A research team led by the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) has discovered "berkelocene," the first organometallic molecule to be characterized containing the heavy element berkelium.
Researchers have developed metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that efficiently produce hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) using small temperature differences, offering a sustainable approach to chemical production.
A small team of materials scientists and chemical engineers at Qingdao University, in China, has developed a self-powered, three-component biosensor that can kill bacteria in water samples. The study is published in the journal ...
Finding the right lubricant for the right purpose is a task that is often extremely important in industry. Not only to reduce friction, overheating and wear, but also to save energy. At TU Wien, the research groups of Prof ...
A research team affiliated with UNIST has successfully developed a new porous material for the efficient separation of deuterium, a primary fuel for nuclear fusion. The team, jointly led by Professors Wonyoung Cho and Hyunchul ...
The vast majority of earthquakes strike inside the Ring of Fire, a string of volcanoes and tectonic activity that wraps around the coastlines of the Pacific Ocean. But when an earthquake hits, the areas that experience the ...
Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have developed a new material that harnesses the power of enzymes more effectively. These materials have improved the reaction efficiency and long-term stability of enzymes in electrochemical ...
Polymer-grade propylene (>99.5%) is an important raw material in the chemical industry. Producing propylene inevitably generates propane as a byproduct in the product steam. And producing polymer-grade propylene requires ...
Chinese scientists proposed a novel imine-to-olefin transformation strategy to synthesize single-crystal sp² carbon-linked covalent organic frameworks (sp²c-COFs).
A Cornell-led research team has developed a method for extracting gold from electronics waste, then using the recovered precious metal as a catalyst for converting carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas, to organic materials.
