Researchers have developed a prototype for coral-reef-friendly sunscreens by using polymerization to create large molecules that still block UV radiation but are too big to penetrate our skin, coral, ...

Dispersions of polymer particles in a liquid phase (latexes) have many important applications in coatings technology, medical imaging, and cell biology. A French team of researchers have now developed ...

Photoinduced electron/energy transfer reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization enables precise light-controlled polymer growth. Traditional near-infrared strategies ...
