Researchers developed machine-knitted magnetoactive textiles that combine wireless charging, biomechanical sensing, and tactile feedback in a single textile transducer using a soft magnetic fiber and knitted electromagnetic coils. The system charged a 7.4 V battery, detected motion signals up to 3,000 Hz, produced haptic forces up to 4.2 mN, and was demonstrated in choker, glove, and sleeve prototypes.
A delicious chocolate chip cookie all comes down to its bake. A minute too long and you'll be munching on a crunchy cookie.
Mechanical microembossing altered the surface structure and near-surface PLA/PBAT distribution of 70/30 blend films while preserving previously reported water-repellent behavior. Under controlled incubation with Bacillus subtilis, patterned films showed greater biodegradation-related mass loss than untreated films, with the largest loss reaching 7.50% after 115 days.
Some of the most important discoveries in materials science and structural biology come down to a simple question: where, exactly, are the atoms- The arrangement of atoms determines nearly everything about how a material behaves in the real world — how strong it is, how it conducts electricity, how a battery stores energy, or how a drug binds to a cell.
Researchers developed bPDMS@Fe, a self-healing silicone elastomer that adheres strongly to tissue and other surfaces, then weakens under UV light for controlled removal. In mice, a nine-channel cortical electrode using the material recorded seizure-related brain activity on days 7 and 14, while separate histology experiments tracked tissue responses through day 28.
Why does one material withstand years of stress while another fails? The answers are hidden within the microstructure, often at the atomic scale.
Researchers used ultrasound-assisted carbonation to control water confinement in fresh cement paste, producing a highly refined pore network with 96.8% of pores below 200 nm. The resulting paste combined high specific compressive strength, greater high-frequency sound transmission loss, strong strength retention after water saturation, and cumulative CO2 uptake of 7.11% of cement mass after 28 days.
Superconductivity has many important practical applications, including creating powerful magnets used in high-resolution medical scans, transporting electricity efficiently, and building ultra-sensitive measuring devices.
Researchers developed a light-responsive spiropyran and multi-walled carbon nanotube hybrid that accelerated Bisphenol A degradation under simulated solar irradiation and generated reactive oxygen species linked to pollutant breakdown. The catalyst also reduced cytotoxicity in MCF-7 cell tests and retained its crystalline structure across four reuse cycles, though its degradation efficiency declined gradually.
The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS, President Dr. Ho Seong Lee) has re-measured a key transition frequency of the strontium (Sr) atom for the first time in 88 years since 1938, using a photonic grating chip, and has established a new absolute frequency value with a measurement uncertainty reduced by more than 50 times.
