A team of scientists has created a chiral assembly by blending inorganic polyoxometalates and organic cyclodextrin molecules.
Separating carbon dioxide molecules from gas mixtures requires materials with extremely fine pores. Researchers from Friedrich Schiller University Jena, in cooperation with the University of Leipzig and the University of ...
Origami is a paper folding process usually associated with child's play mostly to form a paper-folded crane, yet it is, as of recently a fascinating research topic. Origami-inspired materials can achieve mechanical properties ...
In a study published in the journal Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering, researchers from Sichuan University have unveiled significant insights into the structure–performance relationships of metal–organic frameworks ...
The U.K. needs an evidence-led and proportionate regulatory approach for genetically modified (GM) crops to realize the technology's benefits for human health, agriculture and the environment, according to a new Royal Society ...
Membrane separation technology offers great potential due to its low energy consumption and continuous operation. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are ideal membrane candidates due to their abundant species, high porosity, ...
Natural gas consists of light hydrocarbons such as methane and ethane. Such gases are more potent greenhouse gases than CO2, are constantly released into the atmosphere from natural gas wells, and are more difficult to store ...
A research team has synthesized a new polyoxometalate-based metal-organic complex that they then tested as a catalyst for the oxidation reactions of various sulfides. They found that the complex possesses excellent catalytic ...
As the COVID-19 pandemic scattered and isolated people, researchers across Virginia Tech connected for a data-driven collaboration seeking improved drugs to fight the disease and potentially many other illnesses.
Non-precious metal catalysts (NPMC) have strong potential in energy conversion devices due to their excellent oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) performance in fuel cells. Since in most NPMC materials, the accessible active ...
