Performing maintenance operations within a nuclear plant puts extreme stress on equipment, due to very high temperatures that are hard for components to withstand without degrading. Recently, some researchers at MIT and elsewhere have developed a radically new approach to create actuators that could be used in such very hot environments.
Uniqsis has published details of a new flow-through protocol developed by the Lamaty Group at Universite de Montpellier (France) on a FlowSyn™ Multi-X system that provides efficient ring closing olefin metathesis.

Materials researchers from the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland have worked in cooperation with the Université Grenoble Alpes, France, to develop a technique for enabling advancement of the lithium-sulfur battery. Theoretically, lithium-sulfur batteries have the ability to provide remarkably more energy when compared to the currently used traditional lithium-ion batteries.
Light initiates a number of chemical reactions. Experiments conducted at the Laser Centre of the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IPC PAS) in Warsaw and the University of Warsaw's Faculty of Physics have demonstrated for the first time that increasing the intensity of illumination a few reactions can be considerably faster.
Dr. Geoff Edgell's white paper highlights the benefits of full-scale testing in offsite construction, revealing insights from Lucideon's structural labs.
A team of researchers at North Carolina State University have created a new approach for controlling the behavior of cells on semiconductor materials, using light to change the conductivity of the material itself.
While smartphones continue to get increasingly sophisticated and resilient, the same cannot be said about the display screen. The Gorilla Glass cover used for most high-end cell phones tends to shatter easily, leaving owners with little choice but to pay for an expensive replacement screen or buy a new device altogether.
Polymeric aerogels are nanoporous structures that combine a few highly desirable properties of materials, such as mechanical and strength flexibility. It is virtually impossible to optimize a substance thought to be the final frontier in lightweight materials.
Researchers at Fraunhofer Institute have developed a novel method that can be used to bend sheet glass into unconventional or complex shapes using laser beams. This breakthrough approach paves the way for a new range of promising products for designers and architects.
