Polyesters from Rapeseed Oil
Researchers in Karlsruhe used plant oils to synthesize renewable long-chain aliphatic polyesters using olefin self-metathesis for the monomer synthesis.
Core-shell particles for acoustic metamaterials by millifluidics
Wunenburger and coworkers at the University of Bordeaux and the CNRS have used millifluidics to create hard core-soft shell microparticles.
Plastics Become Heat Conductors by Lamellar Crystal Alignment
Thermally conductive thermoplastics have attracted attention as heat dissipative materials for a vast number of electronic devices. S. Yoshihara and coworkers (Kaneka Corporation, Japan) now report that thermoplastics exhibit high thermal conductivity by lamellar crystal alignment.
