Direct observation of desorption of a melt of long polymer chains – Phys.org
In our everyday life it’s not uncommon to see the same material in different states. Take for example water: it’s a liquid at ambient temperature, we can convert into ice when cooled below 0°C and it becomes a gas when heated above 100°C. The passages between…
In our everyday life it’s not uncommon to see the same material in different states. Take for example water: it’s a liquid at ambient temperature, we can convert into ice when cooled below 0°C and it becomes a gas when heated above 100°C. The passages between these different states of matter are called phase transitions.
Phase transitions are the expression of the organization and interactions of molecules and atoms inside materials, and because of this they have been largely studied by physici…
