A research team led by Professor Dr. Eva Blasco, a researcher at the Institute for Molecular Systems Engineering and Advanced Materials (IMSEAM) at Heidelberg University, has designed a polymer material that can be disassembled into its individual components when needed.","category":"Science","image":null,"lang":"en","publishedAt":"2026-08-19T17:00:08+00:00","createdAt":"2026-08-19T17:30:12.64367+00:00"}}
