Researchers optimized then evaluated the reliability and robustness of a bioceramic manufacturing process based on the impregnation of 3D-printed mold.
High-Performance Supercapacitors from Nickel Foam
Researchers from Singapore have grown nanoporous nickel sulfide on nickel foam to generate promising electrodes for supercapacitors.
Lighting up enzymatic drug release by FRET
A new generation of enzyme-responsive HPMA copolymer-drug conjugates employing a enzyme-sensitive oligopeptide linker was developed. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) was applied to investigate the enzyme-responsive performance in both cells and animals.
Bending Fatigue Testing of Titanium for Dental Implants
Equal Channel Angular Pressing is applied to commercial purity titanium to increase its ability to resist failure due to cyclic loads.
A new ultralight magnesium alloy with a great promise for structural and biomedical applications
Developing increasingly lighter and stronger alloys for engineering applications is an ongoing – and never ending – endeavour of materials scientists.
A novel probe for in vivo sialome imaging
Researchers in China have developed a novel probe for in vivo sialome imaging. Based on the click reaction the fluorophore is generated in situ.
Shaping up polyphosphazenes: star dendritic molecular brushes
In a new study, researchers from the Johannes Kepler University in Linz, Austria, present for the first time a synthetic route to prepare polyphosphazenes with globular, highly branched morphologies (so called “star dendritic molecular brushes”) and controlled size.
Can Polymers Regenerate Teeth?
A common goal for tissue engineering has been finding a way to regenerate and repair the inflamed tissues.
Journal of Polymer Science Poster Prize at the 2016 APS March Meeting
Four outstanding young polymer scientists were awarded the 2016 Journal of Polymer Science poster prize for the Division of Polymer Physics (DPOLY) at the March American Physical Society (APS) meeting.
