Fabrication of polythiophene patterns through blending of a thermally curable polythiophene with poly(methyl methacrylate) and selective thermal curation
In this study, we demonstrate a novel method for fabricating polythiophene patterns, i.e., cylindrical holes and cylinders, through blending of a thermally curable polythiophene carrying with tertiary ester group...

Morphologies and mechanical properties of cis-1,4-butadiene rubber/polyethylene blends
The mechanical properties and phase morphologies of cis-1,4-butadiene rubber (BR) blended with polyethylene (PE) at different blend ratios were studied. The tensile test results show that the PE exhibits excellen...
