To test the new system, the researchers printed a small, working model of a human knee joint. It had rigid “bones” and ...

Inspired by how nature blends toughness and flexibility, such as the rigid structure of bone surrounded by pliable cartilage, all with elegant and precise geometric properties, researchers at The ...

Light-responsive organic functional materials, especially photochromic materials and room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials, have emerged as key players recently for driving advancements in ...

For example, itaconic acid can be used to create homopolymers and copolymers through radical polymerization reactions. (15−17) In addition, monoesters of itaconic acid have been used as an alternative ...
