This approach significantly enhanced PVA's hydrophobic properties, making it more suitable for high-humidity conditions. Past work highlighted the need for biodegradable polymer films ...

Professor Cosgrove and his team developed new polymers that can be used in both hydrophilic (dissolvable in water) and hydrophobic (not dissolve in water) environments, a property that proved to be ...

“The metal oxide nanoparticles are well dispersed in the PDMS polymer,” the scientists explained. “Through the hydrophobic chain of PDMS, PDMS-SiO2 nanoparticles cross-link with one ...

In this video interview with Xiao Su, he dives deeper into the research that he and his team are conducting with redox-active polymers and the applicability of electrochemical approaches in separation ...
