Even now I can refer only to the German version of Van der Waals's pamphlet.

Van der Waals forces, once deemed too weak for structural integrity, have been shown to create stable, highly porous frameworks with exceptional thermal resilience and reversible assembly, paving the ...

The scientists developed a de-adhesion test to understand the area ... they noted increased cell adhesion as a consequence of increased VDW (van der Waals) forces between the cells.

A UNSW paper published recently in Nature Reviews Materials presents an exciting overview of the emerging field of 2D ferroelectric materials with layered van der Waals crystal structures ...
