Polymer industries depend on the spontaneous polymerization of molecules into chains in response to an appropriate trigger. We have succeeded in inducing and guiding chain polymerization over tiny ...
Poly(EG) (PEG) is one of the most commonly used biomedical polymers due to its specific properties. Oligo(EG) (OEG), which has a shorter polymer main chain, is used for the same reason.
It understands the processes which occur at the small scale and relates these to the larger scale production of, for example: pharmaceuticals, food stuffs, energy, polymers, lubricants, fuels, ...
