Finding the next groundbreaking polymer is always a challenge, but now researchers are using artificial intelligence (AI) to shape and transform the future of the field.

Scientists have created a new family of polymers capable of killing bacteria without inducing antibiotic resistance -- a major step in the fight against superbugs like E. coli and MRSA.

The articles listed below published by authors from Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPI-P), organized by journal and article, represent the research output in Count and Share according ...

Thanks to a National Science Foundation CAREER award, Laure Kayser, an assistant professor in the College of Engineering’s Department of Materials Science and Engineering, will be conducting ...

Polymers are both naturally occurring and man-made. Learn more and explore polymers with ECHO’s Science Spotlight activity you can do at home.

My research focuses on the degradation of blended polymers provided by the Packaging Science Department at RIT. These blended polymers are made with polycaprolactone (a slow-degrading synthetic ...
