HKUST Uncovers Mechanism behind Accelerated Interfacial Polymerization
Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have achieved two major breakthroughs in interfacial polymerization, a key technique for preparing advanced functional materials. By integrating quantum mechanics with machine learning, the team has elucidated the mechanism by which water molecules facilitate reactions at the molecular level. At the same time, they have transformed microcapsule design from a traditional trial-and-error approach into a predictive science.
