Although human eyes are said to be the windows on the world, it is the fingertips that enable man to touch with it.
Climate warming and the looming depletion of fossil resources are driving up demand for electric automobiles. The price of lithium, which is required to power electric vehicles, is also rising as a result of the rising demand. Evaporation or filtration procedures are used to extract lithium from salt lake brines—however, a considerable proportion of magnesium dissolved in the brine has made lithium mining difficult.
Handbags that are fashioned from “leather” made from a fungus, are going to be the trend in the forthcoming days.
In an article recently published in the journal Materials, researchers discussed the development and characteristics of the composite films of pea starch and e-polylysine.
