The free-radical bulk polymerization of many monomers is characterized by a sudden rise in the rate of polymerization, a phenomenon called autoacceleration. Many mathematical models have been ...

Figure 1: Design of cysteine mutations to probe low denaturant–induced strand opening in the serpin α 1 AT. Here we use thiol reactivity with a high-molecular-mass polyethylene glycol maleimide ...

A professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering used a lab reactor, liquefied catalyst, and machine learning for more efficient polymerization design. The synthesis of plastic precursors, such as ...

Polymerization in a batch reactor can be easily controlled by monitoring the dielectric properties. Prior studies have demonstrated that the free-radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate can be ...

Supabhorn Khaubunsongserm, a researcher in the process technology research department, explained: “We synthesize catalysts for the production of polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, and ...

Now the MCRE project has revealed the successful completion of its Molten Salt Flow Loop Test Bed, which aims to develop a reactor that can withstand the corrosive effects of molten salt. This closed ...
