@acspmse.bsky.socialWhat if a thermoset could be strong and durable in use—but flow like a thermoplastic when it’s time to reprocess it?
That’s the vision behind the winning team’s pioneering work, recognized with the 2027 Cooperative Research Award in Polymer Science & Engineering.
@landfesterdept.bsky.socialBack from Busan! 🇰🇷 Great days at #IUPAC #PSK50 celebrating 50 years of the Polymer Society of Korea. I gave a keynote on adaptive nanomedicine, Huan Dang gave a talk and Laurens Cayé a poster. Superb science, amazing hospitality & a spectacular K-Tigers show! #PolymerScience

@icgmmontpellier.bsky.social🧪 Des polymères qui s’adaptent. Des matériaux qui protègent.
Retour sur les deux séminaires de Melissa & Jaime Grunlan (Texas A&M) à l’ICGM : mémoire de forme pour la régénération osseuse et revêtements multifonctionnels pour la sécurité et les matériaux barrières.

@adam-kowalski.bsky.socialWhy the gap? PP's backbone has more of the carbon structures photo-oxidation attacks easily; PE resists better. Sunlight doesn't destroy plastic evenly — it exploits specific molecular weak points.
