New airborne measurements downwind from an ethanol fuel refinery in Decatur, Illinois, show that ethanol emissions are 30 times higher than government…
A group of scientists led by Assistant Professor Dr. Martin van der Laan has decoded the molecular basis for the characteristic structures inside of…
But also mammals do have a magnetic sense. The most famous representative is the subterraneous mole-rat which probably employs the magnetic sense to navigate…
Whether it’s water treatment or virus and protein separation, porous membranes are utilised in many different separation functions. What is particularly…
“Sugar itself isn't toxic, so it's been a mystery why high blood sugar can have such a profound effect on the body,” says Gerald Hart, Ph.D. , director of the…
A key challenge in neuroscience research is identifying organizational principles of how the brain integrates sensory information from its environment to…
How can smart services help to create connected city systems for the city of the future? The Smart Urban Services pilot project “Data-based service platform…
The invention consists of a cooled cylinder unit for a rheometer
and a method to identify rheological properties. By use of the
invention the cooling time in convective cooled rheometers can be
reduced. This can be necessary to reduce or prevent thermal
degradation of thermal sensitive polymers (i.e. biobased or bio-
degradable polymers).
Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung handelt es sich um ein Verfahren zur Herstellung dünner Polymer-Elektrolyte, die zudem mechanisch stabil und gleichzeitig auch flexibel sind. Diese zeichnen sich durch gute ionische Transporteigenschaften aus, d.h. die Leitfähigkeit bei Raumtemperatur beträgt 1 mS/cm. Die Membranen können aufgrund ihrer mechanischen Eigenschaften in Lithium-basierten Energiespeichen gleichzeitig als Elektrolyt und Separator eingesetzt werden. Das Verfahren ermöglicht die Verarbeitung von Polyacrylnitril basierten Membranen zusammen mit dem Lithiumleitsalz und ermöglicht eine gleichmäßige Materialstärke.
What if peanut brittle, under certain conditions, behaved like taffy? Something like that happens to a two-dimensional dichalcogenide analyzed by scientists at…
After studying sediment data from worldwide fjord systems, the researchers, who include Dr Candida Savage of New Zealand's University of Otago, estimate that…
There is a large, and relatively poorly understood, community of methane-consuming bacteria in this environment. They gorge on the gas, control its…
In modern microscope imaging techniques, lasers are used as light sources because they can deliver fast pulsed and extremely high-intensity radiation to a…
“Poor water quality, increased sediments and nutrients – conditions increasingly being faced by the modern day reef – caused a delay in the Reef's growth of…
Mitochondria are cell organelles that are involved in many functions. They are considered to be the ‘powerhouses of the cells’ because they convert nutrients…
