In the first study to look at what happens over the years to the billions of pounds of plastic waste floating in the world's oceans, scientists are reporting that plastics - reputed to be virtually indestructible - decompose with surprising speed and release potentially toxic substances into the water.
IntertechPira, in partnership with the OLED Association, is pleased to announce the 11th annual OLEDs World Summit 2009 to be held in a beautiful new location, the Hotel Kabuki in San Francisco. As the only event dedicat...
Srinivas Aluru recently stepped between the two rows of six tall metal racks, opened up the silver doors and showed off the 3,200 computer processor cores that power Cystorm, Iowa State University's second supercomputer.
Researchers in France, Germany, Switzerland and the UK have discovered new electron properties that could lead to useful applications in computers and lasers. The study, published in the journal Nature Materials, was fun...
Naturally occurring organic matter in water and sediment appears to play a key role in helping microbes convert tiny particles of mercury in the environment into a form that is dangerous to most living creatures.
Borealis, a leading provider of innovative, value creating plastics solutions, has completed the plastics industry's first assessment of the Water Footprint of plastics materials. The findings will be discussed at th...
How do you handle the tiny components needed for constructing nanoscale devices? A European consortium has built two microrobotic demonstrators that can automatically pick up and install carbon nanotubes thousands of tim...

The webinar series focuses on a semi-quantitative method for the optimization and scale-up of hydrodynamically limited antisolvent crystallization process. This protocol combines in situ Process Analytical Technologies (PAT) with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to facilitate the production of a knowledge based scale-up strategy for this mixing limited crystallization process.
Research at the University of Liverpool has found how mirror-image molecules gain control over each other and dictate the physical state of superstructures. The research team studied ‘chiral’ or ‘different-handed’ molecules which are distinguishable by their inability to be superimposed onto their mirror image.
