Tomorrow's speciality plastics may be produced more precisely and cheaply thanks to the apparently tight merger of a theory by a University of Oregon chemist and years of unexplained data from real world experiments involving polymers in Europe. The work, which researchers believe may lead to a new class of materials, is described in a paper appearing in the 18 December issue of the Journal of Physical Chemistry B (online 11 December)...
