MIT researchers have developed a lightweight polymer film that is nearly impenetrable to gas molecules, raising the possibility that it could be used as a protective coating to prevent solar cells and ...

In many parts of the world – particularly developing nations, where air conditioning isn't practical or affordable – people paint buildings' roofs white in order to reflect sunlight and thus keep ...

Polymeric coatings designed for corrosion protection are usually tougher and are applied in heavier films than are appearance coatings. Requirements of such coatings are much more stringent: They must ...

Longer service life thanks to polymer powder coating: the iglide coating designer enables customers to get their individually coated components in just a few clicks. (Source: igus GmbH) The iglide ...

David Keehan sees a lot of similarities between coaching a football team and running a business. And he knows a lot about both. Keehan is president of Advanced Polymer Coatings in Avon, and he was ...

Conservators use polymer coatings to preserve iron artifacts by keeping out moisture and oxygen to prevent corrosion. But a recent study suggests that as they age, such coatings may trigger a cycle of ...

The latest and largest trial to compare durable-polymer versus biodegradable-polymer stents—this time in the setting of acute coronary syndromes—should convince the field once and for all that a ...
