Researchers at Kumamoto University and Nagoya University have developed a new class of two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) using triptycene-based molecules, marking a breakthrough in the quest to understand ...
Despite natural evidence indicating sulfur's importance and efficiency as a catalyst for critical redox reactions, including hydrogenation (addition of hydrogen to molecule) and dehydrogenation (its opposite), chemists have ...
Every year, thousands of new materials are created, yet many never reach their full potential because their applications aren't immediately obvious—a challenge University of Toronto researchers aim to address using artificial ...
University of Utah researchers have developed a material that addresses an urgent environmental challenge: the real-time detection and efficient removal of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), a toxic and persistent member of the ...
A research team led by Linda Zhang at Tohoku University has developed a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) that enables record-breaking separation of hydrogen isotopes, achieving a D2/H2 selectivity of 32.5 at 60 K.
A new study reveals an alarming number of mechanisms throughout the life-cycle of plastic that could enhance or spread antimicrobial resistance.
In a breakthrough for regenerative medicine, a new study from IMDEA Materials Institute researchers has demonstrated the potential of 3D-printed carbon microlattices as structurally tunable scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.
Rare earth elements sustain the Information Age, and securing a supply of these metals has become a matter of national and economic security. They're ubiquitous in our smart technologies, high-performance materials and industrial ...
After two weeks of negotiations, the International Seabed Authority (ISA) is still far from finalizing rules for extracting coveted metals on the high seas despite heightened pressure triggered by US efforts to fast-track ...
Researchers are creating new moiré materials at the nanometer scale using advanced DNA nanotechnology. DNA moiré superlattices form when two periodic DNA lattices are overlaid with a slight rotational twist or positional ...
