43. Leveling the cost and carbon footprint of circular polymers that are chemically recycled to monomer

Image
        Here we present a novel type of article; the authors describe the whole process of design of a plant for recovering polymeric resin . They detaille the problem and dive into the technical considerations, as well as the economic balance, which is usually a topic forgotten by scientist, but also important and engaging. We hope you like the work.  Anchor / Google Podcasts / iVoox / Spotify & much more SPANISH AUDIO (1/2) Introduction & Material & Methods - Leveling the cost and carbon footprint of circular polymers that are chemically recycled to monomer Anchor / Google Podcasts / iVoox / Spotify & much more SPANISH AUDIO (2/2) Results & Discussion - Leveling the cost and carbon footprint of circular polymers that are chemically recycled to monomer Picture of  William Stanley Jevons (1835-1882), english economist and philosopher Published in Science Advances on 9 th april 2021 Nemi Vora, Peter R.

42. Supramolecular tripeptide self-assembly initiated at the surface of coacervates by polyelectrolyte exchange

          We are so proud of sharing this article from a recommendation of a follower. We also open a tag “Self-assembly” which is always exciting. In the article, the authors explore the idea of copying biological structures by forcing polymeric molecules to bond to each other in a certain way. Take a listen to the podcast because the approach is simple but genius.
