A method based on thermodynamic analysis of material properties is able to predict slow Arrhenius process (SAP) relaxation rates and SAP-driven equilibration rates in glassy systems without inputing any prior data on the SAP https://t.co/3rapssis4k
By investigating the impact of processing on polymers, Thoms and coworkers show that the slow Arrhenius process (SAP), a recently discovered relaxation mechanism, is a probe of the degree of the mechanical stress experienced by materials. @polymerBXL

In a recent paper on @PCCP, Federico Caporaletti, a postdoctoral researcher @frsFNRS working at EST @ULBSciences, shows that also small molecules can relax via the slow Arrhenius process (SAP). Read more about his work on @ChemistryWorld
A relaxation mechanism first observed in liquid polymers is a universal feature of liquid and glassy materials, according to new evidence from researchers in Belgium.

Simone Napolitano @PolymerBXL est parvenu à accéder à la transition de phase adsorption-désorption de longues chaînes polymères. « Une avancée incroyable », selon un expert en physique des polymères. Une publication @NatureComms https://t.co/svi6G8OnnH
Read our latest paper in collaboration with @DCangialosi on the experimental observation of desorption of a polymer melt. We are really excited by the first clear observation of this phase transition! @ULBSciences https://t.co/fgojoGSQYN
We are looking for one/two highly motivated Postdocs to join the lab ASAP.
If you have experience in #RNA biology and/or #bioinformatics please contact me in private. We offer a stimulating scientific environment and all you need to be successful, just add you enthusiasm.
A huge potential is waiting to be discovered in the processing-induced nonequilibrium behavior of polymers. Read about our work on nonequilibrium at @ULBruxelles and enjoy the cover of the current isssue of @Macro_ACS https://t.co/pdilNu4lzH
