Simulations have led to the fabrication of a polymer-DNA gel that could be used in tissue regeneration and robotics.
Biodegradable polymer materials have been widely explored over the past few years for the treatment and repair of tissues and organs, and a new study published in Frontiers in Materials has investigated repairing Achilles tendon injuries with these advanced materials.
Conductive coordination polymers are hybrid materials that offer a range of beneficial properties, many of which make them suitable for implementation in the next generation of electronic devices.
The University of British Columbia (UBC) scientists have created an economical, non-toxic coating for nearly any fabric which reduces the infectivity of the virus that results in COVID-19 by approximately 90%.
Fused deposition modeling is a 3D printing technology that has been explored for several industrial applications over the past few years. Writing in SN Applied Sciences, a team of researchers has presented a trial to convert a polymer fused deposition modeling 3D printer to print clay materials for ceramic devices.
The field of organic solvent nanofiltration has recently gained significant attention in materials sciences due to its advantages over conventional techniques. A paper published in the Journal of Membrane Science has explored the rapid fabrication of covalent organic polymer membranes for use in this field.
Hydrogen is considered a vital component of the energy transition: it can be produced from solar or wind power and therefore stores green energy in form of an environmentally friendly energy carrier, providing energy also at night and during periods of calm winds. Hydrogen also acts as a climate-neutral fuel for fuel-cell cars and trucks, enabling greater ranges than battery-powered vehicles.
A pioneering plastic created at RMIT University repels dirt and liquids—similar to a lotus leaf—then breaks down quickly once in soil.
Porvair Sciences high performance, precision manufactured Vyon® porous plastics are perfect support materials for chromatographic resins used in the isolation and purification steps of pharmaceutical drug and vaccine production.
The United States generates more plastic trash than any other country – about 46.3 million tons of it -- or 287 pounds per person a year, according to a 2020 study.
