Professor Runwei Li’s group at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) has devised a nano-liquid-metal-based extremely powerful stretchable electrode (NHSE) for a variety of electronic skin (e-skin) functionalities, including human healthcare monitoring and human-machine interaction.
New research has been published with the aim of evaluating the processing and refinement characteristics of carbon black and graphene nanoplatelets within a matrix of nitrile butadiene rubber.
Researchers from Japan have prepared synthetic rubber which possesses identical tensile strength as natural rubber, with implications for the global rubber industry and the possibility of reducing reliance on this important natural material. Their research has been published online in ACS Applied Polymer Materials this week.
In a recent study published in the journal Polymers, researchers from China demonstrated a new method to recycle the waste produced by the rubber industry.
Electric vehicles (EVs) require cheaper, more effective, and longer-lasting batteries that will not burst while in use or pollute the environment if they are to become widely popular. The scientists at the Georgia Institute of Technology believe that they have identified rubber—a common material— as a possible and beneficial alternative to the existing lithium-ion batteries in rubber.

"I think you're on mute." This was the most-used phrase of 2020, according to Human Resources Online.
( Cranfield University ) Cranfield University researchers in partnership with Meditech Gloves, one of the leading manufacturers of high-quality examination and surgical gloves, have shown how energy savings can be made with the development of more sustainable, biodegradable, protein-free, natural rubber gloves.
Metals such as iron and calcium play a crucial role inside the human body, so it's no surprise that bioengineers would like to integrate them into the soft, stretchy materials used to repair skin, blood vessels, lungs and other tissue.
Cementex, the safety tool specialists, announces the availability of its insulating rubber apron, now available with a new belt strap and is ideal for working on or around battery storage systems. The apron is a good choice for technicians who have to reach over energized conductors to perform standard maintenance. The new belt strap allows for easy cinching at the waist to help decrease the risk of the apron dragging across batteries.
