To be or become joined together physically: The molecules linked to form a polymer.
Polypropylene (PP), also known as polypropene, is a thermoplastic polymer used in a wide variety of applications. It is produced via chain-growth polymerization
Fabric softeners are formulated to enhance textile softness and impart a pleasant scent. One of the most efficient technologies for controlled fragrance delivery onto fabrics involves encapsulating scent molecules in polymer capsules. Here, we invest...
The swelling equilibrium of Olympic gels, which are composed of entangled cyclic polymers, is studied by Monte Carlo Simulations. In contrast to chemically crosslinked polymer networks, we observe that Olympic gels made of chains with a \emph{larger}...
We investigate the shear elastic modulus of soft polymer foams loaded with hard spherical particles and we show that, for constant bubble size and gas volume fraction, strengthening is strongly dependent on the size of those inclusions. Through an ac...
Spin coating polymer thin films to achieve specific mechanical properties is inherently a multi-objective optimization problem. We present a framework that integrates an active Pareto front learning algorithm (PyePAL) with visualization and explainab...

Pre-preg is a composite material made from "pre-impregnated" fibers and a partially cured polymer matrix, such as epoxy or phenolic resin, or even thermoplastic
Keywords: nonequilibirum phenomena; diffusion in confined systems; dynamics and relaxation in confined systems; entropic transport in confined systems; ion and polymer translocation; forces induced by fluctuations; confined active mater; macromolecul...
In 2015, Francis Comets shared with me a clever way to relate a model of directed last passage percolation with i.i.d. Gumbel edge weights to a special case of the log-gamma directed polymer model. To my knowledge, he never wrote this down. In the wa...

Various countries have adopted different codes. For example, the table below shows the polymer resin (plastic) codes. In the United States there are fewer
An enteric coating is a polymer barrier applied to oral medication that prevents its dissolution or disintegration in the gastric environment. This helps

In this paper, we review the general features of the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of spin glasses. We use this example as a guideline for a brief description of glassy dynamics in other disordered systems like structural and polymer glasses, colloid...

Microscopy of polymer electrolyte membranes that have undergone operation under fuel cell conditions, have revealed a well defined band of platinum in the membrane. Here, we propose a physics based model that captures the mechanism of platinum precip...
A detailed study of poly-[Ni(Salen)] polymer in its oxidized (Ox) and reduced (Red) states was conducted using X-ray photoelectron (XPS) and ultraviolet photoemission (UV PES) spectroscopy, near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectrosc...
Fiber-reinforced plastic is a composite made of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers. A composite is a mixture of two materials, one of which makes the other stronger.
