Predicting Faster Than We Can Make: Polymer-Specific Process Physics as a Frontier for Autonomous Soft-Matter Discovery.

Machine learning is now a productive tool in polymer research, predicting many properties and proposing new structures by generative design. For the materials whose behaviour is set by processing rather than chemistry alone, our capacity to propose polymers is beginning to outrun our capacity to make, process, and vali...
