I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
“#Scientists develop ‘biorubber’ glue for faster surgical recovery and pain relief” Liquid CaproGlu applied to meat being cured by UV light, turning into biorubber. Credit: Nanyang Technological University Materials scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have invented a new type of surgical glue that can help join blood vessels and close wounds faster…
“#Challenges in the development of electrocatalysts” Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Regenerative energy harvesting often generates more electricity than is directly needed. Electrochemical processes could be used to store the excess energy or make it usable. Although intensive research on the catalysts required for this has been going on for 20 years, progress is only being…
“#3-D printing ‘greener’ buildings using local soil” Scientists have developed a method to 3D print structures using local soil. Credit: Aayushi Bajpayee The construction industry is currently facing two major challenges: the demand for sustainable infrastructure and the need to repair deteriorating buildings, bridges and roads. While concrete is the material of choice for many…
“#Ultrafast electrons in magnetic oxides: A new direction for spintronics?” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Special metal oxides could one day replace semiconductor materials that are commonly used today in processors. Now, for the first time, an international team of researchers from Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU), the University of Kaiserslautern and the University of Fribourg…
“#Liquid sulfur changes shape and goes critical under pressure” Mohamed Mezouar, corresponding author and ESRF scientist, during the experiment at the ESRF, the European synchrotron. Credit: ESRF/Stef Candé Scientists from the ESRF, together with teams from CEA and CNRS/Sorbonne Université, have found the proof for a liquid-to-liquid transition in sulfur and of a new kind…
“#Dyes from atmospheric carbon dioxide” The electrolyzer developed in the CELBICON project at Fraunhofer IGB synthesizes formic acid from atmospheric CO2. Credit: Fraunhofer IGB Dry soils in Germany, heat records in the Arctic and thawing permafrost soils in Siberia. The consequences of climate change are visible across the globe. To reduce the concentration of carbon…
“#Researchers develop tillandsia-inspired hygroscopic photothermal organogels for atmospheric water harvesting” Credit: CC0 Public Domain As a typical representative of air plants, Tillandsia species can absorb moisture from the air with their leaves. Inspired by this hygroscopic foliage, Prof. Chen Tao’s team at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy…
“#A key to cheaper renewable fuels: Keeping iron from rusting” Credit: ACS Catalysis Washington State University researchers have made a key first step in economically converting plant materials to fuels: keeping iron from rusting. The researchers have determined how to keep iron from rusting in important chemical reactions that are needed to convert plant materials…
“#A touch of gold sends crystals electric with excitement” Atomic model of a Au-SrTiO3 Schottky interface. Credit: University of Warwick A touch of gold—or another noble metal—can change the structure of a crystal and its intrinsic properties, physicists at the University of Warwick have demonstrated in a display of modern-day alchemy. Scientists at the University…
“#Method to develop blue-emitting zero-dimensional all-inorganic metal halides” The doping of Cu into 0D Cs2ZnBr4 caused an evident excitonic absorption peak, and successfully transformed the weakly luminescent Cs2ZnBr4 to a bright blue-emitting material with high PLQY. Credit: CHENG Pengfei All-inorganic zero-dimensional (0D) metal halides are widely applied in the fields of display and solid-state lighting…
