COVER STORY
Curing and Molding of Polymers

The process of directed polymer hardening is the most basic property that has long been used in various applications. Various materials are applied to achieve both weights saving and toughening. Polymer materials are attracting attention as structural materials and in bonding technology. Therefore, we once again focus in this issue on the topic of polymer hardening. Centering on the molding technology of thermoplastic polymers from the view of the crosslinking reaction, we will introduce cutting-edge technologies such as curing catalysts, crosslinking reactions and molding technology of composite materials presented by a broad range of renowned polymer scientists.
