Many naturally occurring polyelectrolytes of importance in diverse biological functions have the form of bottlebrush polymers, and there is correspondingly...
Solid state refrigeration based on caloric effect has been regarded as an attractive alternative to conventional gas compression technique. Boosting the caloric...
The rheology of crystallizing polymers is critical to polymer processing, but our current understanding of how crystallinity affects rheology during...
