Kimberly Jeskie and Michelle Kidder of the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have been named 2018 American Chemical Society (ACS) fellows.
An 91°µÍø–led team has developed super-stretchy polymers with amazing self-healing abilities that could lead to longer-lasting consumer products.
Polymer nanocomposites mix particles billionths of a meter (nanometers, nm) in diameter with polymers, which are long molecular chains.
