pyDMS: A Python package for the determination of physics‐informed dual‐mode sorption (DMS) parameters

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Sorption in glassy polymer membranes is commonly modeled with the dual‐mode sorption (DMS) model. Fitting the DMS model to sorption isotherms presents challenges, as multiple parameter sets may prove satisfactory. This work presents pyDMS, an open‐source Python package for the computation of DMS parameters obtained via a physics‐informed ...

Fine Tuning of Catalyst Active Sites to Access Advanced Ultrahigh‐Melting Polyolefins

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A redesign of the active site of the pyridylamido hafnium (Hf) catalysts can enhance the performance of this catalyst family and unlock previously inaccessible polymer structures. When the catalyst is precontacted with allyltrimethylsilane the active species is modified and the catalyst experiences a new life becoming able to polymerize sterically ...
