In a study published in the Physical Review Letters journal, researchers from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) and the Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel) have shown the possibility of negative turbophoresis phenomenon. The movement of impure particles or dust in a turbulent flow, in an "impossible" direction is considered as the negative turbophoresis phenomenon.
An international team of scientists have discovered a safe sodium-based material which could be used as a cost-effective alternative to the lithium-based conductors currently used in rechargeable batteries.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology ICT have developed a novel, cost-effective coating technique using micro-scaled conjoined hollow aluminium oxide spheres to protect components against heat and oxidation. Steam and gas turbines, reactors, temperature sensors, waste incinerator generators and combustion chambers are subjected to temperatures as high as 1000°C, and the new coating technology will benefit in these applications.
Scientists at chemist James Tour’s lab at Rice University have discovered a cost-effective method to create flexible films of molybdenum disulfide for hydrogen catalysis and energy storage applications.
Rutgers University researchers have predicted spin dynamics using new electronic structure algorithms and the power of the Titan supercomputer. This development could aid in finding out new materials that have superconducting properties.
Toyota is collaborating with the Brookhaven National Laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy to explore the molecular structure and monitor chemical reactions in rechargeable magnesium batteries. Mg batteries are considered as an ideal candidate for replacing the existing Li ion batteries due to the abundance of Mg and its greater storage capacity. Lithium ion batteries have a lot of limitations in cost, durability and energy density and are not ideal for large-scale uses such as in electric or hybrid vehicles.
Researchers at Brookhaven National Laboratory have performed three studies on the electrochemical reactions that occur in nickel, cobalt, and aluminum (NCA) lithium-ion batteries. They studied average material morphologies as well as atomic-scale asymmetries to analyze the electronic and structural and degradations of these batteries.
Researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have developed a new technique to analyze multi-phase electrical properties of thermoelectric materials. They have found that combining various solid phases could improve the performance of thermoelectric materials.
Peak Scientific is delighted to be exhibiting once again at SABIC Technical Meeting from 2-5 November, Al-Jubail Industrial City, Saudi Arabia.

An international team of scientists, including postdoctoral scholars and students from the US and Italy, has developed a -273.144°C cooled chamber for a prospective experiment to study about ghostlike particles called neutrinos. This work was supported by the Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) in collaboration with the Department of Energy's Office of Science and National Science Foundation in the US Lawrence Berkeley National Lab.
