Researchers at Oxford University have published work comparing the rheology of spider and silkworm spinning dope – the liquid material from which solid fibres are spun (Nature Materials, Nov 06). Critical to the su...
Researchers from Delft University of Technology and FOM Foundation have successfully made and 'tuned' the world's smallest piano wire. The wires are made of carbon nanotubes that measure approximately 2 nanom...
Military personnel, chemical workers, and others could benefit from a new synthetic rubber material tailored with liquid crystals. The material might be used to make body suits to protect chemical-industry employees from...
"Black gold" is not just an expression anymore. Scientists at the University of Rochester have created a way to change the properties of almost any metal to render it, literally, black.
The process, using a...
A thin mist of silver, packed in oxide or nitrite, settles on the window pane like a transparent film. No more than a few nanometers thick, this layer is translucent yet capable of deflecting heat. The sun-protection nan...
Alfred University’s Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology (CACT) will share in a $831,500 grant from the New York State Office of Science, Technology and Academic Research (NYSTAR) to improve solid-oxide fuel cell...
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has awarded North Dakota State University (NDSU), Fargo, $1.25M in funding to undertake the initial six months of an effort to demonstrate a direct power conversion b...
Malvern Instruments will exhibit the recently introduced Bohlin Gemini HR nano rheometer at the 2006 British Society of Rheology (BSR) annual meeting (11-12 December 2006, Manchester, UK). Malvern is also one of the main...
A University of Utah physicist took a step toward developing a superfast computer based on the weird reality of quantum physics by showing it is feasible to read data stored in the form of the magnetic "spins" ...
Clariant announced today it will increase its focus on value creation by reducing the company’s cost structure, cutting net working capital and strengthening its performance culture. At a total estimated cost of CH...
