In a review recently published in the open-access journal Polymers, researchers presented a holistic view of advanced polymeric nanocomposites for applications in water treatment.
A novel approach developed by researchers at the University of Birmingham could be used to cover the roots of plants with environments that support bacterial development, resulting in stronger, healthier plants and increased agrarian yields in agriculture.
The cultivation of silk has been done for centuries with the help of domesticated silkworms. However, it has been hard to commercially produce spider silk in the majority as a result of their cannibalistic tendencies.
A Rutgers scientist has created a biodegradable, plant-based coating that can be sprayed on foods to protect them from pathogenic and spoilage microbes as well as transportation harm, to develop ecologically acceptable alternatives to plastic food wrap and containers.
Plastic pollution is a critical environmental issue which requires innovative approaches to mitigate the level of plastic waste entering the environment. Now, a review paper has been published in Materials Science in Semiconductor Processing evaluating the potential use of solid-state photocatalysis for tackling plastic pollution.
Polymers, which are huge molecules built up of smaller molecules that repeat, are present in almost everything humans use in their daily lives. Polymers can be either natural or man-made. DNA, proteins, and materials like silk, gelatin, and collagen are examples of natural polymers, often known as biopolymers.
Electrically conductive polymers, like polyaniline, in medical equipment, automobiles, and much other advanced technology, keep numerous fragile components together.
In an article recently published in the journal Additive Manufacturing, researchers discussed the development of 3D printed crack-free polymer-derived dense ceramic monoliths and lattice skeletons with better thickness and mechanical performance.
In an article recently published in the journal ACS Applied Energy Materials, researchers discussed the development of p-i-n perovskite solar cells on the steel substrates.
In an article recently published in the open-access journal Materials, researchers discussed the development of epoxy particle foam (EPFs) and novel expandable epoxy beads (EEBs).
