With blazing speed and seemingly limitless digital memory, the personal computers of the early 1990s rocketed past those that ranked as state-of-the-art just a couple of years earlier. Within a few ...

Polyoxymethylene is made in both homopolymer and copolymer forms, which are not very different from each other. Both are tough, hard, stiff polymers with good appearance (can give high surface gloss) ...

Urinary tract catheters are widely used in hospitalized patients, but they often lead to bacterial infections. Researchers have now developed a biocompatible copolymer that could prevent bacteria from ...

When drugs are encapsulated, electrification (the electrostatic charge of the capsule) may sometimes cause problems, such as capsule adhesion during transportation or dispersion of the capsule content ...
