After 30 years in development, the National Aeronautics Space Administration’s (NASA) James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) was launched on December 25, 2021, from the European Space Agency’s launch site at Kourou in French Guiana.
Velo3D, Inc., a leading metal additive manufacturing technology company for mission-critical parts, has announced its first Sapphire® XC delivery.
YINCAE is excited to announce that we have developed and upgraded SMT 88UL to SMT 88UL2, a fully flux residue compatible, room temperature fast flow and easily reworkable underfill.
This study is led by Dr. Shaojun Dong (Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences). At the beginning of this work, researchers wanted to design a simple method to synthesize Co nanoparticles.
A group of researchers has successfully fabricated a thermal detection polymer hydrogel using conjugated polymer nanoparticles and a fluorescence modulation technique, according to a study published recently in the journal Polymers.

Up to 90% of patients who undergo open abdominal or pelvic surgery develop postoperative adhesions, or scar tissue. Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgical approaches can reduce the severity of the adhesions, but the scar tissue still forms. The cellular response to injury -; even intentional injury, such as surgery to repair a problem -; results in a cascade of molecules pouring to the site to heal the tissue.
A 3D printing technology was used to create novel finding of coaxial hydrogel patches as written in the journal Polymers, with the goal of constructing drug-loaded implantable overlays.

In collaboration with an international team of researchers, Michigan State University has helped create the world's lightest version, or isotope, of magnesium to date.
A magnetic field can be used to switch nanolasers on and off, shows new research from Aalto University. The physics underlying this discovery paves the way for the development of optical signals that cannot be disturbed by external disruptions, leading to unprecedented robustness in signal processing.
Secondary batteries, such as lithium ion batteries, need to be recharged once the stored energy is used up. In a bid to decrease our dependence on fossil fuels, scientists have been exploring sustainable ways to recharge secondary batteries.
Researchers from Aarhus University hope to develop a fundamentally new technology aimed at removing harmful per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, PFAS, which have been used by industry in a myriad of products since the 1940s, and which have subsequently accumulated in humans, animals and the environment around the globe.
Hydrogen (abbreviated "H") is the lightest of all elements. It usually consists only of a positively charged proton and a negatively charged electron and is also called protium in this form. But there are also two heavier hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium.
Ph.D. student Imran Deen and Professor Federico Rosei of the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) have been developing a bioactive coating that simulates bone tissue.
