A new study suggests that the need for applying chemical treatments to fabrics in order to achieve properties such as magnetism or fluorescence could one day be eliminated by cotton that is grown with molecules endowing these appealing properties.
GreenMantra Technologies, a swiftly growing clean technology company that manufactures high-value polymer products from waste plastics, and Sun Chemical, the largest producer of printing inks in the world, have struck a deal to jointly create polymers from recycled polystyrene waste for use in ink formulations.
Physicists from UCLA have invented a new technique for synthesizing a distinctive new molecule that can, in due course, be used in fields such as food science, medicine, and others. The study also demonstrates the technique for analyzing chemical reactions on a microscopic-scale by applying tools of physics, and has been published in the Science journal.
It is a known fact that glass is omnipresent; while anyone is viewing outside through a window or scrolling down a smartphone, chances are that a glass layer exists between the person and the item being viewed.
Researchers at TU Wien have developed a new cloaking technology: a special type of material is irradiated from above in a manner such that another beam of light can pass in an entirely uninhibited manner.
NPL research on failure mechanisms in lithium-ion batteries, performed in partnership with UCL, NASA, the US National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and the European Synchrotron Research Facility (ESRF), has won The Engineer's 2017 Collaborate to Innovate Award in the Safety & Security category.
