Experts at the U.S. Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory and their collaborators have identified the way to tune the strength and ductility of a class of materials called high-entropy alloys. The discovery may help power-generation and aviation industry develop more efficient engines.
The excessive use of fossil resources has led to a rapid increase in the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere.
To build a carbon-neutral society, one of the most effective strategies is to increase the proportion of clean and renewable energy (wind, tide, solar, etc.), which can notably lower greenhouse gas (CO2) emission.
Green hydrogen is seen as a beacon of hope in the energy and mobility revolution, but it is not yet suitable for mass production.
Recent advances on materials in development since the 1980's at Osaka Prefecture University bring all-solid-state batteries a step closer towards reality.
Plastics have taken the world by storm over the last century, finding applications in virtually every aspect of our lives. However, the rise of these synthetic polymers, which form the basis of plastics, has contributed to many serious environmental issues.
Oil and water do not mix, but what happens where oil and water meet- Or where air meets liquid- Unique reactions occur at these interfaces, which a team of researchers based in Japan used to develop the first successful construction of uniform, electrically conductive nanosheets needed for next-generation sensors and energy production technologies.
