GeoImage™ is the newest Vitrinite Reflectance Measurement System from CRAIC Technologies and is designed to determine the grade of coal and coke by vitrinite reflectance per the ISO 7404-5 and ASTM D2798 standards.
Great promise has been shown by all-inorganic 3D lead-free double perovskites (DPs) consisting of the broadband self-trapped exciton (STE).
Under the guidance of Professor Jianjun Liu from the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, researchers have recently come up with a high-performance solid electrolyte of Li3Zr2Si2PO12 (LZSP) along with space group of C12/c1 (No. 15) from the Na3Zr2Si2PO12 (NZSP) precursor through a method of skeleton-retained cationic exchange.
For green chemistry solutions and the pharmaceutical industry, the formation of new organic bonds in an endurable way is essential. At present, diaryl ether synthesis requires rare transition metal catalysts or requires a huge volume of organic solvents.
Symmetry broken is one of most fundamental elements that consist of the paradigm of emergent physical sciences as addressed by Nobel Laureate P.W. Anderson.
The continued depletion of fossil fuel-based energy resources is leading us towards a growing energy crisis. Consequently, this has set in motion a search for sustainable alternative resources.

A research group headed by Prof. Jin Zhu from the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering, in collaboration with Prof. Jing Chen at NIMTE and scientists at Tsinghua University, proposed a simple method for developing antibacterial lignin-based polyurethane/silver (Ag) composite foam that aids wound healing as wound dressings.
Solid-state batteries for electric vehicles, which offer higher energy density and range compared to contemporary lithium-ion batteries, are still out of reach, owing to challenges posed by the cathode composition. This appears to be a problem that will be solved by a new cathode composition and manufacturing technique.
The arrangement of the elements on the periodic table is done in a way to highlight specific relationships. There are families, groups (the vertical columns), and periods (the horizontal rows).
A research group headed by Dr Sang-Bok Lee and Byeongjin Park from the Department of Functional Composites at the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) successfully developed the world’s first ultra-thin composite film.
A review in the journal Applied Materials Today has discussed biomedical applications and future prospects for plant-based hydrogels. The research was conducted by a team of international researchers from several co...
