Polymer-based membranes developed at KAUST could enable greener and cheaper industrial separation approaches. Their stability and selectivity can be tuned by thermal crosslinking to separate simple hydrocarbon mixtures and complex crude oil fractions. A paper on the work is published in Science. —Chisca et al. Vasylevskyi, S.,

Targeting the plastic industry first, and leveraging the material’s thermoplastic affinity to polymers, they company developed several commercial grades of UBQ material. UBQ GHG Neutralizer additives enable processors to directly compensate cO 2 -equivalent emissions (GHG) generated by plastic polymers. Polymers typically emit 1.9

Currently, two main classes of polymer-based fuel cells exist. The Los Alamos team collaborated with Fujimoto at Sandia to prepare quaternary ammonium functionalized polymers. These PEMs can conduct protons through stable ionic pair complexes and enable fuel cell operation at temperatures from 80 to 180 ËšC. —Lee et al.
