A persistent driver is the demand for lightweight materials that retain mechanical integrity under thermal and chemical stress. High-performance polymers, exemplified by polyether ether ketone (PEEK), ...

A team from the University of Waterloo in Canada has developed a light, flexible polymer material to serve as a substitute ...

Polymers are used in many engineering applications because they are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and easy to process. On their own, however, they often cannot provide enough resistance to ...

Joshua Lequieu, PhD, assistant professor of chemical and biological, has been awarded a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) in support of his ...
