The Pennsylvania-based materials supplier Gelest has created a siloxane polymer that is so stretchy, 2 yards of the material could extend across the length of a football field. Jonathan Goff, manager ...

“Ultimately, this is a new class of material,” Goff said. The polymer is soft, strong, and it rebounds to its original shape after being stretched, which makes it an attractive material for flexible ...

A new hydroxyl functional siloxane polymer plant in Carrollton, Kentucky, which will increase Dow’s polymer capacity in the Americas by 65%, providing the latest technology to accelerate innovation ...

Figure 1. A typical polysiloxane structure, where R = CH3, phenyl (aromatic carbon ring), F3CCH2CH2, and CHCH2.(click image to enlarge) Drug-delivery systems are some of the most rapidly proliferating ...

A new inexpensive, quick-drying polymer could lead to dramatic cost savings and efficiency gains in semiconductor manufacturing and computer chip packaging. Along with allowing enhanced performance ...

Euler buckling forms surface microwrinkles ranging in size from sub-micrometers to tens of micrometers as a result of the modulus difference between the surface of the material and the material itself ...

The presented inks are based on siloxane polymers developed in-house at Inkron and can be stretched or thermoformed after curing. The binder technology developed by Inkron allows to manufacture ...

Polyplex formulated with plasmid DNA (pEGFP) and histidine-conjugated PEI via five-armed alkylamino siloxane linker groups efficiently expressed green fluorescent protein, attributed to optimal ligand ...
