As oranges are peeled, they spray a tangy, citrus scented oil into the air. The main compound in the fragrant mist is limonene, which can be collected from discarded peels and used in flavorings, perfumes and all-purpose cleaners.
A team led by University of Minnesota Twin Cities researchers has discovered how subtle structural changes in strontium titanate, a metal oxide semiconductor, can alter the material's electrical resistance and affect its superconducting properties.
A team of researchers led by chemists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory has learned that an electrolyte additive allows stable high-voltage cycling of nickel-rich layered cathodes. Their work could lead to improvements in the energy density of lithium batteries that power electric vehicles.
Scientists from the University of Birmingham have described how microscopic crystals grow and change shape in molten metals as they cool, in research that is breaking new ground in alloy research and paves the way for improving the tensile strength of alloys used in casting and welding.
Solar energy is considered to be a clean and renewable source of energy. Generally, Solar cells have a semiconductor material that has the potential to absorb sunlight and produce electricity.
The award-nominated rPET honeycomb material developed by EconCore, specialist provider of technology for cost efficient continuous production of honeycomb cores is being harnessed by the Formula Electric Belgium team for their Titan race car which was unveiled to the world last week (Tuesday the 24th of May).
Selectivity refers to the ability to control the products and byproducts of a chemical reaction. Scientists are attempting to increase selectivity in industrial chemical processes to improve chemical product quality, eliminate wasted byproducts, and minimize harmful byproducts, such as CO2 emissions.
Most manufacturing businesses rely on the synthesis of organic chemicals and polymers. The new “electrifying synthesis” technologies, which combine traditional synthetic chemistry and electrochemistry, bring us a step closer to a more sustainable future.
Professor Ulrich Kortz is a trailblazer in the research of anionic metal-oxo clusters, commonly known as polyoxometalates (POMs).
