New Study Reveals Key to Sustainable, Eco-friendly Next-generation Polymers for Various Uses

2023.06.27

Supramolecular polymers-the versatile, "next-gen" polymersーoffer potential applications in a variety of fields. However, achieving precise control of their polymerization requires a greater understanding of their self-assembly. Researchers from Chiba University recently studied the impact of different seed/fragment types on polymerization and found that "seed type" influences both the assembly process and the final shape of the structures formed, offering the possibility of developing better and more tailored polymer structures.
