In 1842, the renowned British researcher Michael Faraday came up with an incredible observation by chance: A thin layer of water develops on the surface of the ice, although it is considerably less than zero degrees.
Since research performed at The Australian National University (ANU) reduces their existing limitations, an increase in the efficacy of solar panels might be on the horizon.
Researchers at Cornell University have come up with a reliable, skin-tight computing system that's easy to attach and detach, and can be used for a variety of purposes – from health monitoring to fashion.
With the new "Black&Light" adhesives, Panacol has developed a new adhesive technology: deep curing black epoxies. Black epoxy adhesives from Panacol's Vitralit® product range can now be cured with U...

How can we remove carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, from fossil-fuel power plant exhaust before it ever reaches the atmosphere- New findings suggest a promising answer lies in a simple, economical and potentially reusable material analyzed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), where scientists from several institutions have determined why this material works as well as it does.
Scientists from Russia and China have reviewed current progress in the synthesis of bacterial cellulose-based nanocomposites and their potential applications. Their findings have been published in the journal Polymers.
