IK4-CIDETEC is taking part in the European SHINE project for developing self-repairing materials for sectors such as transport, construction and renewable energy. The use of these self-repairing materials will increase the useful life of roads, expansion gaps, anti-vibration systems or materials for construction, for example, thus reducing the generation of waste and the risk of accidents.
Bacteria’s ability to cling to virtually any surface is a vexing problem in the medical community.
At the edge of the Muir College parking lot sits a structure shaped like an enormous tan igloo encircled by a chain-link fence. An upright wooden post carved into a face like a totem with a sweet, sleepy expression guards the entrance, offering no hint of what goes on within.
"Avalanches" -- the crackling behavior of materials under slowly increasing stress, like crumpling paper or earthquakes -- may have a novel facet previously unknown, say Cornell researchers.
For the first time, scientists have observed how droplets within solids deform and burst under high electric voltages.
Dynaflow, Inc. has developed a new specialized experimental technique to determine the resistance of soft coating materials to cavitation erosion.
In accelerated erosion tests of thermoplastics or elastomers, a sampl...
The first international “Science Award Electrochemistry” from BASF and Volkswagen goes to Dr. Naoaki Yabuuchi, Tokyo University of Science, Institute for Science and Technology, Tokyo, Japan. The jury of experts from BASF, Volkswagen and representatives from the world of science selected Yabuuchi for the outstanding results of his research on different battery technologies. Yabuuchi showed among other things how new battery materials can improve the efficiency of lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries – a fundamentally new battery concept, which is currently a focus of research.
At a building dedication ceremony held today, Southern Research Institute leaders said that rapid business growth in engineering research and development necessitated the construction of a new $5.6 million high-tech engineering laboratory on its Engineering Research Center (ERC) campus in Birmingham.
Infinite Power Solutions, Inc. (IPS), a U.S. clean-technology company and global leader in manufacturing solid-state, rechargeable batteries, today announced the development of a new all-solid-state rechargeable battery technology with low manufacturing costs and record energy density.
Imagine you could flip a switch and abruptly increase the sensitivity of a SPECTRO ICP-OES by an order of magnitude. Suddenly your ICP instrument has advanced into the sensitivity range of a glow discharge sector field mass spectrometer. You can not only forgo use of a tongue twisting name with 40 letters, but also save two thirds of your material analysis instrument costs.
