The inorganic polymer (SN) x. In polymer chemistry, an inorganic polymer is a polymer with a skeletal structure that does not include carbon atoms in the backbone. [1] Polymers containing inorganic and organic components are sometimes called hybrid polymers, [2] and most so-called inorganic polymers are hybrid polymers. [3]
Inorganic polymers can also be named in accordance with inorganic nomenclature, but the seniority of the elements is different from that in organic nomenclature. However, certain inorganic and inorganic-organic polymers, for example those containing metallocene derivatives, are at present best named using organic nomenclature, e.g., the polymer ...
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that was established in 2009 by the American Chemical Society. Originally published monthly, the journal became biweekly in 2013 and weekly in 2015. The current editor-in-chief is Xing Yi Ling (Nanyang Technological University).
A generic polysiloxane. Polysiloxane, commonly known as silicone, is the most commonly commercially available inorganic polymer. [1] The large body of existing work on polysiloxane has made it a readily available platform for functionalization to create smart polymers, with a variety of approaches reported which generally center around the addition of metal oxides to a commercially available ...
In the 1970s and 1980s, the proportionately largest use of these polymers was in water treatment. [2] The next major application by weight is additives for pulp processing and papermaking. About 30% of polyacrylamide is used in the oil and mineral industries. [1]
The journal is abstracted and indexed in Scopus and the Science Citation Index Expanded.According to the Journal Citation Reports, its 2020 impact factor is 1.756, ranking it 141st out of 160 journals in the category "Biotechnology & Applied Microbiology", [1] 37th out of 41 journals in the category "Materials Science, Biomaterials", [2] and 69th out of 91 journals in the category "Polymer ...
The Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine is a monthly peer-reviewed medical journal that covers the field of biomedical engineering. It was established in 1971 as Engineering in Medicine , obtaining its current title in 1989.
Biocompatible and hence is suitable for medical applications. Melting point 175 °C., and glass transition temperature 2 °C. Tensile strength 40 MPa, close to that of polypropylene. Sinks in water (while polypropylene floats), facilitating its anaerobic biodegradation in sediments. Non-toxic. Less 'sticky' when melted.
