Materials Sciences

Materials management deals with the research, development, manufacturing and processing of raw and industrial materials. Key aspects here are biological and medical issues, which play an increasingly important role in this field.

innovations-report offers in-depth articles related to the development and application of materials and the structure and properties of new materials.

Rice breakthrough could make automated dosing systems universal

Synthetic biologists’ hack blood-glucose reaction to create chemotherapy detector. Rice University synthetic biologists have found a way to piggyback on the glucose monitoring technology used in automated insulin dosing systems…

Sustainable plastics from agricultural waste

In our rapidly industrialized world, the quest for sustainable materials has never been more urgent. Plastics, ubiquitous in daily life, pose significant environmental challenges, primarily due to their fossil fuel…

A new world of 2D material is opening up

Materials that are incredibly thin, only a few atoms thick, exhibit unique properties that make them appealing for energy storage, catalysis and water purification. Researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, have…

New high-speed microscale 3D printing technique

3D-printed microscopic particles, so small that to the naked eye they look like dust, have applications in drug and vaccine delivery, microelectronics, microfluidics, and abrasives for intricate manufacturing. However, the…

Novel technique to create new energy-efficient microelectronic device

Argonne researchers pioneer ​“redox gating” — a new way to precisely modulate electron flow. Breakthrough could help lead to the development of new low-power semiconductors or quantum devices. As the…

Combined microscopy technique catches light-driven polymers in the act

Researchers from Osaka University combine high-speed atomic force microscopy with a laser light source for real-time observation of azo-polymer films. Expanding our scientific understanding often comes down to getting as…
