Isotactic polypropylene (iPP) remains one of the most important polymers in modern industry, valued for its exceptional combination of strength, stiffness and impact resistance. Its highly regular ...

Isotactic polypropylene (iPP), the number-two commercial polymer, was known for decades to adopt three crystalline forms, α, β, and γ, and in the past decade a fourth form, δ, was identified. Now, a ...

Polypropylene (PP) is one of the most widely used plastics in the world. By controlling the spatial orientation of the propylene building blocks and additional polar components, it should be possible ...

To address plastic pollution plaguing the world's seas and waterways, chemists have developed a new polymer that can degrade by ultraviolet radiation. To address plastic pollution plaguing the world's ...
