A simple burst of visible light can now create skin-safe electrodes that could transform medical and wearable electronics.

Olefin metathesis reactions are metal-mediated carbon–carbon (C–C) double bond exchange processes, 1, 2 which were discovered in the mid 1950s. Chauvin proposed the commonly accepted mechanism for ...

Visible light can be used to create electrodes from conductive plastics completely without hazardous chemicals. This is shown ...

Researchers in Sweden have unveiled a way to create high-performance electronic electrodes using nothing more than visible light and specially designed water-soluble monomers. This gentle, ...

The project has now succeeded in creating a method where polymerization can be driven by visible light, thanks to specially designed monomers developed by the researchers. This visible light ...

Given a choice, manufacturers of high-performance composites might prefer to make parts for a variety of applications from reinforced thermoplastics rather than reinforced thermosets. Thermoplastics ...

Solutions of 1,6-hexanediamine and sebacoyl chloride are poured carefully into the same container. Nylon polymer forms at the interface of the two layers and can be pulled continuously from the ...

A team of researchers at Oregon State University created a quick-setting, environmentally friendly alternative to concrete ...
