The Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE) recently hosted its annual event in Baltimore, bringing together over 150 professionals focused on the pressing issue of PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances).

The editor’s choice for November 2024 in SPE’s Polymer Engineering & Science journal is Anatoly E. Chalykh’s article, “Supramolecular Structure of Epoxy Oligomers.”

Researchers at the University of Manchester developed an innovative biocomposite specifically designed for extraterrestrial construction needs.

Bioinspired hydrogels show promise in developing artificial photosynthesis. This can provide solutions to complex challenges in sustainable energy and hydrogen generation.

Industry 6.0 represents the next evolution in manufacturing, driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and autonomous decision-making robots, known as infobots. The progression of injection molding technology and its integration with advanced robotics offer greater efficiency and sustainability.

A new generation of high-performance materials from the University of Bristol recently launched to the International Space Station (ISS).

Reducing the carbon footprint in the construction industry poses a significant challenge. Developing and using removable adhesives can play an important role in addressing it.

Foaming biodegradable bioplastics offers a revolutionary approach to improving both material efficiency and environmental impact.

As sustainability becomes a global priority, biopolymers derived from bacteria are emerging as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional oil-based plastics.

As the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) grows, efficient, safe, and long-lasting batteries become critical to meet energy and performance needs. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) power most EVs, but they face energy density, safety, and long-term reliability limitations.
