Magnetic-field-induced alignment of syndiotactic polystyrene (sPS) is reported here. Isothermal crystallization of sPS samples from several annealing temperatures was conducted in a 2 or 10 T magnetic ...

In a recent article published in Advanced Functional Materials, researchers introduced a novel method for achieving long-range uniform alignment of nanostructures using magnetic fields, with a ...

This video explains what magnets are and how magnetic fields are generated through the alignment of atomic structures. Magnets influence electric currents, force interactions, and are used in many ...

The design of stimuli-responsive self-assembled molecular systems capable of undergoing mechanical work is one of the most important challenges in synthetic chemistry and materials science. Here we ...

Lithium ion batteries may be the most prolific form of rechargeable batteries for portable electronics, but they are not without fault: the slow transport of Lithium ions from the negative to the ...
