Title: Nematic Alignment of Chains by Shear Flow and its Role in Accelerating Nucleation and Stabilizing Against Edge Fracture Abstract: Applying shear flow to some molten polymer liquids imparts a nematic chain alignment that creates form birefringence. Rheo-optical methods are used to quantify this alignment for high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK). With […]

Mikhail Shapiro is the Max Delbrück Professor of Chemical Engineering and Medical Engineering, an HHMI Investigator, and Director of the Center for Molecular and Cellular Medicine at Caltech. The Shapiro laboratory develops biomolecular technologies allowing cells to be imaged and controlled inside the body using noninvasive methods such as ultrasound. These technologies enable the study […]
