Stimuli-responsive fluids and gels are typically capable of changing their properties—primarily viscoelasticity—with field effects from light, temperature, magnetic behavior, and biological respon...

Theranostics is a word that combines therapy and diagnostics. More popularly, it defines a class of agents that are able to diagnose a particular disease or disease marker and deliver its payload or b...

Nanomaterials Webinar - November 5, 2015 Corrosion is a perennial problem that is present everywhere where the thermodynamically favorable process is the creation of rust. Although the mechanism of m...

Smart coatings are deemed to be stimuli-responsive, high performance, and cost effective. Is it possible to have these smart properties beyond what is currently scalable in manufacturing and formulati...

While 3D printing is well known for rapid prototyping, there is a high interest in advancing the method for lightweighting and reduction of complexity in assembly. This webinar will focus on the metho...

In this presentation, Prof. Advincula introduces us to new classes of additives and filler materials that have applications similar to those observed with carbon nanotubes and clays. One of the most v...

In this presentation, Prof. Advincula focuses on the enzyme and receptor-inspired chemistry of polymerization around a molecular template in a lock-key mechanism of producing sensors. These methods ha...

In this presentation, Prof. Advincula introduces us to the challenges of the oil and gas industry in terms of unconventionally gathered resources and the extreme conditions associated with them: shale...
