Conjugated polymers containing isoindigo electron acceptor groups have gained attention for electrochromic (EC) applications in recent years. To obtain a deeper fundamental understanding of the EC properties of isoindigo-based conjugated...
Retraction of ‘Non-thermal microwave effects in radical polymerization of bio-based terpenoid (meth)acrylates’ by Thibault Castagnet, et al., Polym. Chem., 2020, 11, 6840–6846, DOI: 10.1039/D0PY01192D.
Photolabile groups are the key components of photo-responsive polymers, dynamically tunable materials with multiple applications in materials and life sciences. They usually consist of a chromophore and a labile bond...
Poly(siloxane-carborane)s are a class of polymeric materials which can be used for harsh environments. Poly(cyclosiloxane-carborane)s were prepared through hydrosilylation of cyclosiloxane and vinyl modified carborane cage. The structure of as-prepared...
We developed new macromolecular engineering approaches enabling the preparation of star-like polypeptoids by ring-opening polymerization. Parallely to the evaluation of their cytotoxicity of the HepG2 human cell line, their screening...
Polymer molecular weight, or chain length distributions, are a core characteristic of a polymer system, with the distribution being intimately tied to the properties and performance of the polymer material....
A series of high molecular weight copolyesters PExBTyAm were synthesized by a simple and economical two-step polycondensation method, and for the first time we found that the copolyesters exhibited an green fluorescence under 365 nm UV light.
