Abstract
Front Cover: The cover image of the special issue “Polymer Science in South Africa” guest-edited by Suprakas Sinha Ray and Rueben Pfukwa features the polymer industry as an essential cornerstone of South Africa's highly diverse and complex chemical industry, and it has reasonably comprehensive polymer science teaching and research programs. In this special issue, the research areas covered include polymer processing and engineering, polymer analysis, polymers for biomedical applications, biodegradable and bio-based polymer materials, recyclability and environmental impacts of polymers. In the editorial 2400240 you will get an overview of all the articles that contributed to this special issue. Cover design by Suprakas Sinha Ray.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Energy Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of materials, engineering, chemistry, physics and biology relevant to energy conversion and storage. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrate knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important energy applications.
