The polymer’s slow hydrolysis facilitates the sustained release of the immunogen, stabilizing the antigen encapsulated within the microspheres. As a result, microspheres ranging from 40 µm to 70 µm in ...

This article discusses the identification of polymers such as ABS, PE, PS, PET, and PMMA in various dyes using Raman spectroscopy. Rapid and non-destructive identification is achieved once a suitable ...

A surprising number of scientific discoveries were made accidentally — some famous examples are Velcro, vulcanized rubber, and PTFE, better known under the Teflon brand name. Thanks to researchers at ...

Polymers are materials composed of repeated chains of molecules. Both natural and synthetic polymers possess many important properties that are influenced by the conformation and composition of ...
