Photopolymerization in 3D Printing

Ali Bagheri, Jianyong Jin · 20 Feb 2019

The field of 3D printing is continuing its rapid development in both academic and industrial research environments. The development of 3D printing technologies has opened new implementations in rapid prototyping, tooling, dentistry, microfluidics, biomedical devices, tissue engineering, drug delivery, etc. Among different 3D printing techniques, photopolymerization-based process (such as stereolithography and digital light processing) offers…

Polarons, Bipolarons, And Absorption Spectroscopy of PEDOT

Igor Zozoulenko, Amritpal Singh, Sandeep Kumar Singh et al. · 11 Dec 2018

Electronic structure and optical absorption spectra of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) for different oxidation levels were studied using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT. It is shown, that the DFT-based predictions for the polaronic and bipolaronic states and the nature of corresponding optical transitions are qualitatively different from the widely used traditional picture based on semi-empirical…

Why is Recycling of Postconsumer Plastics so Challenging?

Bryan D. Vogt, Kristoffer K. Stokes, Sanat K. Kumar · 23 Aug 2021

The ubiquitous use of plastics has been driven by their combination of low cost and properties, but these attributes directly challenge waste management schemes for plastic recycling. Some postconsumer recycling programs are now nearly 50 years old, but a significant fraction of plastics still finds landfills or other dumping strategies at their end of life.…

Temperature-Responsive Multilayer Films of Micelle-Based Composites for Controlled Release of a Third-Generation EGFR Inhibitor

Li Xu, Hailong Wang, Zihan Chu et al. · 17 Jan 2020

Lung cancer is a complicated long-term disease, which is extremely difficult to cure. A traditional single drug delivery system cannot achieve desired long-term controlled release of therapeutic compounds. Our previous studies have found that temperature-responsive micelles demonstrated high loading efficiency and a long-term controlled release rate, which allows them to be an efficient drug delivery…

Importance of Polymer Rheology on Material Extrusion Additive Manufacturing: Correlating Process Physics to Print Properties

Arit Das, Eric L. Gilmer, Saeid Biria et al. · 8 Feb 2021

Recent advances in the field of additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing, have garnered serious interest for its potential to substitute time-consuming and costly subtractive and formative manufacturing techniques. Material extrusion (MatEx), employing filament and pellet-based feedstocks, is an AM technique for fabricating three-dimensional objects dictated by a computer-aided design (CAD) file in a layer-by-layer…

ACS Applied Polymer Materials template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the ACS Applied Polymer Materials format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the ACS Applied Polymer Materials template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official American Chemical Society format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does ACS Applied Polymer Materials use?
ACS Applied Polymer Materials uses Superscript numbered (ACS) references, shown as superscript numerals in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: (1) Smith, A.; Jones, B.; Lee, C. A Representative Article Title. ACS Applied Polymer Materials 2023, 12, 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to ACS Applied Polymer Materials?
No. DocuGuru generates the achemso LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a American Chemical Society-ready ACS Applied Polymer Materials document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the ACS Applied Polymer Materials template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the ACS Applied Polymer Materials format with correct headings, figures, tables, and superscript citations.
What is ACS Applied Polymer Materials?
ACS journal (achemso). It is a chemistry journal, published by American Chemical Society.
Can I export a submission-ready ACS Applied Polymer Materials PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official ACS Applied Polymer Materials template (the achemso class) that is ready to submit to American Chemical Society, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
