It’s all a question of the right recipe – in chemistry as in breadbaking: the finished result should be crusty, but not burnt. In the next generation of chemical flame retardants, nanoparticles incorporated i...
Inspired by the remarkable hairs that allow geckos to hang single-toed from sheer walls and scamper along ceilings, a team of researchers led by engineers at the University of California, Berkeley, has created an array o...
Viscotek, the leader in multiple detector characterisation of polymers, proteins and nanoparticulate materials, has received a large multi-instrument order from the prestigious, new Centre for Materials Discovery (CMD) a...
Day-to-day experience teaches us that stretching an object makes it thinner; pushing it together makes it thicker. However, there are also materials that behave contrary to our expectations: they get thicker when stretch...
Bitumen is used in traditional asphalting, a sub-product that remains after successive oil refining, and dry goods, stones that confer stiffness on roads. Bitumen acts as adhesive but, as it is a very viscous material, i...
Computer designers at the University of Rochester are going ballistic.
"Everyone has been trying to make better transistors by modifying current designs, but what we really need is the next paradigm," says ...
Scientists have unveiled a new technology that could lead to video displays that faithfully reproduce a fuller range of colors than current models, giving such a life-like viewing experience that it could be hard to go b...
A Malvern Zetasizer Nano particle characterisation system is one of a number of analytical solutions available to researchers at BegbrokeNano, a new UK centre offering facilities for materials characterisation to compani...
Representatives from the Hitachi organization throughout the world will be reinforcing the company’s expertise in the field of electron optics by making a significant contribution to the 16th International Microsco...
For most people, soap bubbles are little more than ethereal, ephemeral childhood amusements, or a bit of kitsch associated with the Lawrence Welk Show.
But for Johns Hopkins University mathematician William Minicozzi,...
