The formation of branched products during polymer synthesis was historically viewed as an unwanted but unavoidable side reaction. More recently, highly branched molecules have been found to exhibit ...

Controlled radical polymerization is a means of manufacturing highly branched three-dimensional macromolecules known as hyperbranched polymers. It might employ inimers, compounds containing an ...

It is well known that the presence of long chain branching (LCB) in a polymer has a large impact on its viscoelastic properties and can affect significantly the processability of the filled rubber ...

Traditional column calibration methods in size exclusion chromatography (SEC) often struggle with accuracy and resolution, especially for complex samples. Multi-angle light scattering (MALS) solves ...

Doctors rely on the drug heparin, a blood thinner, to prevent blood clots during surgery and kidney dialysis. But they also rely on protamine, which binds heparin and blocks its action, to restore ...
