Researchers from Central South University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and Ben-Gurion University of the Negev are using laser treatments to transform ordinary cork into an effective and nontoxic tool for cleaning up marine Read More
A team of researchers from the University of Nottingham has developed a method to convert metal waste into a catalyst for producing hydrogen from water. In the future, this new technique could enhance the sustainability Read More
Researchers from Linköping University (LiU) are the first to create sheets of gold only a single atom layer thick. The new material – called goldene – has the potential for use in applications such as Read More
Carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) is an extremely strong, lightweight material made of carbon fibers and a plastic matrix that is used in manufacturing in many industries, including: aviation, aerospace, automotive, marine, and sports equipment. However, Read More
A team of physicists at the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing (PC2) are using complex computer simulations to create a novel solar cell design that demonstrates substantially higher efficiency than existing options. The enhancement in Read More
Researchers at Stanford University have developed a spring-assisted actuator that can augment electric motors to make them much more efficient at performing dynamic movements. The standard electric motor was designed for steady, ongoing activities, not Read More
Researchers at the Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a simple, groundbreaking method of rolling atomically thin sheets of atoms into nanoscrolls. Nanoscrolls have great possibilities for use in catalysis and photovoltaic devices. The team – Read More
Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a method that will efficiently and cleanly produce hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) using a photosynthetic process. This system could be further developed to construct self-cleaning surfaces Read More
A team at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has developed a water-based ‘wood ink’ to be used for 3D printing. Sustainable structural material is important for engineering applications, and the new Read More
One of the challenges facing the economically viable and carbon neutral production of advanced biofuels is the initial phase, where plant material is decomposed. Lignin, one of the main components of plant cell walls, provides Read More
