Efficient thermal management in polymers is essential for developing lightweight, high-strength materials with multifunctional capabilities.

This invention provides a platform that uses AI agents and biological networks to uncover and interpret disease-relevant biological mechanisms.

Dual-GP addresses limitations in traditional GPBO-driven autonomous experimentation by incorporating an additional surrogate observer and allowing human oversight, this technique improves optimization efficiency via data quality assessment and adaptability to unanticipated exp

This invention utilizes a custom-synthesized vinyl trifluoromethanesulfonimide (VTFSI) salt and an alcohol containing small molecule or polymer for the synthesis of novel single-ion conducting polymer electrolytes for the use in Li-ion and beyond Li-ion batteries, fuel cells,

The disclosure is directed to optimized fiber geometries for use in carbon fiber reinforced polymers with increased compressive strength per unit cost. The disclosed fiber geometries reduce the material processing costs as well as increase the compressive strength.

PET is used in many commercial products, but only a fraction is mechanically recycled, and even less is chemically recycled.

Developed a novel energy efficient, cost-effective, environmentally friendly process for separation of lithium from end-of-life lithium-ion batteries.

The technologies provides for regeneration of anion-exchange resin.
