Mass spectrometry of intact synthetic polymers has been limited to field desorption (FD) MS
for many years. More recently, soft ionization techniques such as electrospray (ESI) and …

Mass spectrometry of polymers and polymeric surfaces represents a very broad field of
active research. There are many different experimental techniques used to probe polymers …

Regioregular, head-to-tail coupled, poly (3-alkylthiophenes), synthesized by three different
methods, were subjected to MALDI-TOF MS analysis. Polymer samples of both high and low …

This review focuses on a new generation of polymers with intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) and
their hydrogen storage applications. PIMs are a novel microporous material attracting …

A novel nanostructured composite film (see figure) that takes advantage of two different
natural materials—layered nacre and the marine adhesive of mussels—is prepared. L‐3, 4 …

This review summarizes the use of metallocene complexes and related compounds as
catalysts in the dimerization or oligomerization of olefins (alkenes) or terminal acetylenes …

Amorphous and semi-crystalline polyester polyols based on a novel, low cost, bio-based 1,
5-pentanediol (Bio-PDO) were synthesized and formulated into solvent-borne coatings and …

Effects of chain flexibility and cationizing agent on the gas-phase conformations of a series
of polyethers were studied. Collision cross-sections of poly (propylene glycol)(PPG) and …

Polyamides are insoluble or poorly soluble in common organic solvents, which makes
normal sample preparation for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass …

Novel core− shell structured nanoassemblies are assembled by a β-cyclodextrin containing
a positively charged host polymer and a hydrophobic guest polymer. The hydrophobic core …
