Polyethyleneimine: An Important Building Block in Various Applications In Industry
What is Polyethyleneimine?
Polyethyleneimine (PEI) is a polymeric compound composed of repeating units of ethyleneimine monomers. It is a white solid polymer that is soluble in water. PEI is classified as a branched or linear cationic polymer that is formulated through the polymerization of aziridine. The polymer's molecular weight can range from 300 to over 10,000 Daltons depending on its intended use. Properties and Structure of PEI
PEI is a polymer that contains secondary nitrogen atoms along its backbone that provide cationic charge centers. These nitrogen atoms can interact and form electrostatic bonds with negatively charged macromolecules or surfaces. The cationic nature of PEI allows it to act as a polycation and complex or condense with negatively charged substances like DNA or RNA. PEI is also very hygroscopic due to its numerous amine groups that attract water molecules. Its branched structure provides greater buffering capacity and DNA condensation ability compared to the linear form of PEI. Uses in Gene Delivery
One of the most important uses of Polyethyleneimine is in non-viral gene delivery applications. Its cationic charge allows it to efficiently bind and compact negatively charged nucleic acids like plasmids, forming nano-sized polyplexes that can transfect cells. The polyplexes are effectively endocytosed by cells and the low pH of endosomes triggers PEI to buffer the compartment, releasing the DNA from the complex. This "proton sponge" mechanism of PEI facilitates effective intracellular delivery and expression of the gene of interest. It is commonly used as a transfection agent for in vitro studies as well as in vivo gene therapies and vaccines. Role in Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering
Given its favorable properties, PEI also finds extensive use as biomaterials for tissue engineering applications. Its cationic nature permits binding of PEI to negatively charged components of the extracellular matrix like glycosaminoglycans. This helps direct cell adhesion, growth, and function. PEI can act as a coating onto implants and scaffolds, promoting their integration with surrounding tissues. It allows bioconjugation of signaling cues to influence cell behavior in regenerative therapies as well. The tunable properties of PEI through controlling its molecular weight or branching also expand its utility in the design of biomaterials.
In addition to the major uses mentioned above, PEI has applications in many other fields due to its versatile characteristics. It acts as a flocculating agent in wastewater treatment processes to remove pollutants and purify water. PEI finds increasing importance as a hardener in epoxy resins used in manufacturing infrastructure and electronics. Its buffering ability makes it valuable as a non-corrosive alternative to replace hazardous chemicals in industrial cleaning agents as well. Overall, the unique polymeric structure and properties of PEI designate it as an essential building block material with myriad applications.

-> CH. 1: A SILENT DOG & STILL WATERS
synopsis: the soviet union has been producing robots for a long time based on a miracle compound: polymer. but that was invented in 1941. the current year is 2038, and, due to rising tensions in the arctic, americans aren't as kind to soviets as they once were. it's too bad you're a russki, and it's really too bad that you work in cybersecurity. and honestly, with the case fowler has put you on, you're at risk of losing your job. it doesn't help that you're stuck with lieutenant hank anderson and some new android apparently called connor.
word count: 2.6k
ships: Connor/Reader, Hank Anderson & Reader
notes: based on an au i literally had a dream about. it's basically d:bh with elements of atomic heart :P this ch. is half exposition and half hank being an alcoholic lolololol
HEAD OF FALSE SECURITY MASTERLIST
The Soviet Union had always been very good at spying on and stealing American technology. They did so with the atomic bomb, the B-29 superfortress, and the space shuttle – with no lack of effort on America’s side of trying to keep them secret.
But one thing set the USSR above the rest: polymer. A miracle compound that formed the backbone for every technological evolution that came after. It mimics a human neuron, including its ability to interpret input signals. With tinkering from top Soviet scientists (and a whole lot of luck), a gigantic neural network was established, the maximum computing power of which was orders of magnitude higher than the power of a conventional network.
With polymer, the Soviets reigned supreme as the only real international superpower. The other countries could play at being powerful, but the USSR was top dog – and she wasn’t keen on letting the others forget.
But that was in the past. And the past is boring. That was in 1941, and something you learn about in history class. Polymer is now regularly sold and traded and built upon and shared. After the Cold War ended, it was expanded outwards and is no longer a precious commodity. It was even needed to build a modern technology – androids. Ones that could pass the Turing test, unlike the TER-A1 Tereshkova (which was a human-looking robot, sure, but one that had an unsettling, unmoving mask for a face).
And androids are simply better than Soviet bots. They’re versatile and able to be mass-produced without specialization development. They’re not big and clunky like the chimpanzee-esque MA-9 Belyash and can still accomplish the same installation, plumbing, and welding work. They can do the same agricultural work an ARU-31/6 Rotorobot can do without the risk of accidentally endangering humans while in use.
Again, they’re simply better. In the current year of 2038, American androids just trump similar Soviet tech in every way.
But that doesn’t mean that the Soviets aren’t still trying. They’ve invaded the Arctic with intent to claim the land, heavy with NA-T256 Natasha bots and the claim that the “heavy-duty ground-based loader bots can squeeze up to five liters of blood from a human body in under twenty seconds,” as a deterrent to American forces.
And this action has made your workplace a hell away from home.
Even though you immigrated from Chelomey, Russia to Detroit, Michigan in 2027, before all this business went down, people still eyed you warily – like you secretly enjoyed living under communism and the ever-watching eye of the Kremlin. Like you were just itching to get your grubby little paws on American secrets so you could report them to Comrade Molotov and a beautiful girl back home called Katya. Yeah, right.
These small, under-the-breath and glance-of-the-eye accusations weren’t helped by your current occupation: as a screen jockey for the Head of Cybersecurity of the Detroit Police. They acted like you hadn’t worked just as hard as everyone else for your position – for your polymer glove and the privileges that came with it.
Polymer gloves have come a long way from their prototype in 1955. They’re a single fingerless glove – one glove, as a person doesn’t need two – with an adjustable wrist strap. In the middle of the palm is a small silver star that can retract to expose prehensile, tentacle-like wires that can interface with terminals and other technology.
But it doesn’t stop there – with a single gesture (holding your hand out and making an “L” shape) the glove can scan the surroundings of the user. Paired with an artificial polymer retina, the user can have information about the environment that they otherwise wouldn’t have.
And, of course, you’re outfitted with the top versions of both – on the precinct’s credit card, obviously.
But, again, you’re just a screen jockey. One of the best, but still just a worker bee that reports to a higher-up. There’s little to no interaction with the other departments, as cybersecurity is mostly isolated without any related crimes. Maybe cyberterrorism, but cases of that are few and far between.
And you thought that’s all you’d ever be until you heard Fowler’s bellowing voice call your last name.
When you pop your head up from behind your terminal, you see him standing halfway through the glass door to his office. You swallow and trot over, a nervous idea tickling the back of your mind. Is he mad? Did you do something wrong? Shit… did you accidentally leak something?
You push open Fowler’s door and slowly shut it behind you. He’s sitting behind his desk, stark against the blue-grey backdrop of the wall behind him. His constantly furrowed brow and permanent frown lighten a little when he sees you.
You fold your hands behind your back politely. “Yes, sir?”
Fowler gestures to the seat in front of his desk. “Go ahead and take a seat.”
Oh, fuck. Oh, shit. You definitely did something wrong.
You walk over and sit in the chair. It screeches with a horrible sound.
You lean back in the chair and cross your arms. “What is this about, sir?”
Fowler leans back in his chair and drags a hand down his face. Immediately, the worst things pop into your head. You fight the urge to worry your bottom lip.
“You have experience with androids, yes?” Fowler asks, but it doesn’t sound like a question – rather, a statement.
“Yes, sir.” You nod.
“And you have experience with Lieutenant Hank Anderson?”
Your eyebrows furrow a little, but you still nod. “Yes, sir.”
Fowler turns to his terminal. “How do you feel about him?”
You bite your bottom lip as you think, then let it slip from your teeth. “I don’t know what you want me to say. He’s my friend. He is still a valuable member of the force, even if he has presented a few problems in the past couple of years.”
Fowler laughs. “A few?”
“Ah…” You smile, but it’s a bit forced. “More than a few. A lot. More problems than solutions, if I’m being honest.”
“That’s just how it goes sometimes.” He shrugs and sighs. “Do you know about the new case he’s been assigned?”
“Yes, sir,” you say. “He won’t shut up about it.”
He hums and leans forward, resting his chin on folded hands. “Always one for discretion, that one.”
You duck your head, instead looking down at your lap. “Yeah. But I think he can do better – be the cop he was before.”
“An optimistic Soviet.” Fowler laughs lowly. “That’s a new one.”
You just clench your jaw and meet his eyes. “What is this about? If you’ve called me in just to poke fun at me and gossip about Hank, I’d like to go back to my desk. Uh, sir.”
“No, no.” He holds a hand up. “Tell me what you’ve heard about Hank’s case.”
You think for a second. “Deviant androids murdering their owners. It sounds like it would’ve been labeled self-defense if it was a human-on-human crime, but…” you shrug. “I’m not in Homicide. I’m in Cybersecurity.”
“Well, you’re getting some experience.” Fowler pulls a cord from his terminal, one you recognize as a port compatible with a polymer glove. “You’re on the case.”
“I’m on the case?!” You repeat in disbelief. “Sir, I – I don’t –”
He holds up a hand for the second time. “I don’t want to hear it. You’re the best screen jockey with the most field experience I can spare.”
He gestures with the cord still in his hand. “Now, c’mon. Jack in and download the files.”
You swallow your objections and outstretch your gloved left hand. The thin metal of the star retracts, and the prehensile wires extend towards the port, waving like blades of grass. The ends of all six find their homes in the port, still wiggling like black tapeworms.
Documents appear in the corner of your eye, one after another, like pop-up ads. You blink hard to dismiss them, then disconnect.
Fowler feeds the cord back into his terminal, then leans back in his chair.
He looks over at you. “What’s that one saying you Soviets say? Something about champagne.”
You look up at him, then down to your glove. The star retracts, then goes back to its original position, like it was winking at you. “He who doesn’t take risks won’t drink champagne.”
“Well, I hope you have a taste for harder liquor,” Fowler says. “Hank’s at having a drink somewhere nearby. Go find him.”
And Lord, did you know right where to find Hank.
On the door to Jimmy’s Bar is a firm warning, reading: NO ANDROIDS ALLOWED – OWNERS WILL BE PROSECUTED. You just hope that they don’t extend the same kindness to russkis.
When you open the door, everyone in the bar turns to look at you. You nod and, once they see who you are, turn back to their conversations or nursing their drinks.
You spot Hank at the bar with what looks like a Tennessee whiskey. You sidle up onto the barstool next to him, easing into the creaky seat. As you drape your rain-speckled coat on the back of the chair, you glance at the clock on the wall. It reads just before twenty past eleven.
“Bartender?” You call. Your thick accent immediately catches his attention, and so does the money you slide onto the bartop. “Vodka, please.”
The bartender, presumably Jimmy, picks up a bottle of Stolichnaya from the shelving behind him. “This good?”
You nod. “More than good.”
He pours vodka into a tumbler glass, then pushes it across the bar. You accept it readily, and the tiny sip you take gives your throat a nice burn on the way down.
“A Soviet and vodka,” Hank mumbles against the lip of his glass. “Like a moth to a flame.”
“It’s what my mother served with dinner,” you say. “I’m just glad Jimmy’s got enough sense not to keep us from his bar.”
Hank chuckles and raises his glass to that.
“Fowler’s gone beyond the pale.” You sip at your drink. “Have you heard?”
“Yup.” He sighs, setting his drink on the bartop harder than necessary. “Don’t know why a kid like you has business with an old timer like me.”
“Oh, believe me,” you say, your voice heavy with sarcasm. “It’s nice to visit, but it’s better to be home. I don’t know what he’s thinking. A Cybersecurity worker partnering up with someone in Homicide? Next, we’ll have androids doing our thinking and philosophy instead of our laundry and dishes.”
Hank snorts into his drink. “Hell, with all these runaways? They might as well be.”
“I mean, I can see his line of thinking.” You swirl the vodka in your glass, watching the way it catches and reflects the low light of the bar. “Cybersecurity, androids… makes sense, but me? A russki? With all that’s happening in the Arctic? If we don’t do well, my job is on the line.”
Hank sips his whiskey. “It really sounds like Fowler’s settin’ you up to fail.”
“Setting us both up to fail.” You correct and mirror him, sipping at your vodka.
The sound of the door opening and the rain outside cuts into your conversation. Nothing you’d usually take a glance at, but what puts you off is the sudden silence of the bar. Bars shouldn’t be silent – especially not Jimmy’s.
You look over your left shoulder and see a nice looking man that’s just walked through the door. He looks a bit dorky, sure, and a bit like a lost puppy dog, but that could look nice on certain guys. And the asymmetrical tuft of loose hair that’s escaped his hair gel looks –
There’s a blue triangle just above where his left breast pocket would be. On the other side of his blazer reads RK800 in even, white text. He’s an android, not a man. He meets your gaze and you inhale sharply.
Your eyes return to your drink, and so does Hank’s. This isn’t what you want to deal with right now – or ever, actually. It’s Jimmy’s establishment, so it’s Jimmy’s problem.
But still, as soon as the android saw you, he started making a beeline for you. His footsteps are quick, measured, and even.
“Excuse me,” he says, putting a hand on your shoulder. He addresses you by your title, and your gut clenches.
“No.” You try to wave him off. “No English. Sorry.”
“Officer, you passed each of your TestEaFL’s with flying colors,” he says, narrowing his eyes a little. “You can speak English perfectly fine.”
You cringe a little, but then a thought strikes you – how would this android have access to the scores of your Test of English as a Foreign Language? But before you can ask, he’s turned to Hank and started speaking.
“Oh, Lieutenant Anderson.” He moves so that he’s standing beside Hank. “Just the other person I was looking for.”
He glances between the two of you. “My name is Connor. I’m the android sent by CyberLife. Captain Fowler said that you were both having a drink nearby. I was lucky to find you at the fifth bar.”
You snort and your eyebrows shoot up. If you didn’t know better, you’d say that there was a hint of… something other than monotone indifference in his voice.
“What do you want?” Hank grinds out.
“You were assigned a case early this evening. A homicide, involving a CyberLife android.” Connor glances at you, like he’s reminding you that you were also assigned this case. “In accordance with procedure, the company has allocated a specialized model to assist investigators.”
“Well, I don’t need any assistance.” Hank jabs a thumb at you. “I’ve got all the unwanted assistance I need right here, and I don’t need any more. ‘Specially not from a plastic asshole like you. So just be a good lil’ robot and get the fuck outta here.”
“He’s right,” you chime. “And it doesn’t really look good to have androids investigating androids. What if you snap, too?”
“I will not.” Connor meets your eyes, and you can almost see the switch flick in that little android brain. Great, now it’s your turn to be grilled.
He circles so that he’s standing beside you and leans down a little, putting his hand on the bartop. You keep your eyes down, firmly on your drink.
“I’m sorry, Officer, Lieutenant, but I must insist,” he says. “My instructions stipulate that I have to accompany both of you.”
“You know where you can stick your instructions?” Hank chimes in with a throaty laugh.
You glance over at Connor, who looks thoroughly confused. You smile and bring the glass to your lips.
“No,” Connor says. “Where?”
Your throat seizes around the sip of vodka you were trying to take, causing you to cough it out as you try to suppress your laughter. You slam down the glass (effectively spilling most of it) and bring a hand to your chest, trying to ride it out as Hank pats your back.
“чёрт возьми!” You wheeze, your voice hoarse. Your chest burns. “Oh, fuck.”
You wipe your eyes as the burn dulls, still coughing slightly. Connor purses his lips before coming to a conclusion.
“You know what?” He offers. “I’ll buy you both one for the road.”
“You better,” you say. “You made me spill mine.”
“Bartender!” Connor calls, and slips money onto the bartop. “The same again, please.”
“See that, Jim?” Hank says. “Wonders of technology. Make it a double.”
Jimmy pours a healthy amount of Jack Daniels into Hank’s glass, and starts to pour Stolichnaya into yours. You cut him halfway with a raised hand and a “Someone’s gotta drive us home safe.”
You knock back your drink, then let out a low whistle at the nice burn. Hank follows soon after and sighs heavily.
He leans back and looks over at Connor. “Did you say homicide?”

Researchers at Hokkaido University have taken a significant step forward in the drive to make recyclable yet stable plastics from plant materials. This is a key requirement to reduce the burden of plastic pollution in the environment. They developed a convenient and versatile method to make a variety of polymers from chemicals derived from plant cellulose; crucially, these polymers can be fully recycled. The method was published in the journal ACS Macro Letters. Cellulose is one of the most abundant components of biomass derived from plants, being a key part of the tough cell walls surrounding all plant cells. It can be readily obtained from plant wastes, such as straw and sawdust, therefore, using it as a feedstock for polymer manufacture should not reduce the availability of agricultural land for food production.

Self-sensing cantilever design enhances microelectromechanical system performance in challenging environments
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are tiny devices that integrate various components, such as miniature sensors, electronics and actuators, onto a single chip. These small devices have proved highly promising for precisely detecting biological signals, acceleration, force and other measurements. Most of the MEMS developed to date are made of silicon and silicon nitride. While some of these devices have achieved promising results, their material composition and design limit their sensitivity and versatility, for instance limiting their use in wet environments. In a recent Nature Electronics paper, researchers at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) introduced an innovative cantilever design for MEMS based on a polymer, a semiconductor and ceramic. Cantilevers are tiny flexible beams that can adapt their shape in response to external forces or molecular interactions, thus potentially serving as sensors or actuators.

Hey there! I normally paint with acrylics and was wanting to seal my finished pieces but.....am not sure what to do that with! I'm worried about my finished paintings being too glossy but also want to protect them. Do you have any products you would recommend? Thank you for your time.
Hi! Yeah, there's a couple options for sealing acrylic works that I use. I'm sure there are more out there but these are my favorites from what I have personally tried.
I use Liquitex gloss varnish for most of my pieces. It brushes on and does a good job at protecting pieces from damage, moisture, and UVs. The glossiness ensures your darks remain dark, too, it tends to deepen the colors in a nice way, but the tradeoff is that it's very shiny. (Always apply this in multiple thin layers--applied too thick, it makes a strange surface effect that is undesirable.)
Since I do mixed media a lot, some of my materials will re-activate if I brushed an acrylic varnish over them, such as pastels. For this, I use Minwax Polycrylic spray protective finish, since it will seal even chunky stuff like oil pastels. The Polycrylic is pricy but comes in a matte spray which deepens the colors, protects the surface, AND isn't too shiny! I like the satin finish, too, and the gloss... it's a good, versatile spray varnish I use for lots of stuff. My partner uses the matte to seal his acrylic painted polymer clay sculptures.
They make matte varnishes that are brush-on, too, but I find the fogginess left by a matte finish doesn't flatter most paintings, so I opt for the shiny gloss instead. (Gloss also is easier to dust/clean.)
Hope this helps!

hello!! i am troxler (trox if you're nasty) and you might know me from my xwitter @ broadcastrelay or my old experimental art blog @hand-in-hand-again .
this blog is sfw. i have a more reblog-heavy nsfw sideblog, @heartshapedsignal , where i can place aesthetics, rb art that i like, Cronenbergpost & generally toss up more intense horror things & keep this one somewhat more tidy + personal-art-oriented. follow my alt if you please; although it's unlikely i'll ever post anything too explicit, there is nsfw/🔞 potential, so again, heartshapedsignal is 🔞 just to be safe!!
i have a throne account here if you'd like to support my work by helping with supplies & thereby earn my eternal gratitude:
commissions are currently closed & i will update here & on xwitter if that changes!!
i do have discord if you'd like to chat, you can DM me for my username. i'm vision impaired & it's a little easier for me than tumblr DMs (scalable font. properly mapped keyboard that allows me to hit the right keys occasionally. you know 👁️)
i am sometimes slow to respond to messages, but i don't expect you to be available all the time either--i answer things when i have a moment, & i assume others do too ✌️ i have the temperament of a displaced 11th century anchorite, am simply not adapted to the tone & pace of centralized social media.
i also unfortunately cannot voice call or stream/screen share because i am a millennial (just kidding, it's because my phone is almost 9 years old & it overheats when i check my e-mail)
learn a bit more about me under the cut ✂️
i was dropped into this simulation in the early 80s, i'm a disabled artist (vision impaired - [ask me about my atrophied optic nerves] - & have some other physical Issues so i use a cane) & my wife and i host two black cats, roughly 35% of a mannequin, and a whole lot of dolls.
all my art is trad/physical media (haven't figured out a way to make digital art accessible yet. maybe someday!!) i like to sculpt in epoxy, plastilene, polymer & stone clay, i like to mold & cast in resin, make & customize various types of dolls, & build puppets; i do custom framed work, mixed media & textile stuff like sewing & embroidery; i paint in oil, acrylic, watercolor, gouache & water soluble graphite & i love ink, markers, crayons & whatever cheap & weird stuff i can get my hands on.
i have a particular affection for props, prop replicas & hypothetical in-universe items, & i like things that are handsome, durable & believable. i'm versatile & innovative, & i'm at my happiest when i'm exploring technical processes. i have quite a bit of knowledge about techniques & materials. i love a challenge!! currently all my sewing is done by hand, i have trouble controlling pedal-operated machines.
my favorite thing is horror coated in a fine layer of nostalgia & sprinkled with history. that seems highly specific, but you'd be surprised how many things fit the criteria. i tend to fixate on characters & concepts & do a lot of art about it - a habit i developed while i was re-teaching myself to draw after the changes to my eyesight. my output is largely therapeutic. sometimes people like it. maybe you will too!!
a good amount of my work is fanart & will be tagged as such/otherwise linked to the appropriate project, original work will be specified & have its own tag.
at the moment i make a lot of work related to the independent psychological horror unfiction project Welcome Home, created by ' partycoffin ' here on tumblr.
that's all for now!! 👁️🗨️📺

Researchers harness liquid crystal structures to design simple, yet versatile bifocal lenses
Researchers have developed a new type of bifocal lens that offers a simple way to achieve two foci (or spots) with intensities that can be adjusted by applying external voltage. The lenses, which use two layers of liquid crystal structures, could be useful for various applications such as optical interconnections, biological imaging, augmented/virtual reality devices and optical computing. "Most liquid-crystal-based devices are made from single-layer structures, but this limits light field modulation to a confined area," said research team leader Fan Fan from Hunan University in China. "We used bilayer structures composed of a liquid crystal cell and a liquid crystal polymer to realize more complex and functional modulation of incident light." In the journal Optics Letters, the researchers show that the new bifocal lenses can be used for polarization imaging, which is often used to enhance image contrast, and for edge imaging, which highlights the outlines of objects, making it easier to see fine details or spot certain shapes. The paper is titled "Bifocal lenses with adjustable intensities enabled by bilayer liquid crystal structures."
