polympart: Scientists have built a school of robot fish that are powered through the water by human heart cells. Researchers at Harvard University developed the bio-hybrid fish, which is based on a zebrafish, from plastic, paper, gelatin and two strips of living heart muscle. One strip of the muscle is on the left side […]

   polympart :Quantifying the dangers of plastic pollution in the seas and nature, a team of researchers in a new study estimates that about half of the world’s seabirds have ingested plastic additives. The researchers from Japan, the United States and other countries studied 145 seafowls of 32 species from 16 areas of the world. They found brominated […]

polympart: Scientists have developed a completely new soft-yet-strong, squishy materials that named Super Jelly that is capable of regain its authentic form after being run over by a automobile – or to make use of a extra pure instance, after being walked over by an elephant. Made up of 80 % water, the components of […]

polympart :A sugar-containing polymer coating could one day help repair artificial joint implants, like hip replacements, when they are damaged through wear and tear, according to new research. An international team of chemists and engineers, including Durham and York universities, UK, and Tsinghua University, China, has developed the technique for easily repairing low-friction surfaces. Taking […]

polympart :A triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is an energy-harvesting device that converts mechanical energy into electricity through contact separation or relative sliding movements of two opposite tribo-polar materials. Researchers from Inha University previously reported the first example of sulfur backbone polymer-based TENG. The surface of the sulfur copolymer film was directly fluorinated using toxic fluorine gas […]

  Microplastic contamination has been found in 100 percent of water samples collected from Jiaming Lake polympart: Taipei, Oct. 31 (CNA) Microplastic contamination has been found in 100 percent of water samples collected from Jiaming Lake in Taitung, the second highest mountain lake in Taiwan and a main source of drinking water for the Formosan […]

  polympart :The overwhelming amount of rubbish on Australian beaches is plastic. plastic comprises 84 per cent of all rubbish littering Australian beaches A UNSW-led study based on one of the largest marine debris databases in the Southern Hemisphere found plastic comprises 84 per cent of all rubbish littering Australian beaches. More than 2000 organisations […]

  An example of the application of polymers in human life polympart: Polymers are ubiquitous in modern daily life. From rubber tires to plastic water bottles, from waterproof jackets to bulletproof vests, and even non-stick ware are all possible thanks to polymer science. Elastomers or elastic polymers are used in applications where the material must […]

polympart: Despite being frequently described as separate and even competing issues, the climate crisis and plastic pollution are more linked than we used to think, a new study found. Researchers called for governments and policymakers to urgently tackle the two issues together so as to avoid falling short on much-needed solutions. For the first time, […]

  polymeric material combining at the same time two properties polympart: Scientists of Tomsk Polytechnic University jointly with their colleagues from the University of Aveiro (Portugal) and a number of some overseas universities have developed a polymeric material combining at the same time two properties, which are important for further application in medical implants. ,the Biodegradable […]
