ACS, the world's largest scientific society, is holding the meeting here through Thursday. It features nearly 11,000 presentations on a wide range of science…
A new theory, which gives new insights into the transport of liquid flowing along the surface under applied electric field, was developed by the group of…
The process uses a cerium-based material made into nanometer-sized particles with a palladium catalyst to produce cyclohexanone, a key ingredient in the…
The molecules used to make optoelectronic devices can be engineered to balance the chemical interactions within them and optimise their properties for specific…
Silicon dioxide, commonly called silica, is one of the most-abundant natural compounds and a major component of the Earth's crust and mantle. It is well-known…
The team, led by Franz Geiger of Northwestern University, tested the possibility of using graphene, the robust single atomic layer of carbon, as a separation…
Creating large amounts of polymer nanofibers dispersed in liquid is a challenge that has vexed researchers for years. But engineers and researchers at North…
A small movement of the hand, the characteristic 'click!' – and the snap fastener quickly and securely fastens our clothes. One of the newest methods of…
Lithium-sulfur batteries have recently become one of the hottest topics in the field of energy storage devices due to their high energy density—which is about…
The work, published in the March 17 issue of Nature Communications, pinpoints unprecedented proton movement through inherent atomic-scale defects, or gaps, in…
A means by which the removal of carbon dioxide (CO2) from coal-fired power plants might one day be done far more efficiently and at far lower costs than today…
“Our electrode is the most efficient oxygen-producing electrode in alkaline electrolytes reported to date, to the best of our knowledge,” says Associate…
Anaerobic biological processes like biogas production are limited in their performance and usability due to slow microbial growth and inhibition effects by…
Many ceramic-based electronics, such as spark plugs and multilayer ceramic capacitors (found in consumer electronics, mobile phones, DVDs and video cameras,…
UC Berkeley chemists have made a major leap forward in carbon-capture technology with a material that can efficiently remove carbon from the ambient air of a…
The majority of all polymers are insulators which do not show any remarkable electro activity. In the past, researchers have found out how to obtain a…
