Restructuring polymers via nanoconfinement and subsequent release
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2012 During the past several years my students and I have been utilizing certain small-molecule hosts to create nanostructured polymers. This is accomplished by first forming noncovalently bonded inclusion complexes (ICs) between these small-molecule hosts ...

Conjugated Polymers Engineered for Flexible/Stretchable Electronics
Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.This review highlights glass transition temperature (Tg) as the central parameter linking molecular structure to device performance in conjugated polymers. By tuning backbone rigidity, side‐chain architecture, and dynamic bonding, Tg governs the balance between π–π stacking–enabled charge transport and mechanical compliance.

Pore Size and Wettability Control Dissolution Trapping Regimes of CO2 in Nano Porous Media
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.Abstract We simulate supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2 ${\text{scCO}}_{2}$) dissolution in water in nano/submicron pore‐throats (14.3–21.5 nm) using a multi‐component, multiphase pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann model closed by a Peng–Robinson equation of state.
