Smart Polymers for Biomedical Applications [PDF]
Smart materials have the ability to respond to changes in their environment by variations in their molecular structure or in their physicochemical properties. Shape-memory and shape-changing polymers are examples for this class of materials, whose capability to perform stimuli-induced active movements has inspired engineers to develop heat-shrinkable ...

One-step ethylene production from a four-component gas mixture by a single physisorbent
The purification of ethylene is an industrially relevant process. Here, the authors report the one-step separation of ethylene from quaternary gas mixtures of hydrocarbons and CO2 using a single metal–organic framework-based physisorbent.
