The focus in the field of biomedical engineering has shifted in recent years to biodegradable
polymers and, in particular, polyesters. Dozens of polyester-based medical devices are …

Polyoxometalates (POMs) are a subset of metal oxides with unique physical and chemical
properties, which can be reliably modified through various techniques and methods to …

This comprehensive tutorial review focuses on well-defined cobalt complexes that serve as
homogeneous catalysts for the production of polycarbonates and cyclic carbonates from the …

Most synthetic polymers are made from petroleum feedstocks. Given the non‐renewable
nature of these materials, there is increasing interest in develo** routes to polymeric …

Microfluidics is an emerging field that has given rise to a large number of scientific and
technological developments over the last few years. This review reports on the use of …

Polyoxometalates (POMs) are a class of versatile and discrete anionic metal oxides in
groups 5 and 6. POMs have unique physical and chemical properties, eg, strong Brønsted …

This manuscript describes the use of water‐soluble polymers for use as sacrificial layers in
surface micromachining. Water‐soluble polymers have two attractive characteristics for this …

Power dissipation in microprocessors is projected to reach a level that may necessitate chip-
level liquid cooling in the near future. An on-chip microchannel heat sink can reduce the …

Two routes to the thermal decomposition of poly (propylene carbonate)(PPC) have been
considered-polymer chain-end unzip** and random chain scission. The inhibition and …

The following paper describes a sacrificial layer method for the manufacturing of microfluidic
devices in polyimide and SU-8. The technique uses heat-depolymerizable polycarbonates …
