Nitash Balsara, a battery scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), and Joseph DeSimone of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, have together discovered a non-flammable electrolyte that holds promise for safe lithium batteries.
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology, along with support from BASF, have developed a broad color palette of electrochromic polymer materials that can be used for tinting windows, sunglasses and other such applications that are dependent upon an electric current for producing color changes.
Scientists at the University of Chicago have experimentally observed a quantum phenomenon known as geometric scaling in ultracold, triatomic three-atom molecules. The gigantic three-atom molecules fit inside each other like a set of Russian nesting dolls.
Researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara and The Dow Chemical Company have collaborated to develop an innovative atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) process that may help overcome the hurdles that have so far prevented common use of controlled radical polymerization. The new process does not utilize metals. It uses an organic-based photocatalyst instead.
Weatherford International plc closed the previously announced sale of the Company's engineered chemistry and Integrity drilling fluids businesses to an affiliate of The Lubrizol Corporation, a Berkshire Hathaway company, for a purchase price of $750 million, subject to a customary post-closing working capital adjustment.
ReportsnReports.com adds "Water Treatment Chemicals Market By Type and Application Global Trends & Forecasts to 2019", "World Water Treatment Chemicals to 2017" and "Water Treatment Chemicals Markets in China" research reports to its store.
Emery Oleochemicals, a world leader in natural-based chemicals announced that construction activities of its new technologically advanced bio-polyol plant located in Cincinnati, Ohio has reached mechanical completion. The plant will further strengthen Emery Oleochemicals' ability to provide wide range of Eco-Friendly Polyoyls products and customer service.
A group of scientists led by researchers at the Université de Versailles' Institut Lavoisier in France has worked out how to stably gift-wrap a chemical gas known as nitric oxide within metal-organic frameworks. Such an encapsulated chemical may allow doctors to administer nitric oxide in a more highly controlled way to patients, suggesting new approaches for treating dangerous infections and heart conditions with the biologically-active substance.
Pure Grown Diamonds announces a scientific breakthrough with the unveiling of the first-ever, world's largest, laboratory-cultivated brilliant white diamonds that are indistinguishable from mined diamonds, even under a microscope, yet cost 30 to 40 percent less – just in time for New Year’s Eve when millions of Americans get engaged.
In India, approximately 70 per cent of the population uses water not from taps but primarily that from under the ground. Leaching into it are harmful substances such as agrochemical residues, the arsenic of Himalayan ore veins, and hexavalent chromium produced from leather tanneries. This contamination has come to be seen as a societal problem, having caused health problems for as many as 50 million people.
