A high penetration grade bitumen has been blended with up to 50 wt% of two different grades of metallocene catalyzed linear low density polyethylene (m-LLDPE) in order to investigate the potential of these and similar copolymers as a substitute for styrene ...
A definition of macromolecular science (as opposed to polymer science and engineering) is given, from which the year 1930 is derived as the year of its birth. The scope of treatment of this paper will be limited to solid technical polymers. Some important ...
The polymer APFO3 was prepd. with different mol. wts. to study how the infiltration into nanoporous TiO2 films of different thickness depends on the size of the polymer. Also two different sizes of TiO2 nanoparticles were investigated to understand the eff ...
This manuscript describes a versatile, yet experimentally facile, method for producing libraries of polymer coated (core-shell type) gold nanoparticles. The synthetic principle relies on two, sequential postmodification reactions, which ensures homogeneity ...
Hydrophilic polymer brushes grown via surface-initiated ATRP from silicon oxide surfaces are susceptible to detachment via hydrolytic cleavage of the anchoring siloxane bond. This paper investigates the influence of the structure of the ATRP initiator on t ...
The development of various controlled radical polymerization techniques as well as site- and residue specific strategies to modify peptides/proteins with synthetic polymers have made polymer chemistry a powerful tool to address materials problems at the bi ...
The BaylisHillman reaction provides a protective-group-free strategy to heterobifunctional polyesters, which can be further modified via various post-polymerization modification reactions. This contribution explores the BaylisHillman polymerization of 1,3- ...
While the bulk structure of a material determines its mechanical properties, its surface plays a key role when interactions with the environment are important. Nowadays materials in bio- and nanotechnology are required to possess very complex functionaliti ...
During the past decades the field of sensors has been subject to much attention due to an increased demand for (bio)sensors and environmental monitoring. The efforts have been concentrated to create sensors which are reliable, highly sensitive and selectiv ...
The residue-specific modification of peptides and proteins is a powerful strategy for preparing biomolecular-synthetic polymer conjugates with advanced properties. This manuscript aims at expanding the present toolbox of residue-selective protein modificat ...
