In a paper, ‘Understanding the Nature of Superhard Graphite,’ published in the Scientific Reports journal, an international research team headed by Artem R. Oganov from the Stony Brook University has confirmed the structure of a new type of carbon.
A research project headed by scientists from the University of Warwick has discovered that nanodiamonds, which are nano-scale carbon pieces, can help remove crystallized fat from surfaces. The project aims at transforming the capability of washing powders to remove dirt in environmentally friendly low-temperature laundry cycles.
Abakan has reported that PComP, an innovative high-performance nanocomposite coating range from Powdermet and MesoCoat, has won the prestigious R&D 100 Award from R&D magazine, which has recognized the product family as the most important materials science innovation of 2012.
Zyvex Technologies’ division, Zyvex Marine has collaborated with Pacific Coast Marine to fabricate long-lasting and lightweight marine closures such as doors and hatches utilizing nanocomposites.
North Carolina State University researchers have developed a novel technique to fabricate ultra-thin-film solar cells without compromising the solar energy absorption capability, thus paving the way to reduce production costs of solar cells.
Researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) have developed nitrogen-enriched iron-carbon nanorods, which can be used as a low-cost alternative to platinum catalysts used in microbial fuel cells (MFCs).
Using carbon nanotubes, Rice University scientists, Bruce Weisman and Satish Nagarajaiah, have developed a new class of paint named ‘strain paint,’ which is capable of detecting strain in airplanes, bridges and buildings.
Research carried out at North Carolina State University to identify better methods for genetic material packaging to aid in gene therapy has led to findings that could significantly impact gene therapy research and DNA-based electronics.
A collaborative study by researchers from Hong Kong Polytechnic, Rice University and Tsinghua University shows that it is possible to build single layered carbon nanotubes measuring 1 m in length. This is significant to researchers who are constantly trying to build advanced materials that could change the landscape of power distribution systems.
Research carried out by Patna University botanist, Naheed Ahmad and physicist, Seema Sharma, has yielded an environment friendly method to synthesize silver nanoparticles. The study titled "Biosynthesis of silver na...
