DHF undergoes slow ring-opening metathesis polymerization to give a soft polymer; then, exposure to light triggers strong acid generation and promotes the cationic polymerization of the same DHF ...

Plastic waste is a growing environmental crisis, with thermosets among the most problematic materials. These durable plastics, used in car tires, replacement hip joints, and aerospace coatings, resist ...

Although various synthetic techniques exist, none are universally applicable. We will also elaborate on emulsion polymerization, a commonly used method adopted in the coatings industry for producing ...

We therefore propose the development of a vanishing surface strategy in which cationic liposomes efficiently capture nucleic acids. A lipoplex is formed that can be easily centrifuged down and washed ...

According to Fors, the corresponding author, it's also remarkable chemistry that initiates two polymerization processes from one monomer base. The Fors group studies dihydrofuran (DHF), a monomer ...
