Polymer informatics: Integrating data‐driven strategies, advanced machine learning, and automated synthesis for next‐generation polymer design

InfoScience, EarlyView.
Designing new polymers for applications such as sustainable plastics, biomaterials, and 3D printing has traditionally been slow and expensive, relying heavily on trial‐and‐error experiments. This review shows how polymer informatics—the integration of large polymer databases, machine‐learning models, and automated robotic synthesis—enables fast ...

Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometry: Fundamental Principles, Diverse Applications, and the Latest Technological Frontiers

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The review examines the evolution of chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CI‐MS), a technique developed in 1966 by Field and Munson. CI is a soft‐ionization method that produces more intense molecular ions with less fragmentation than electron ionization (EI).

Layer-by-Layer Self-Assembly Marine Antifouling Coating of Phenol Absorbed by Polyvinylpyrrolidone Anchored on Stainless Steel Surfaces

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Marine biofouling is a major problem that contributes to the failure of man-made marine structures. Conventional marine antifouling coatings that release heavy metal ions for antimicrobial purposes are no longer in line with today’s environmental issues.

Polymer and Polymer Composite‐Based Electrochemical Sensors for Real‐Time Detection of River Water Targeted Endocrine Disruptors

Macromolecular Symposia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are pervasive environmental contaminants that interfere with hormone function and pose significant risks to ecosystems and human health. Their presence in river water necessitates sensitive, selective, and real‐time detection methods for effective monitoring and mitigation.
