Direct linkRushton, Gregory T.; Furmanski, Brian; Shimizu, Ken D. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2005
Synthetic polymers are prepared and tested in a study for their molecular recognition properties of an adenine derivative, ethyl adenine-9-acetate (EA9A), within two laboratory periods. The procedure introduces undergraduate chemistry students to noncovalent molecular imprinting as well as the analytical techniques for assessing their recognition…

Peer reviewedRodriguez, F. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1990
Classroom demonstrations of selected mechanical properties of polymers are described that can be used to make quantitative measurements. Stiffness, strength, and extensibility are mechanical properties used to distinguish one polymer from another. (KR)
