CERTAIN monomers, when irradiated in the solid state, polymerize only to a limited conversion. When aerylonitrile is irradiated with γ-rays at −196° C it appears impossible to polymerize the ...

Ethylene copolymers are polymers that have ethylene as one of its monomer bases. They are used in packaging, sporting goods, shoe-soles, and as superplasticizers in cement production to improve flow ...

Tomonori Saito, an ORNL polymer chemist, will speak on using discarded plastic to make better products through 3D printing.

It is also possible to obtain permanently anti-static polymer blends using polymers with -SH or -OH functional groups. For instance, blending ethylene oxide-co epichlorohydrin with ABS/PC ...
