Dispersity in Polymer Science (IUPAC Recommendations 2009) [PDF]
This recommendation defines just three terms, viz., (1) molar-mass dispersity, relative-molecu- lar-mass dispersity, or molecular-weight dispersity; (2) degree-of-polymerization dispersity; and (3) dispersity.

Properties of polypyrrole polyvinilsulfate films for dual actuator sensing systems [PDF]
One of the challenges of modern science is the development of actuators able to sense working conditions while actuation, mimicking the way in which biological organs work. Actuation of those organs includes nervous (electric) pulses dense reactive gels,

Dispersing Nanoparticles in a Polymer Film via Solvent Evaporation [PDF]
Large scale molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the dispersion of nanoparticles (NPs) in a polymer film during solvent evaporation. As the solvent evaporates, a dense polymer-rich skin layer forms at the liquid/vapor interface, which is either NP rich or poor depending on the strength of the NP/polymer interaction.

Equilibrium characteristics of semiflexible polymer solutions near probe particles [PDF]
We present a numerical analysis of the mean-field theory for the structure of semiflexible polymer solutions near spherical surfaces, and use the framework to study the depletion characteristics of semiflexible polymers near colloids and nanoparticles ...
