Electrically switchable adhesion in a ferroelectric polymer film enables clean, fast, solvent-free transfer of graphene from copper growth substrates to target surfaces.

A scientist wears a lab coat and gloves and adjusts scientific instrumentation in a laboratory. Researchers have developed a strong ultrathin polymer membrane that totally stops gas molecules from ...

Thermoplastic films have been used in flexible medical product applications since the 1960s, when plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) blood storage bags replaced glass bottles. 1 In the 1970s, PVC ...

A research team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has built an all-polymer organic solar cell based on high–quality blend films with enhanced crystallinity and inter–penetrating nanofibers ...

Researchers developed tiny wearable devices for cells that can snugly enfold neurons and neuronal processes without damaging the cell. These thin-film wearables, made from a soft polymer, could enable ...
