This year’s €10,000 WACKER Silicone Award was presented today to Professor Ulrich Schubert, who holds the Vienna University of Technology’s chair of inorganic chemistry. Dr. Rudolf Staudigl, President and CEO of Wacker Chemie AG, said that Schubert had been chosen because of his trail-blazing work on metal-silicon complexes and his materials science studies such as the sol-gel process.
National Coatings’ new state-of-the-art laboratory has the capability to provide breakthrough research and development results for the coating industry in the years ahead. This new center, equipped with cutting edg...
Clemson scientist Stephen Klaine has been awarded two $400,000 EPA grants to study a subject that did not exist a decade ago. Klaine is part of the young field of nano-ecotoxicology: the investigation of the impact that nanoparticles have on the environment.
Carbon dioxide contributes to the greenhouse effect, but practicable solutions for its capture and storage have not really been found. However, it might be possible to kill two birds with one stone if carbon dioxide could be used as a raw material.
Using an Andor Technology Electron Multiplying CCD (EMCCD) camera in combination with an imaging spectrograph and a sheath flow cuvette, researchers at the La Jolla Bioengineering Institute in California, have been able ...
The tiny, nanoscale materials - quantum dots - Mathew Maye and his research team create in his Syracuse University chemistry laboratory could potentially make an important contribution to the nation's ongoing quest to become energy independent.
Combat-related injuries have long plagued the military in part because of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Imagine being able to spray a compound fracture with microcapsules that deliver a drug to bolster the immune system,...
A Princeton-led research team has revealed surprising information about how electron behavior influences the conduction of electricity in a class of high-temperature superconductors.
Researchers in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Leicester have developed a new synthesis method, which has led them to the discovery of fluorescent silicon nanoparticles and may ultimately help track the uptake of drugs by the body's cells.
Now, a novel ion trap geometry demonstrated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) could usher in a new generation of applications because the device holds promise as a stylus for sensing very small forces or as an interface for efficient transfer of individual light particles for quantum communications.
