A polymer with a 2D molecular structure stacks into tightly packed layers — forming films of nanoscale thicknesses that are nearly impermeable to gases and moisture. Polymers are attractive barrier ...
MIT researchers have developed a lightweight polymer film that is nearly impenetrable to gas molecules, raising the possibility that it could be used as a protective coating to prevent solar cells and ...
Because it's nearly impermeable to gases, the polymer coating could be used to protect solar panels, machinery, infrastructure, and more. (Nanowerk News) MIT researchers have developed a lightweight ...
