The reaction between sulfur and dicyclopentadiene was optimised to form a shelf stable and soluble low molecular weight oligomer. After a simple curing process at 140 °C the material was rendered insoluble and resistant to acids and solvents. Taking advantage of the soluble oligomer, a metal surface was coated with the dissolved material which was then cured to show that a copolymer layer can act as a corrosion resistant material. Further, silica gel was coated with the soluble oligomer to test mercury removal applications. Even after curing, the polymer coated silica was an effective mercury sorbent. Additionally, the sorbent was also used to remove mercury form a diesel and water mixture indicating that mercury removal from a mixture of organic and aqueous substances is possible with this system.

Corncob lignin was efficiently depolymerized in an isopropanol–water mixture with NaOH as catalyst into bio-polyols with low molecular weight and suitable hydroxyl number in view of the preparation of a bio-based rigid polyurethane foam.

Polymer composite materials (PCМ) based on low molecular weight siloxane rubber SKTN-A have been developed, which are supposed to be used as osteoplastic materials in maxillofacial surgery. The following materials were used as fillers for the creation of PCM: bentonite, sepiolite, wollastanite. The effect of the type and content of filler on the curing process and the properties of the resulting compositions was investigated.

As a result of research conducted, compositions have been developed using PO-300 low-molecular-weight polyamide as the curing agent for epoxy oligomers, ensuring a reduction in the toxicity of the curing process and an increase in the physicomechanical properties.

The earliest account of the contamination of electron microscope specimens by the deposition of carbonaceous material during electron irradiation was published in 1947 by Watson who was then working in Canada. It was soon established that this carbonaceous material is formed from organic vapours, and it is now recognized that the principal source is the oil-sealed rotary pumps which provide the backing vacuum. It has been shown that the organic vapours consist of low molecular weight fragments of oil molecules which have been degraded at hot spots produced by friction between the vanes and the surfaces on which they slide. As satisfactory oil-free pumps are unavailable, it is standard electron microscope practice to reduce the partial pressure of organic vapours in the microscope in the vicinity of the specimen by using liquid-nitrogen cooled anti-contamination devices. Traps of this type are sufficient to reduce the contamination rate to about 0.1 Å per min, which is tolerable for many investigations.
