TitanSilver, an innovative, highly durable and malleable building material from Kalzip’s foldable aluminium range, was specified by architect, MPC Consultants for roofing the impressive new Warwick Lodge Dental Centre in Thorpe Bay, Essex.
Oxford Advanced Surfaces Group Plc, the advanced materials company, announced that it has developed a 1nm thick, environmentally friendly Onto coating that acts to protect silver against tarnishing.

Researchers have created a new type of invisibility cloak that is simpler than previous designs and works for all colors of the visible spectrum, making it possible to cloak larger objects than before and possibly leading to practical applications in "transformation optics."
Futuristic discs with a storage capacity 2,000 times that of current DVDs could be just around the corner, thanks to new research from Swinburne University of Technology. For the first time researchers from the university's Centre for Micro-Photonics have demonstrated how nanotechnology can enable the creation of 'five dimensional' discs with huge storage capacities.
Using DNA not as a genetic material but as a structural support, Cornell researchers have created thin sheets of gold nanoparticles held together by strands of DNA. The work could prove useful for making thin transistors or other electronic devices.
Ever since the 1940s, chrome has been used to add a protective coating and shiny luster to a wide range of metal products, from bathroom fixtures to car bumpers. Chrome adds beauty and durability, but those features come at a heavy cost. Though it's cheap to produce and harmless to consumers, the industrial process to create it is dangerous for workers and pollutes the environment.
By creating a model of the active site found in a naturally occurring enzyme, chemists at the University of Illinois have described a catalyst that acts like nature's most pervasive hydrogen processor.
The researc...
A new sponge-like material that is black, brittle and freeze-dried (just like the ice cream astronauts eat) can pull off some pretty impressive feats. Designed by Northwestern University chemists, it can remove mercury f...
Researchers at UCLA have developed a new method for producing a hybrid graphene-carbon nanotube, or G-CNT, for potential use as a transparent conductor in solar cells and consumer electronic devices. These G-CNTs could p...
A recently launched field portable XRF/XRD instrument developed by inXitu Inc. has been awarded the Editors' Choice GRAND GOLD Prize as the most outstanding new product at the 2009 PITTCON conference and technical exhibition (March, Chicago, IL).
