of 1D and 2D polymers. But when the authors preordered the monomer by crystallizing it, the reaction yielded a monocrystalline polymer that was fully conjugated ...

Compared with insoluble 2D or 3D crosslinked porous polymers, the 1D polymer chains show excellent solubility and solution processability. The dissolved PHOF-1 maintains the consecutive 1D chain ...

He suggested that wrapping a polymer coating around each 1D NF in its original 1D state could prevent it from transitioning to 2D sheets, allowing them to fully characterize its structure. His ...

Smooth transition The polymers applied to the reflective surface trap the photon gas in a parabola of light. The narrower this parabola is, the more one-dimensionally the gas behaves. (Artistic ...

Researchers at Westlake University have disclosed a two-dimensional (2D) mechanically interlocked polymer (MIP) that mimics medieval chainmail at the molecular scale. This micrometer-scale 2D ...

Synthetic organic polymers are typically insoluble polycrystalline or amorphous products rather than single crystals. The direct synthesis of single-crystal porous polymers remains a challenge, but ...
