Rising heat and humidity are narrowing the environmental window in which data centers can rely on direct air-side free cooling without active humidity control. The study found growing out-of-spec hours across major data center regions, with tropical markets and parts of the southeastern United States facing the strongest constraints.
Researchers identified galvanic corrosion between deposited zinc and current collectors as a major, previously underappreciated cause of irreversible zinc loss in anode-less aqueous zinc batteries. A PVDF/CeF3 hybrid interface suppressed corrosion, guided dense zinc deposition, and enabled longer cycling, lower self-discharge, and pouch-cell energy densities exceeding 90 Wh L?¹.
Researchers have developed a solar driven catalyst material that harnesses the energy of a single photon to reduce carbon dioxide and oxidize organic waste at the same time, and produce valuable chemicals in both reactions.
The composite materials industry has experienced significant growth in sectors such as aerospace, railway, naval and renewable energy, thanks to its ability to provide lightweight, strong and durable solutions.
China is set to significantly expand its caustic soda production capacity as it seeks to meet surging domestic demand from various sectors, mainly alumina refining, battery materials, and cleaning product manufacturing.
Researchers at Ames National Laboratory are advancing the discovery of materials for rare-earth-free permanent magnets by combining fundamental physics with artificial intelligence.
Onto Innovation’s Tucson-based subsidiary 4D Technology announced today the launch of the 4Di InSpec™ SR roughness measurement system - a novel, portable, vibration-immune optical system for high-precision 3D surface roughness measurement at the point of use.
A major step in energy storage development hummed to life this month as researchers flipped on a new battery production line at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.
Researchers developed a machine learning framework to map ESG-driven conflict risks across energy transition mineral mining projects, using 112,766 conflict events and 16 environmental, social, and governance indicators. The study found that environmental factors drove most modeled risk, with tungsten showing the highest overall risk, platinum the lowest, and lithium most affected by water-stress-related environmental risk.
This study models how China’s graphite export adjustments could cascade through global trade networks and reshape the graphite global value chain. It finds that deep-processing graphite exports strengthen industrial competitiveness, while countries dependent on imported upstream graphite products remain vulnerable to supply shocks.
