Mechanically interlocked 2D chainmail unlocks smart polymers with shape-shifting capabilities
Researchers at Westlake University have disclosed a two-dimensional (2D) mechanically interlocked polymer (MIP) that mimics medieval chainmail at the molecular scale. This micrometer-scale 2D material ...
NASA is usually associated with forward thinking ideas. Sometimes however, the best ideas come from looking into the past. For example their latest idea for a rover tire design took inspiration from a ...
