Focus Review Collection 2013–2015 from Polymer Journal
Focus Reviews are shorter review articles focused on the topics of author's own research interest and activities. With this narrowed scope and mini-review style format, it is mainly aimed at younger researchers to introduce essence of their researches and outcomes alongside the development of relevant study field, and to give readers useful, concise summary of the topics.
In this collection we introduce 12 selected Focus Review articles on different research topics such as polymer/CaCO3 hybrid material, polymer-based gelators, recombinant elastomeric protein biopolymers, or Polyplex Micelles.
